Will there be an opportunity to meet and greet the artist at this event… especially Selena?
We have not been informed of a meet and greet as of yet, but if something changes I’ll be sure to send you a note!
In the event that an artist meet and greet does become available, it is usually only available when a certain type of ticket is purchased. So, if you’ve already purchased tickets, you would need to purchase an additional ticket with meet and greet credentials. Your best bet would be to listen in to see if the sponsoring radio station is offering this type of access, because meet and greet opportunities are pretty rare.
Do you know what songs each artist will preform?
Hi Myra,
Unfortunately we do not know the setlist for the show. We are happy to share it after the show if anyone wants to send it our way!
Is it okay for young teens to go to this without parents? I am the parent, and have 3 tickets-2 for kids, one for me but would rather give it to a young friend who is ‘dying’ to go than use it myself. The kids are 13 years old and don’t have seats on the main floor. I plan on waiting around the area. Thoughts?
Hi Mitch,
This is up to the discretion of the parent(s). However, I’ve seen it go both ways. Some parents allow their young teens to attend without adult supervision, and others do not. The venue does not have any rules stating that an adult must be present in order for teens to attend the concert, so it would really depend on your comfort level and your kid.
Perhaps other parents reading this have attended in past years and can expand upon my response. If so, can you please leave a comment addressing Mitch’s concerns?
Hey Mitch, I know that there is a parent room in the Allstate Arena, because when I have gone to concerts there my parents always use the parent room, you don’t need a ticket and it is free.
I was at this show with my then 13 year old daughter last year. I would not recommend sending kids in without an adult.
I have been a fan of Joe Jonas and his brothers for 6 years now, and i still haven’t met them and i am driving 6 hours to see Joe in here in Chicago for Jingle Bash. IF there is any POSSIBLE way you could hook me up with meet and greets, i need at least two since i am not quite 18 yet.
Hi Kristin,
Right now we haven’t received word of a meet and greet, but if anything changes we’ll let you know! Hope you have a great time at the show. Sounds like you’re a huge fan
Will new artists be added? This looks like a weak list.
Karmin and Keenan Cahill have been added.
Hi! This is my second jingle bash and i can not wait! If there is a meet and greet please let me know, i would love to meet justin bieber if hea going to be there that is haha! My friend is also a huge jonas brothers fan so im guessing she’d love to meet him also! Cant wait to see the show im such a huge fan:)
Katie,
I’ll be sure to post something if we are able to get any meet and greets.
How come Justin Bieber can’t go this year? ): I was looking forward on finally meeting him.
Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew the time-line up for the Jingle Bell Bash… since I would be going just for Joe Jonas, and I would really also like to meet him, I use a wheelchair and wasn’t able to go to his concert when he came to Chicago in September, becuase it was standing room only and they didn’t have any accessible seats. I really wished I could of gone.
Stacy,
You may want to contact the venue (Allstate Arena) or B96 directly regarding your inquiry. We do not currently have any wheelchair accessible seats at this time, or know the timeline of the show.
If we won tickets from B96 will be get any special extras? ie. meet artists, tshirts etc.
Who did you win the tickets from? I would check with them to see if they are giving out any extra swag. If you won tickets from B96 directly, you may want to contact them via the options given in this link http://b96.radio.com/b96-info/contact-b96/.
What time should we get to the Allstate Arena for Jingle Bash? Do we need to get there early if we have tickets?
The doors open at 5PM, but the show is scheduled to begin at 6PM. You really do not need to get there early if you already have tickets, as your seats are reserved to you.
