It’s going to be a busy season of live music, dance, comedy, acrobatics and other acts at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center, which launches its 2025-26 season this fall.

Tickets went on sale this month for the upcoming season at the center, which marked 30 years in April.

Among the approximately two dozens acts this season, which as usual are divided into categories like dance, cabaret, concerts and other series, is Grammy-winning innovator Bilal, who has worked with Kendrick Lamar, Common, Jay-Z and Beyoncé. The singer and producer blends jazz, soul and hip-hop and kicks off the season with Sept. 12-13 shows.

Venue regular Sandra Bernhard returns Sept. 27 in the Wit & Wisdom Series, while another regular performer, David Benoit, brings his “Tribute to Charlie Brown Christmas” on Dec. 6.

Fans can stay in the holiday spirit with “A Broadway Holiday with David Burnham.” The show is scheduled for Dec 17-18.

People should also get ready for action when the Peking Acrobats flip, jump and perform seemingly impossible moves during the ensemble’s Jan. 17 show, and the Cirque Kalabanté: Afrique en Cirque does its own feats of acrobatics March 21.

The season closes on May 6 with Emmy-nominated trumpeter and vocalist Benny Benack III.
