Grammy Award-winner Davis will direct and co-produce the tour with MagicSpace Entertainment.
Davis plans to release a new album, "Mannheim Steamroller 30/40," this fall. In celebration of the 30th Anniversary Christmas Tour, tracks will include Christmas fan favorites while selections from Davis' iconic Fresh Aire series and recordings by his daughter, Elyse, will celebrate 40 years of ground-breaking sound. Mannheim Steamroller has sold more than 40 million albums, 28 million in the Christmas genre. With a total of 12 holiday CDs, an average of eight Mannheim Steamroller Christmas albums occupy Billboard's Top Seasonal Chart every year.
