(NEWARK, NJ) -- Diana Ross, the radiant icon and legendary entertainer, will perform at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) on Monday, October 27, 2025. Showtime is 7:30pm.

After a record-breaking world tour and sold-out 2024 show at NJPAC, Ms. Ross returns to Newark to share a lifetime of memories with her iconic hits. The timeless classics include "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "Stop! In the Name of Love", "Upside Down", “I’m Coming Out,” “Reach Out and Touch,” “Endless Love,” and many more.

Tickets range from $69-$259 (plus applicable fees) and are available for purchase online. New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) is located at One Center Street in Newark, New Jersey.

The Diana Ross magic has touched music, fashion, stage, film, and TV.  Ms. Ross’ international achievements were acknowledged by the prestigious Kennedy Center Honors in Washington D.C. (2007). The National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences bestowed its highest honor, The Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, in 2012.

Her portrayal of Billie Holiday in the classic film Lady Sings the Blues produced an Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe Award.  Starring as an aspiring designer in the 1975 romantic comedy Mahogany, the role was a perfect opportunity to personally sketch and design all the fashion in the timeless film.

Additional career milestones include: Induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, The Songwriters Hall of Fame, National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences Hero Award, NAACP Entertainer Award, Billboard’s Female Entertainer of the Century Award, and The Soul Train Legend Award.
