Global music sensation Celtic Woman has been named the #1 World Albums Artist on Billboard's 2014 Year-End Chart. This is the Emmy nominated group's 6th time receiving that distinction. Its current album release, Emerald Musical Gems, also has been named Billboard's #1 World Album for 2014. Over the past 10 years, each of Celtic Woman's nine CDs has debuted at #1 on the Billboard charts.

Celtic Woman is currently on its Christmas Symphony tour that will finish on December 22 in South Bend, Indiana. Festivities can also be experienced on the Home for Christmas album and live concert DVD. A special EP, O Christmas Tree, is now also available exclusively at Target and Target.com.

In 2015 Celtic Woman will celebrate its 10th Anniversary with a world tour that kicks off in Dublin on January 24th followed by a European tour, an 85-city North American leg that begins in March and multiple dates across Australia and United Kingdom. This is a true celebration of an incredible 10-year journey that has captivated millions.

Since 2005 Celtic Woman has sold more than eight million copies of its nine CDs and eight DVDs, making it the only all-female act to achieve multi-platinum success in the classical crossover and world music genres during the past decade. Having dominated the Celtic music genre to reach millions of consumers (on CD, on DVD, on Public Television, on Tour), the majority of titles ranking Top 10 on the Billboard World Music Charts are Celtic Woman's own catalogue album releases.
