Garth Brooks announces pair of Las Vegas shows
Garth Brooks announced Tuesday that he will headline a pair of shows on the Las Vegas Strip in February.
Dubbed “Garth Brooks: The ONE Man Show,” Brooks will play at Dolby Live at Park MGM on Feb. 4 and 5 with shows starting at 8 p.m.
“I look forward to celebrating my birthday early that weekend in Vegas,” Brooks said in a press release. “Getting to sing and hear everybody singing is my favorite thing.”
Tickets will be on sale at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 22. There are only two ways to purchase tickets, at ticketmaster.com/garthbrooks or through the Ticketmaster App on a mobile device. Prices start at $150.
Prior to his show at Allegiant Stadium in July, Brooks intimated he had been reviewing theaters on the Strip, saying at the time, “Those are a little harder to play a one-man show or a little band thing.”
Brooks headlined Encore Theater from 2009-2014. Brooks’ wife and fellow country star Trisha Yearwood joined him onstage during some of those shows. She took the stage again at the Allegiant Stadium concert.
The crowd’s explosive response reinforced Brooks’ comments beforehand, “People love her, people worship her, she’s one of the greatest singers ever, when she gets to do her thing. I think it’s a no-brainer to do a Garth-and-Trisha show.”
Though not announced for Dolby Live, a Yearwood appearance would be no surprise.
