Sources: U2, Adele expected to extend Vegas residencies
We’re confident the Sphere will host a superstar production in January. Someone already familiar with the venue.
U2 is expected to extend its series at the Sphere at least into January, according to sources familiar with the venue’s bookings. The “U2 UV: Achtung Baby” series is currently on sale through Dec. 16.
And, informed sources report, Adele is planning an extension of her residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace by 24 shows/12 weekends in ‘24. She has four weekends remaining on her original dates, ending with Nov. 3-4.
The Colosseum is open January through March, and most of May and June, around Garth Brooks’ production.
We anticipate announcements within the week on U2’s and Adele’s plans.
At Voltaire, Christina Aguilera went on sale Friday for her residency at the chic nightspot. Her on-sale posting was coupled with what was, in effect, the announcement of her January to March dates.
In addition to Dec. 30-31, Aguilera is booked for eight dates Jan. 5-6 through March 1-2. The “Genie in a Bottle” singer has sold out all of her GA tickets and about 50 percent of table seats. Kylie Minogue opens the club Nov. 3-4.
Residing in the “On Hold” category is Post Malone at Fontainebleau Theater. We feel an announcement is in the offing of his shows over New Year’s Eve weekend. We also feel the 3,800-seat theater will be glorious, and a major player among residency venues on the Strip.
