We are at the end of August and Autumn is closing in. Before everything turns into a pumpkin spiced nightmare, let’s take a look at the Las Vegas concerts and residencies headed to the Nevada desert this Fall. Huge concerts and major new residencies are headed to town, just as some current residencies are shutting down. Who’s headed to Sin City? And who is packing up to leave?
When it comes to music, sin City is hard to beat. This week in gambling, we’re looking at over 40 amazing artists headed to town between now and the end of December. We’re listing them by month so you can schedule your get. Or if Las Vegas is already in your travel plans, you can just use the chapters we’ve added to this video and skip ahead to find the dates you’ll be visiting. So let’s kick off our fall preview by closing out the last days of summer in September, as Bruno Mars continues his run at Park MGM, and a rare Rob Thomas sighting takes place at Fontainebleau. Of course, the Eagles are still putting butts in seats at the Sphere as well.
The fall Las Vegas concerts continue as David Lee Roth comes out of hiding also at Fontainebleau while Janet Jackson performs at Resorts World, and Pitbull visits Big Blue near the middle of the month. Ricky Martin is still around and playing Caesar’s Palace as the legendary Ringo Star officially brings in fall at Venetian (but he’s not the only Beatle headed to town!). Crowd favorite Tears for Fears returns to Fontainebleau, while Rod Stewart returns to Caesar’s and classic acoustic rockers America perform one night at Virgin Las Vegas. Finally, John Legend performs at the Cosmo on the 26th, followed by the strokes on the 27th. And speaking of Legends, The Who will visit MGM Grand to close out the month. That’s a lot of talent for the month of September… but not even close to the volume of talent headed for Sin City in October!
First up, after taking a couple of weeks off, Mötley Crüe will return for three more shows from the first to the third, as the Beach Boys hit the Venetian. All while Rod Stewart and Wayne Newton continue their residencies. Lionel Richie will play Wynn Las Vegas as soft rock sensation Air Supply performs at the Westgate. Then the ultimate rock and roll legend, Paul McCartney, will take the stage for one night only at Allegiant Stadium on the fourth. Grand Funk Railroad will be at the Golden Nugget, and the high energy music of Earth, Wind, and Fire will light up Venetian!
Then, Stevie Nicks hits T-Mobile Arena while Alanis Morissette visit Caesar’s Palace. Popular eighties band Tesla (and their hair) will perform their Las Vegas concerts at Mandalay Bay. Chance the Rapper thrills crowds at Fontainebleau, and Tears for Fears is back for a few more shows. We close out October with that blue-eyed soul singer, Darryl Hall at Venetian… along with classic rock artists, Jackson Brown and that little old band from Texas, ZZ Top, Rocks the Palms on Halloween!
Now, on to November and the Eagle’s last show on the 8th at Sphere Las Vegas… supposedly, because they just keep adding new shows. So take this end date for what it’s worth. Additionally, their buddy Jackson Browne will return to Venetian the first week of the month, as Park MGM hosts New Kids on the Block. Alanis Morrisette is still angry and back at Caesar’s on the second. Wayne and Donnie keep rolling right along. And Country star Kelly Clarkson opens the Coliseum at Caesar’s on the seventh. Then classic rocker’s Heart come to town in mid-November, performing at Fontainebleau, followed by Pitbull November 21st and 22nd.
Heading into December, the National Finals Rodeo will bring country editions of Las Vegas concerts to town, including legend Dolly Parton to Caesar’s Palace in a week of music that also includes Wynonna Judd at the Venetian, and Laney Wilson at MGM Grand. Of course, Wayne Newton will continue his shows all month long, and guitar phenomenon Santana will fill the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay from the 5th to the 16th. Now technically, fall ends on December 21st. But it seems silly to stop there with only a few days left in the year. So we close out 2025 with the Backstreet Boys, as they return to the Sphere after a four month break to finish what they started with shows from Christmas through New Years. And speaking of things to do for New Year’s Eve, Jennifer Lopez closes us out playing Caesar’s Palace December 30th and 31st.
