Las Vegas concerts are about to turn the volume all the way up! Huge shows, legendary residencies, and superstar artists are headed to Sin City in the first half of this year! And we’re covering the performers headed to Sin City over the first half of the year… beginning right here in January with one of the biggest names in country music: Blake Shelton at Caesar’s Palace for eight shows beginning on the 15th. The Eagles residency is scheduled to end in March, but you can still catch them at the Sphere starting on the 23rd. Other performers hitting the Strip in January include Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton, and New Edition performing with Boys II Men on stage at T-Mobile Arena January 30th.
February’s headliners include Chris Stapleton, who will perform two shows at Park MGM on the 4th and 5th, plus the quintessential Boy Band, New Kids on the Block. Also at Park MGM from the 14th through the 28th. Vegas regulars Donnie Osmond and Barry Manillow will be at Harrah’s and the Westgate, respectively. And Backstreet Boys will be back at the Sphere from the 5th to the 15th. Plus classic rock icons Chicago hit the Venetian February 13th through the 28th.
Now despite rumors floating around on social media about Harry Styles and Madonna, there are no confirmations that either will perform in Las Vegas this year. Madonna is interested in a farewell tour which could include Sin City, but officials for Harry Styles say there are no plans for a Vegas stop and there never were. However, Metallica is finishing a European tour, and rumors of their residency at the Sphere do have some truth to them. The band is interested, but any residency would have to be scheduled for the fall, which is part of the reason why this video is only covering the first six months of the year because a lot of shows are going to be added between now and July.
So, moving into March, Jennifer Lopez is returning for a short 3-w week stay at Caesars from the 6th through the 28th, while Luke Comb will pack him in at Allegiance Stadium on the 21st of the month. Also, Alice Cooper will play Planet Hollywood while Foreigner performs at Venetian. And the Eagles last shows are scheduled for March 20th through the 28th, although we all know they may stay longer.
Turning our attention to April, Phish helped open the Sphere two years ago and they return for a nine show set on the 17th. April is also when most of the Las Vegas regulars return to their regular venues. Plus, the ageless Cyndi Lauper is still having fun, and she’ll be at Caesars April 24th through the 29th. Also, some of the musical artists headed to town in May and June include No Doubt and Kenny Chesney. But before we get to those events, here’s a reminder that we’re only covering the first 6 months of 2026. But right now, I can tell you that Ed Sheeran is also slated for July, as are other big name performers, including AC/DC and Guns and Roses, both of whom will perform at Allegiance Stadium this August, followed by the Foo Fighters in September… so stay tuned!
Finally this week, we’ve saved some of the biggest names and best performers for last as we enter the month of May with Morgan Wallen, who will play two shows in Las Vegas on the 1st and 2nd, both of which are selling out quickly. And as promised, No Doubt will settle in for their sphere residency starting on the 6th. But before they can hit the stage, Phish will have to close out their short residency. May will also find old school artists like Babyface at the Palms and Santana at Mandalay Bay, while Rod Stewart finally reopens his Encore Shows residency at Caesars on the 27th.
Rounding out our show with the month of June, Kenny Chesney will perform a short five show run at the Sphere June 19th through the 27th and no doubt continues their Vegas stay wrapping up their residency June 13th. And so, my friends, that’s a wrap for our first show of January. And hopefully we mentioned a few of your favorite artists.
