Top Las Vegas Artist Residencies in 2024

The hands-down hottest Las Vegas residency of 2024 is The Killers. Tickets for the ten shows at Caesars Palace have long been sold out. So if you want to see the band with other humans, tickets are now only available via second-hand ticket sellers.

If you are not a fan of The Killers, you may ask yourself why the ticket is so hot. Well, The Killers are from Vegas, so in addition to their international popularity and this being the group’s 20th anniversary, they have a huge and passionate local following.

In May 2024, it was announced that Keith Urban’s HIGH in Las Vegas residency at Fontainebleau will be taking place at the property’s BleauLive Theater. The four-time Grammy-award winner is planning to perform music from his upcoming album as well as favorites such as “Blue Ain’t Your Color”, “Told You So” and “Kiss A Girl”

Note that Keith Urban performed a duet with Carrie Underwood who also has one of the top 2024 Vegas residencies.

Earlier in 2024, the same venue at Fontainebleau will host one night performances from Daryl Hall + Elvis Costello and The Smashing Pumpkins. But Keith Urban’s residency is the theater’s first.

The legendary Mariah Carey returns to Vegas in 2024 with her The Celebration of Mimi Live in Las Vegas residency at Park MGM. The concerts mark the 19th anniversary of the release of the album The Emancipation of Mimi. The shows will likely feature popular songs from that album, such as “We Belong Together” and “Shake It Off,” as well as songs from throughout her illustrious career.

Her return to Vegas marks a break from performances since 2020, where Carey has primarily performed her awesome holiday music. This also marks her first performance at Park MGM, as her prior two Vegas residencies occurred at Caesars’ Palace.

For those not aware, Venetian has repurposed one of their theaters into a very intimate dinner-style 1,000-seat theater. We can’t think of anyone better than Christina Aguiiera to be among the first major residencies here.

If you want to see the “Genie in a Bottle” in person, keep in mind that this is a very premier and intimate experience. All tickets to see Ms. Aguilera come with minimum spending requirements for food and beverage. In other words, plan to be required to order and drink a premier bottle of something!

The Venetian says, “Christina Aguilera’s Voltaire performances will be a completely new show like nothing she has ever done before. In contrast to traditional concert shows, the intimate venue will allow Christina to invite guests into a musically dynamic and immersive piece of art.”

In addition to Ms. Aguilera, Kylie Minogue has been playing Voltaire in late 2023 and has several more dates scheduled in 2024.

Premier Tip: Visitors to the Voltaire say the headline performance starts well after the ticketed time, so it may be worth calling the box office to find out what time Ms. Aguilera will be going on stage.

The popular Grammy-award-winning band will return to Park MGM in 2024 with a residency. Although Maroon 5 is expected to play their popular hits, including “This Love,” “Sugar,” “Girls Like You,” and “Moves Like Jagger,” they have been known to throw in some curveballs with some of their newer music.

Frontman Adam Levine never disappoints, and we look forward to seeing the 2024 version of M5LV!

For early 80s nostalgia seekers, New Edition will have a mini-residency at Wynn Las Vegas in early 2024.

The group for these performances and the performances earlier in 2024 was composed of Ronnie DeVoe, Bobby Brown, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Ralph Tresvant, and Johnny Gill. Bobby Brown became even more mega-famous thanks to his high-profile relationship with the late Whitney Houston. Other members of New Edition later formed Bel Biv Devoe. Johnny Gill also went on to have a nice run as a solo performer.
