Adele announces rescheduled Weekends With Adele Vegas dates

A total of 32 shows will be played

Adele fans rejoice! The “Hello” singer has announced rescheduled dates for her long-delayed Weekends With Adele residency in Las Vegas on November 18th at Caesars Palace. In addition to the 24 rescheduled shows, eight new shows have also been announced. The residency will now run from November 18, 2022 through March 25, 2023 with a show on Christmas Eve.

A select number of tickets will be available across all 32 performances. There will be two opportunities to purchase tickets for these shows via Ticketmaster. Access will be limited with priority given to fans who held tickets for the original show dates or had previously registered and been waitlisted for the Weekends With Adele Verified Fan Presale. A Refunded Fans Presale is Wednesday, August 10th available only to fans who had tickets refunded for the original run of dates prior to August 1st. The General Verified Fan Presale will be Thursday, August 11th to those who were waitlisted for the initial run. Eligible fans will receive an email invitation from Ticketmaster on Wednesday, August 3rd.

“Words can’t explain how ecstatic I am to finally be able to announce these rescheduled shows. I truly was heartbroken to have to cancel them,” she writes on Instagram. “But after what feels like an eternity of figuring out logistics for the show that I really want to deliver, and knowing it can happen, I’m more excited than ever! Now I know for some of you it was a horrible decision on my part, and I will always be sorry for that, but I promise you it was the right one. To be with you in such an intimate space every week has been what I’ve most been looking forward to and I’m going to give you the absolute best of me. Thank you for your patience, I love you!”

In January, Adele was scheduled to kick off her Weekends With Adele Vegas residency, but indefinitely postponed the entire 24 run engagement the day before it was to begin. She cited COVID and supply chain issues for her reasoning, but it was later revealed it was canceled due to creative issues.

At the time, the pop superstar was eyeing for a late July or early August start that would run through the end of the year. In April, it was reported that she was “finalizing a deal” to move the residency to The Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood where she would add another two thousand seats per night and have full creative control, but a decision was made to stay at The Colosseum.

In a recent interview with the BCC promoting her two night headlining BST Hyde Park in London shows earlier this month, the pop star said she stood by her decision even though it left her “devastated.”

“I definitely felt everyone’s disappointment and I was devastated and I was frightened about letting them down. I thought I could pull it together and make it work and I couldn’t, and I stand by that decision,” she says. “I’m not going to just do a show because I have to or because people are going to be let down or because we’re going to lose loads of money. I’m like, the show’s not good enough.”

The decision to cancel at the eleventh hour was too late for many fans who trekked the Sin City to see the singer, leaving mixed reactions. The night before the first show was scheduled, she was seen FaceTiming fans who were shopping for merchandise at The Colosseum shop adjacent to the venue’s entrance. Fans who presented a concert ticket to one of Adele’s shows received a gift tote bag with a specifically made T-shirt, magnets and keychain.

Adele has reportedly parted ways with her longtime creative director, Esmeralda “Es” Devlin, and has hired Take That’s Kim Gavin and Stufish for a new direction. Gavin has won a BAFTA for his work and has been behind every Take That tour since 1992. Stufish are the production designers behind the Rolling Stones 60th anniversary tour.

Sources state the team will “develop a new show as everything from the Es show has been scrapped,” which includes a 60 piece choir backing her for a “Skyfall” opening. Adele and Es reportedly clashed in “explosive arguments” over the Caesars Palace production and staging. Caesars Entertainment had also reportedly invested heavily in redesigning the main Colosseum dressing room to accommodate Adele’s needs with the hopes of having her there until 2024.
