Adele has announced that she is extending her Las Vegas residency. She announced that 34 more dates will be added between June and November and also explained that she plans to release a live concert film. On Saturday night (March 25), Adele performed her final edition of her ‘‘Weekends with Adele” Las Vegas concert series, which she began in November last year. Adele’s representatives said that she will resume her shows at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace on June 16 and will continue through until November 4.
The June performances are reportedly going to be recorded and released as a concert special, so that Adele fans around the world who were unable to make the shows at her Las Vegas residency will be able to watch them. Adele ended the fans speculation about her plans after her Las Vegas residency came to an end, as she announced the news to a sold-out colosseum crowd about her plans to continue on in June.
She announced to the crowd ”Playing to 4,000 people for 34 dates is not enough, and I know that. So I am coming back for a few weeks in June and I’m going to release it to make sure anyone who wants to see this show can see it.” Adele posted to her Instagram a poster for ”Weekends with Adele” and captioned the post ”See you soon” with a link to the Ticketmaster pre-sale, which opens Wednesday April 5.
The ”Someone Like You” singer kicked off her sold-out Las Vegas residency shows last November, following postponement which was reportedly due to delivery delays and the COVID-19 Pandemic. After announcing the news that she had to postpone her residency, leaving fans devastated, Adele described the situation saying ”It was the worst moment in my career, by far. It was devastating. There was just no soul in it. The stage setup wasn’t right. It was very disconnected from me and my band, and it lacked intimacy. And maybe I tried too hard to give it those things in such a controlled environment.”
Adele continued to explain that the first couple of months were a struggle for her, but her confidence was boosted as people would tell her ”It was a very brave thing to do.” She also carried on to say, ”I don’t think many people would have done what I did. I’m very proud of myself for standing by my artistic needs.”
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Adele’s Las Vegas residency could likely extend into November, as Caesars Palace is reportedly promoting her ‘‘Weekends with Adele” shows as part of a £5 million high-roller package, which is centred around the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, which is scheduled for the same month. There has also been news reports that Adele has been offered over a million dollars per night to continue performing at Caesars Palace.
