As predicted, U2 has extended its residency at the MSG Sphere, which the Irish rock stars opened — along with the dome-shaped venue behind the Venetian — on Sept. 29. Eleven 2024 shows were announced on Thursday, via a Twitter post citing “unprecedented demand.”
The dates are: Jan. 26, 27, and 31; and Feb. 2, 3, 7, 9, 10, 15, 17, and 18. The Feb. 9 and 10 shows fall on Super Bowl weekend. This bring the total number of “U2:UV Achtung Baby” dates to 36.
Following a pre-sale limited to paid U2.com subscribers — which opened Thursday morning and closes at 10 p.m. Saturday — tickets will go on sale to the general public starting Wednesday, Oct. 25 at 11 a.m. via Ticketmaster.
When They Come Around (Everyone Knows)
If you happen to be in town tonight, the world’s worst-kept secret show is happening tonight (Oct. 19) at the 800-capqacity Fremont Country Club at 601 Fremont St. Here, at 8 p.m., Green Day will perform a warm-up show for its appearances at the “When We Were Young” festival this Friday and Saturday at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds. Tickets just went on sale here.
The band wasn’t really trying to keep the show a secret, or it wouldn’t have posted the date and location on its Instagram account on Wednesday.
Bad Bunny, Free Jack Harlow
Puerto Rican rap star Bad Bunny announced on Thursday two Las Vegas dates for his “Most Wanted” tour, Feb. 23 and 24 at T-Mobile Arena. According to Live Nation, fans must register here for the chance to buy tickets. This is to “help block bots and scalpers.” Once registration closes on Oct. 22, Live Nation says that fans will be randomly selected to receive a code granting them access to buy tickets on Oct. 25.
Rapper Jack Harlow will perform a free concert at the Chelsea at The Cosmopolitan on Nov. 16, which is the weekend of the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix. The 21+ show is open exclusively to SiriusXM subscribers and Pandora listeners, who can RSVP here.
Tons of race week VIPs are expected to attend, however, so don’t get your hopes up even if you register successfully. An asterisk next to the RSVP button notes that “terms apply,” and one of them is that “entry is not guaranteed.”
