Goo Goo Dolls, known for their unique name, will embark on a five-show residency at the Venetian Theatre next spring. This event signifies a shift for the Grammy-nominated rock group, famous for chart-topping hits like “Iris,” “Slide,” and “Name.” Just last month, they graced the stage at Mandalay Bay, and before that, they performed at Virgin Hotels in September 2022.
This upcoming residency marks their first significant run on the Strip since their previous performance at the Joint at the old Hard Rock prior to the pandemic.
The residency dates are set for May 15, 16, 20, 22, and 23, 2026. Ticket prices start at $65 plus fees and will be available for purchase at 10 a.m. PT on Friday, November 21, through Ticketmaster, VenetianLasVegas.com, and The Venetian Resort box offices.
Weirdly Grand Performances
“Weird Al” Yankovic is enjoying a thriving moment in his nearly 50-year-long parody music career, having sold out all six nights of his June 2025 residency at the Venetian in mere minutes. As a result, he has upgraded his venue to the expansive MGM Grand Garden Arena for a stop on his “Bigger and Weirder” tour set for September 18, 2026.
The performance is expected to deliver the full spectacle fans have come to adore: impressive video displays, numerous costume changes, rare tracks alongside beloved classics like “Eat It,” “Amish Paradise,” and exciting new mash-ups, all supported by his original band and an additional four-piece horn section.
Tickets will be available for purchase at 10 a.m. PT on Friday, November 21, via AXS.com.
Exclusive DJ Residencies at XS
Wynn Nightlife has just confirmed the extension of their residency with two of EDM’s leading artists.
The Chainsmokers have officially prolonged their Las Vegas residency at XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club until 2029.
“Performing at Wynn over the years has been an extraordinary experience,” the duo remarked in a joint statement. “We truly appreciate the strong relationship we’ve developed with the casino and nightlife team.”
The Grammy-winning pair has dominated nearly every major holiday event at Wynn since 2017, and they will appear this Friday at XS during the F1 Grand Prix celebrations.
Additionally, Wynn recently announced that Calvin Harris will return for a fresh two-year residency starting January 2026. This upcoming engagement will be Harris’s first association with Wynn since his original 2011 residency that launched the Strip’s EDM trend. The last Vegas residency for Harris was in 2024 at the Fontainebleau.
