Tim McGraw is set to make his return to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace for five special performances on October 23 and 24, as well as November 4, 6, and 7. The celebrated 59-year-old country artist previously stepped in for four December 2025 dates that were canceled by Dolly Parton due to health concerns.

McGraw has achieved over 103 million record sales, including 49 No. 1 singles and 19 No. 1 albums on the Billboard country charts. He follows only George Strait in overall country album sales. (Image: Live Nation)

This upcoming tour, celebrating his extensive three-decade career, does not conflict with Parton’s second set of shows, which were initially planned for September 17-26. This ensures that the Colosseum continues to feature a major artist that it is already connected to.

Tickets will be available starting at 10 a.m. PT on Friday, June 26 via Ticketmaster.

Solo Spectacle

Brandon Flowers will be hosting a unique solo concert at the Wynn’s Encore Theater on Tuesday, October 6. The lead singer of the Killers is promoting his third solo album—his first in a decade.

Thrasher features a tongue-in-cheek title, as it is a country-western album recorded in Nashville, set to release on August 21, with a lead single, “Plans,” premiering this Friday.

Tickets will be on sale starting at 10 a.m. local time on Friday, June 26 via Ticketmaster.

Blues Vibes

Over at Blues Traveler, the band will take center stage at the Bel-Aire Backyard Pool Concert Series located at Durango Casino & Resort on October 11. The 8 p.m. performance is part of an outdoor concert series with a capacity of 1,600, hosted by Clique Hospitality and AEG Presents Las Vegas. Tickets are available starting at $69.17 via www.belairebackyardlv.com.

Michael Jackson Tribute Continues

The acclaimed Michael Jackson tribute show, MJ Live, is moving from Harrah’s to the Saxe Theater at Miracle Mile Shops within Planet Hollywood. The show is set to resume on September 21, just two days after its last performance at Harrah’s, extending its remarkable 13-year journey, which has seen previous performances at Rio, The Strat, Tropicana, and Sahara, resulting in approximately 5,500 total shows since 2013.

Currently, there are two other Michael Jackson-themed shows in Las Vegas: Cirque’s Michael Jackson One at Mandalay Bay and Michael Jackson the Evolution at Orleans Showroom. All shows are anticipating a box-office boost following the release of the recent biopic Michael.
