The stint will begin December 30 and include a show on New Year’s Eve, with eight additional 2025 performances — at least for now — that will include Valentine’s Day weekend.

“Janet Jackson is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in pop music,” said Bobby Reynolds, senior vice president of AEG Presents Las Vegas. “We could not be more thrilled to close out 2024 with her return to the Las Vegas Strip and her venue debut at our award-winning Resorts World Theatre, and to kick off 2025 with a run of sure-to-be-unforgettable shows. This is a residency fans won’t want to miss.”

The Resorts World residency is expected to include a duet between the 58-year-old singer and her late brother, Michael Jackson, on their 1995 single, “Scream.” The duet already features on Jackson’s current “Together Again” tour, which wraps in October in Europe.

Miss Jackson’s dates are December 30 and 31; January 3 and 4; and February 5, 7, 8, 12, 14, and 15. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. PT Wednesday, August 28 via AXS.com.

Bleau Tears

Tears for Fears will perform three nights at the BleauLive Theater inside the Fontainebleau. The shows will take place on October 30 and November 1-2.

“It’s been a while since we’ve been on the road and are very eager to share this live show experience with everyone,” band members Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith said in a joint statement. “You can expect to hear tracks from our 2022 album The Tipping Point as well as fan favorites. Be sure to listen closely though as there may be something new sprinkled in there as well.”

Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Friday, August 23 on tearsforfears.com.

F1 Giving Away Something for Free?

F1 has announced it will host the Las Vegas Grand Prix Fan Festival on the Strip during race weekend, and the general public won’t have to pay to attend. The event promises live entertainment across from the Wynn on November 22 and 23.

This is a welcome change from last year when F1 sold $200-$500 tickets to see the Chainsmokers in the same space on the Friday before race day. None of the free acts have been announced nor have they been announced for the competing free Neon City Festival taking place downtown from November 22-24.
