Britney Back To Vegas… One More Time
• Britney Spears is returning to Las Vegas for another residency. The singer’s new show, called Britney Domination, is opening at the Park Theater at the Park MGM (formerly the Monte Carlo) in February 2019. The news was initially announced during a lengthy half-hour reveal on The Ellen Show‘s YouTube channel, during which Spears dramatically emerged to greet fans and sign autographs — but did not speak — as she was escorted into a waiting limo.
This past New Year’s, Spears wrapped a four-year run down the Strip at Planet Hollywood’s Axis Theater — a very popular show that has helped to solidify Las Vegas as a music destination. As Caesars President of Entertainment Jason Gastwirth recently told Variety, “It takes a certain kind of artist, one with a wide-scale fan base, a great music catalog and who’s capable of bringing it every night. A good rule of thumb would be, they’re identifiable by one name.”
With Las Vegas music booking shared by Live Nation, AEG and Caesars Entertainment — the three largest concert promoters in the world — the landscape has become increasingly competitive, with high-profile residencies by Lady Gaga, Gwen Stefani and Queen with Adam Lambert becoming a major selling point. In August Aerosmith also announced a 2019 residency at Park MGM — the show, aptly dubbed “Deuces Are Wild” is tied to the band’s 50th anniversary and launches Saturday, April 6, 2019 at the Park Theater. Tickets for Domination go on sale Friday, Oct. 26, at 10am PT.
