“We can’t wait to see you in Vegas!” Dead & Company wrote online of their 2025 Las Vegas residency at the Sphere. The group’s latest round of “dazzling” Sphere concerts at the iconic venue is one of many must-see performances that Sin City has to offer in 2025.
With a long list of other highly anticipated Vegas residencies — from Backstreet Boys’ reunion to Kelly Clarkson’s intimate “Studio Sessions” — there’s something for every live music fan to bet on this year. (And sorry, but Harry Styles is not planning a Sphere residency.)

Backstreet Boys will make their Sphere debut this summer for the boy band’s Into the Millennium residency. “It all came together in the perfect timing,” Kevin Richardson told Rolling Stone of Backstreet Boys’ residency. “The record label wanted to re-release a Millennium anniversary edition with remastered versions of those original songs anyway. Now, we get to do it at a great venue, because when we did Millennium, it was 1999 into 2000, and our concept for that was futuristic.”

Set for March and April, the country superstar will conclude her Reflection: The Las Vegas Residency this year. “From a production standpoint, we can do something that we can’t necessarily do when we’re packing up all our gear and going from place to place,” Underwood previously told Rolling Stone. “From a switching-things-up perspective, when you’re on the road, you’re in different towns, and all the people in the audience are from that general area of the world. What I love about Vegas is you’re in one place, but everybody is from everywhere.”
