Las Vegas residency

A series of performances by an artist at one Las Vegas venue over an extended period, often with a production designed for that stage.

Concert residency: A run of performances by an artist at one venue over an extended period. Las Vegas residencies are a prominent form of the broader concert-residency model.
Elvis Presley at the International Hotel: Elvis Presley’s extended Las Vegas engagement at the International Hotel, beginning in 1969. The run helped make the modern Las Vegas residency a major entertainment format.
Concert tour: A sequence of live performances by an artist in multiple locations. A tour moves the production between cities; a Las Vegas residency keeps it anchored at one venue.
Touring economics: The costs, revenues, and logistical tradeoffs involved in presenting live performances across multiple locations. A fixed venue can reduce transport costs and make high-production shows more practical.
The Colosseum at Caesars Palace: A Las Vegas concert venue built for large-scale resident performances. Its design and capacity helped establish the modern arena-scale Las Vegas residency.
Liberace: An American pianist and entertainer known for flamboyant costumes and theatrical performances. His long Las Vegas engagements helped shape the city’s image as a home for star performers.
Music festival: An event presenting multiple performers, usually across several stages or days. A residency centers on one artist’s repeated performances rather than a changing multi-artist bill.
Live music industry: The businesses and workers involved in presenting live musical performances. Residencies link artists, venues, promoters, ticketing, and hospitality into one local market.
Park MGM: A hotel and casino on the Las Vegas Strip that includes the Dolby Live theater. Its theater hosts extended artist runs in a purpose-built indoor setting.
Celine Dion: A New Day...: Celine Dion’s 2003–2007 Las Vegas show at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Its scale and commercial success reset expectations for contemporary residencies.
