After wrapping up a successful run of 34 shows at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Adele has announced an extension of her Las Vegas residency.<\/span><\/p>\n The Grammy-winning artist made the announcement during what was supposed to be her final show on March 25, revealing that she will be returning for a new run of \u201cWeekend With Adele\u201d shows starting on June 16 and ending on November 4.<\/span><\/p>\n The new dates feature 34 additional performances, bringing the total number of shows to 68.<\/span><\/p>\n During the final show of the first run, Adele told the audience that she knows that playing to 4,000 people for 34 nights is not enough and that she is coming back for a few weeks in June to make sure anyone who wants to see the show can see it.<\/span><\/p>\n In addition, the singer also announced that she will be filming the upcoming dates and releasing a concert film to ensure that anyone who wants to see the show can experience it.<\/span><\/p>\n The residency has seen significant success since it began in November 2021, nearly 10 months after it was initially planned.<\/span><\/p>\n Originally slated to run between January 21 and April 16 of 2022, the event was postponed only a day before it was supposed to start due to delivery delays and COVID-related issues.<\/span><\/p>\n Half of Adele\u2019s team and crew were down with COVID at the time, making it impossible to finish the show.<\/span><\/p>\n Adele previously spoke about the challenges of working through the delays, calling it a \u201cdevastating\u201d time creatively.<\/span><\/p>\n She explained that the stage setup wasn\u2019t right and lacked intimacy, saying that she tried too hard to give it those things in such a controlled environment.<\/span><\/p>\n \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n The new run of Adele shows promises to be just as intimate and soulful as the previous run, featuring the singer\u2019s signature blend of powerful vocals and heartfelt lyrics.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>\r\n\r\n Critics are saying that Adele’s cancellation of her Las Vegas residency in early 2022 was a low point in her career.<\/span><\/p>\n Fans who had already traveled to Caesars Palace were disappointed and tabloids speculated about diva behavior and backstage drama.<\/span><\/p>\n Adele’s struggles with the physical and emotional costs of touring, as well as her private nature, have been well-documented.<\/span><\/p>\n However, despite these challenges, Adele launched her fourth album, 30, in 2021 with a TV special and then announced the residency in Las Vegas.<\/span><\/p>\n The residency was seen as a promising fit due to its higher ticket prices and lower operational costs.<\/span><\/p>\n But, the cancellation of the costly production was a letdown for fans and added to the already existing mental health fatigue from endless schedules and the continuing hazards of COVID-19. Adele later returned to the Colosseum stage to mount “Weekends with Adele,” a reimagining of the show she’d promised.<\/span><\/p>\n Critics note that the show’s focus is on Adele’s voice and that she performs shade and desire as live cinema.<\/span><\/p>\n While it may be difficult to attend the limited residency, Adele’s performances are worth the wait and she delivers an unforgettable experience for fans.<\/span><\/p>\n An intimate and soulful performance<\/span><\/p>\n During the opening night of the residency, Adele returned to the sentiment that the delay was a difficult time but that she and her team had put together exactly what she wanted to deliver.<\/span><\/p>\n The singer expressed her gratitude to the crowd, thanking them for their support and saying that they looked amazing.<\/span><\/p>\n She also apologized for not being able to go off-stage for about 50 minutes, joking that she would have a \u201cshitty face of streamed makeup\u201d for the first part of the show.<\/span><\/p>\n The new run of Adele shows promises to be just as intimate and soulful as the previous run, featuring the singer\u2019s signature blend of powerful vocals and heartfelt lyrics.<\/span><\/p>\n With a concert film to be released, fans around the world will be able to experience the magic of Adele\u2019s Las Vegas residency from the comfort of their own homes.<\/span><\/p>\n The new dates are sure to sell out quickly, so fans are advised to purchase tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":154748,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[852,3588],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-154747","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art-events","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154747"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=154747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/154747\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/154748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=154747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=154747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=154747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}A successful residency with a delayed arrival<\/strong><\/h2>\n
