Keith Urban Dishes On Upcoming Las Vegas Residency – Ticket Info
Keith Urban is ready and excited for his next Las Vegas residency.
His first one was back in 2019 at the Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace, and the “Somebody Like You” singer was pretty skeptical about the idea of a residency at the time.
“I resisted a residency in Vegas for a few years. We got asked to come there quite a few years ago,” the Australian country star recalled to Billboard during a Nov. 7 interview.

He explained, “I just didn’t think I would like it because in my head, it just seemed like the word residency just felt like, ‘Oh, you just doing the same show in the same place night after night after night’ and that just sounded like an episode of Severance to me. But when we saw the Colosseum, I was, ‘Oh my god, I think we’ll have a blast in here.’”
And it seems like he really did. “I was surprised how much I loved it,” Urban admitted.
As far as the glitz and glam of it all, the singer wants to take advantage of the Vegas circumstances without going so crazy that the show experience feels inauthentic.
“Somewhere in the middle is hopefully where we can land it,” Urban explained during the interview. “I want to take advantage of being able to build certain things that you can’t disassemble and move and reassemble easily night after night.”
“I want to take advantage of being able to build stuff that’s just going to stay, but the spirit of my show, I’m never going to change that,” he elaborated. “I’m going to have a certain way of playing that isn’t going to be too dependent upon behemoth props and production that kind of sweeps and drowns me. I’ve never been a fan of that for what I do.”
Urban plans to start his new, 16-date Vegas residency on March 3 at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino’s Zappos Theater. Tickets for the event are on sale now.
