Eagles add four new dates to Las Vegas Sphere residency ‘due to demand’

Eagles have added four new dates to their residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere “due to overwhelming demand”.

The ‘Hotel California’ rockers have performed at the state-of-the-art venue in Sin City since September 2024 and were due to wrap the run on Saturday (15.03.25).

However, they have now extended the residency with new dates on September 5, September 6, September 12, and September 13.

This will bring the total number of shows to 36.

Tickets will go on general sale on Friday, March 28 at 10am PT via www.eagles.com.

Eagles’ guitarist Vince Gill previously admitted performing at the Sphere is a “trip”.

The 67-year-old rocker explained how playing the multi-billion-dollar venue differs from standard concerts because the crowd are more immersed in the visuals than the band.

The sphere-shaped amphitheatre boasts a 16K resolution wraparound interior LED screen, 4D physical effects and the world’s most-advanced audio grade sound system.

And not only are the fans awe-struck by the visuals, but the musicians feel like they are “moving” onstage as everything around them is “tilted”.

Speaking to American Songwriter, Gill said of the unique experience: “It’s staggeringly massive.

“I was getting kind of where I felt like I was going to fall over because things are tilted, and you think you’re moving, but you’re not. It’s a trip. It’s the most people I’ve ever been ignored by when I’m playing. You’re playing, and they’re all staring at all the stuff on the ceiling. They’re not paying any attention to you. It’s kind of fun, really.”

He added: “The whole point of that show and that building is the visual side of it.

“I never wanted to see anybody running around on the stage and yelling at me and being aerobic and bombs going off and pyro and whatever. And it’s a great show.”

U2 were the first band to play the venue last September, with the 40-show residency ‘U2:UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere’.
