'Oh My God,' Adele fans: She's extending her Las Vegas residency with 34 new dates
Adele fans who missed out on tickets for the "Easy on Me" singer's 32-concert Las Vegas residency are in for a treat.
The British star, 34, announced Sunday that she's extending her stay at The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace.
Her Weekends With Adele residency has added 34 dates, picking back up on June 16 until Nov. 4. The presale starts April 5. Ticketmaster Verified Fans can register for the presale through April 2.
Adele's first string of sold-out shows ran Nov. 18 to March 25.
The singer told her Vegas audience that the June performances will be recorded for a concert film.
"Playing to 4,000 people for 34 nights is not enough, and I know that, I know it's not enough. So I am coming back," Adele said Saturday night in video captured by fans. "I'll be back for a few weeks in June, and I’m going to film it and I'm going release it to make sure that anyone who wants to see the show (can see it)."
USA TODAY's Melissa Ruggieri said the show was "a spectacular two hours, even for casual Adele fans."

"Between the gleaming video elements commandeering the length of the massive Colosseum stage and her vocal curlicues on songs such as 'Take It All' from 2011's sophomore album, '21,' and the gently galloping hit 'Water Under the Bridge,' Adele's presentation thrilled," Ruggieri wrote.
She added, "On every song, whether a newcomer ('I Drink Wine,' from her Grammy-nominated album '30'), or catalog classic ('Send My Love [To Your New Lover],' performed under hot pink lighting), Adele's voice was as impeccable as her sculpted eyebrows and French manicure.
'Worst moment in my career': Adele dishes on postponed Las Vegas residence
This second round of Adele's Las Vegas residency is special given that fans – many of whom had traveled from other countries – were disappointed when the singer canceled her residency at the last minute in January 2022. She apologized with a tearful video on social media.
"I'm so sorry, but my show ain't ready. We’ve tried absolutely everything that we can to put it together in time and for it to be good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID – half my crew are down with COVID, they still are – and it’s been impossible to finish the show. … I can’t give you what I have right now," she said at the time.
In July, Adele told BBC Radio 4 in England that she understood why fans were upset with the delay, but she doesn’t regret her decision to retool the show.
“For some of you it was a horrible decision on my part, and I will always be sorry for that, but I promise you it was the right one,” she said in a statement. “To be with you in such an intimate space every week has been what I’ve most been looking forward to and I’m going to give you the absolute best of me.”
