Musical Shows in Vegas: Concerts for End of 2024 and 2025 Include Coldplay, Creed, and U2
Las Vegas continues to be a rockin' entertainment destination, and it has announced its new musical show schedule for the end of the year and for 2025, respectively. Coldplay will have its biggest show in Vegas in June of 2025, while Creed will welcome the New Year at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Meanwhile, despite disappointing ticket sales, the Sphere extends its U2 run.
This just in: Coldplay has just announced its largest Las Vegas concert to date, set to take place at Allegiant Stadium on the 6th of June, 2025. The British rock band, known for its genre-blending hits and immersive live performances, will perform in front of an estimated crowd of 65,000 fans. This event will mark a historic moment for both Coldplay and the Las Vegas music scene, and it further marks the city's position as a premier hub for concerts and shows in true Vegas fashion.
Coldplay live at the Allegiant
Fans eager to see the band live can sign up for the Allegiant Stadium presale, which runs through 7 am PT on Thursday, October 10, through Ticketmaster. The presale begins at 9 am PT on Friday, the 11th of October, with the general on-sale starting at noon, Pacific Time, on the same day. Anticipation for the show is expected to reach fever pitch, with tickets likely to sell out quickly due to the band's immense popularity and the size of the venue.
Coldplay's announcement comes on the heels of the release of their latest music video for "All My Love," which was filmed entirely in downtown Vegas. The video shows iconic Vegas landmarks and adds a playful twist to the city's vibrant culture, much like previous videos filmed in the city by artists such as Bruno Mars (24K Magic), Katy Perry (Waking Up in Vegas), and U2 (I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For).
In the music video, lead singer Chris Martin appears in disguise, donning a wig, black glasses, and a dirty suit as he moves through various Las Vegas locations. One standout moment sees Martin cashing in a casino chip for two dozen red balloons at the Golden Gate Hotel & Casino. He then walks through the Fremont Street Experience, handing the balloons to pedestrians and street performers, spreading joy and adding an air of whimsy to the already vibrant atmosphere.
The "All My Love" video also features scenes at some of Las Vegas's most iconic spots, including the Little White Wedding Chapel, The D's Sigma Derby, and Dino's, a well-known dive bar. Martin's surprise appearance at Dino's a few weeks ago, when he sang "All My Love" as a prank on karaoke night, has since become the stuff of local legend.
Creed celebrates reunion with Las Vegas New Year's Eve shows
In other Las Vegas music news, Creed has announced two special reunion concerts to ring in the new year at Caesars Palace's Colosseum. The shows will take place on December 30 and 31, and will feature the band performing their biggest hits in celebration of their reunion. Fans of the rock group, known for tracks like "Higher" and "With Arms Wide Open," are thrilled to see the band back together after years apart.
Sevendust will serve as the opening act for these New Year's shows. Presales for Creed's Las Vegas concerts are already underway, and tickets for the general public go on sale at 10 am PT on Wednesday, the 9th of October through Ticketmaster.
U2's Sphere concert run extended despite lagging sales
Meanwhile, over at the Sphere, U2's groundbreaking concert experience, "V-U2," has been extended despite underwhelming ticket sales. The show, co-directed by guitarist Edge and his wife, Morleigh Steinberg, will now continue playing until December 24. Despite struggling to attract crowds in comparison to the Sphere's year-old Postcard from the Earth film, the extension suggests that the high-tech venue is betting on the continued appeal of U2's performance style.
Fans who missed out on previous showings still have time to experience the visually thrilling concert, set in the famous globe-shaped venue that has become a landmark in Las Vegas. Tickets for the extended run are available now, offering music lovers one more chance to witness U2's creative collaboration in one of the world's most unique entertainment spaces.
