Adele is currently engaged in a major residency in Las Vegas, extended until June 2024. With her special concerts, the singer is breaking records and earning a whopping fee every night
Adele will be giving adding extra concerts to her residency . The English superstar is currently on a break from her successful residency in Las Vegas, titled "Weekends with Adele." But it's not over: 32 dates are still scheduled from January 19 to June 15, 2024, for a symbolic total of 100 performances at the Colosseum, the venue at Caesars Palace where Céline Dion shone for years. In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the performer of "Easy On Me" assures that she has been "very, very involved" in the concert's conception, down to the smallest details: "It's real hard work on another level because of what happened with Covid. As soon as Covid restrictions were lifted, everyone went on tour, and there was no one left to hire. Then, everyone got Covid, and we were all getting tested."
Thus, Adele has asked the audience to come to her in Las Vegas since she will not go on tour to promote the songs from her latest album "30," which has sold over 300,000 copies in France alone. Thanks to this impressive residency, the singer is earning a handsome sum! According to the New York Post, the artist would earn two million dollars every night she takes the stage in Las Vegas. This represents $64 million collected during her concerts from June to November last year and a grand total of $200 million when she concludes her residency on June 15, 2024. This residency has already made history as Adele breaks a record: the highest average revenue for a female artist in residency in Las Vegas. With approximately $2.2 million per concert, she surpasses Lady Gaga's "Enigma" residency, which brought in over $1.5 million per show, as reported by chartsinfrance.net.
However, the two pop stars, Adele and Lady Gaga, are far from the staggering figures of U2's current residency in Las Vegas. The first 17 concerts given by the Irish rock group in the Sphere were applauded by 281,000 spectators and allowed Bono's band to collect $109.8 million, averaging $6.5 million in profits per concert.
