After rumors began circulating weeks ago, Janet Jackson has finally officially confirmed that she will be performing an upcoming residency in Las Vegas. The shows will all take place at the 5,000-capacity Resorts World Theatre, and will start up at the end of December during New Year’s week. The Janet Jackson: Las Vegas residency will begin on December 30, with a special New Year’s Eve show scheduled for the following night. There will also be eight additional performances set for 2025, on January 3, 4, and February 5, 7, 8, 12, 14, 15.

“Janet Jackson is undoubtedly one of the biggest names in pop music,” said Bobby Reynolds, senior vice president of AEG Presents Las Vegas. “We could not be more thrilled to close out 2024 with her return to the Las Vegas Strip and her venue debut at our award-winning Resorts World Theatre, and to kick off 2025 with a run of sure-to-be-unforgettable shows. This is a residency fans won’t want to miss.” (Variety)
