Blake Shelton announced a residency at The Colosseum in Las Vegas Thursday.
“If you’re going to have a stake in Las Vegas, you got to do a residency also if you’re an artist,” the 48-year-old country singer told People. Advertisement
He said his upcoming run at Caesars Palace has been in the works for years, but he wanted to postpone the gig until his music & restaurant venue, Ole Red, opened a Las Vegas location.
The performance space will have been up and running for just over a year when Shelton’s residency begins in February 2025.
“While I’m there doing the residency I may end up over at Ole Red jumping on that stage one night,” he said.

Shelton’s residency begins February 5.
“I’ve been so excited to share this news with y’all… Vegas!” he wrote on X.
