POSTPONED

Celine Dion
Where: The Theater at Resorts World Las Vegas
When: Originally set to begin in November 2021, Celine Dion and AEG announced in October that she was pushing back her residency. "Severe and persistent muscle spasms" have kept her from rehearsing for the show, the promoter confirmed. No word yet on her rescheduled dates, but fingers crossed the singer will have a speedy recovery.

Adele
Where: Colosseum of Las Vegas at Cesar's Palace Hotel
When: On the heels of 30, her first studio album in six years, Adele was supposed to kick off a Vegas residency on April 15, performing two concerts per weekend. However, due to COVID-19-related complications, she has postponed it to a later date. The affair marks the only live shows the singer has confirmed—so if you want to hear weepers from her latest release in person, that eventual trip to Sin City is probably your best bet.
