VEGAS CHANGES EVERY DAY. KEEP UP.

Local news. Business. Food. Sports. Things to do. Nightlife. Vegas life. One quick show every morning.

Follow once. Get Vegas every morning.

The kings are back in the dome!

The Eagles return to Sphere on Friday, November 13 and Saturday, November 14, both nights at 8:30 p.m., and this is not just another weekend on the calendar.

These are the band's first Sphere shows since September 18 and 19. That gap runs nearly eight weeks, and the room has been waiting.

The Longest Run in the Building Is Back Friday

The residency launched in September 2024. It now stands at 74 scheduled shows, the longest-running residency in Sphere history.

The latest proof came on October 20. Sphere added January 8 and 9, 2027 to the run because of demand, pushing the total from 72 to 74 shows.

Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit lead the current lineup. Vince Gill and Deacon Frey, the son of the late Glenn Frey, complete the band on stage.

The catalog does the rest. The residency features songs including "Hotel California," "Take It Easy," "Life in the Fast Lane" and "Desperado," played under Sphere's wraparound LED screen.

Sphere sits at 255 Sands Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89169, just behind The Venetian.

14 Shows Left, and Every One Is a Friday or Saturday

Here is the part most fans miss. There is no cheap midweek night hiding in this schedule.

Every remaining show is a Friday or Saturday at 8:30 p.m. Pick your weekend, because the weekend is the whole menu:

  • November 13 and 14, 2026
  • November 27 and 28, 2026, Thanksgiving weekend
  • December 4 and 5, 2026
  • December 11 and 12, 2026
  • January 8 and 9, 2027
  • January 15 and 16, 2027
  • January 22 and 23, 2027

That is 14 shows left, and January 23 is the last date currently announced. Tickets for the newest January shows started at $175, with taxes and fees included in that price.

The Thanksgiving pair needs a warning label. Hotel rates and Strip crowds climb that weekend, so book the room before you book the victory lap.

How to Play Friday Night Right

First, treat the end date as real until the band says otherwise. The Sphere run sits inside the band's Long Goodbye farewell tour.

Henley told CBS Sunday Morning that 2026 might be the final year the Eagles perform live. His words: "I feel like we're getting toward the end, and that will be fine, too."

The January additions bought fans three more weekends. Nobody has promised a fifteenth show beyond January 23.

Second, arrive like a local. Doors open 90 minutes before showtime, so a 7 p.m. arrival turns the walk in, the screen reveal and the first song into one smooth night instead of a sprint.

Third, pick Friday over Saturday if your group can swing it. Same band, same dome, same 8:30 p.m. start, and Friday leaves your whole Saturday open for the rest of race week building across the city.

74 shows in, this is still THE room and THE band pairing of this era in Las Vegas. Friday night, the dome lights up again. Be in it.
