The 21st day of September is just a few days shy of the start of Earth, Wind & Fire’s new Las Vegas residency, but the limited engagement will still be an affair to remember.
Earth, Wind & Fire will be performing their vast array of hits at The Venetian Theatre inside The Venetian Resort Las Vegas from Oct. 9 through Oct. 19. All performances will begin at 8:30 p.m. PT.
Presale tickets for Citi cardmembers are currently on-sale along with artist and venue presale tickets. General on-sale will be available starting on Friday, April 12, at 10 a.m. PT with tickets as low as $59.95.
This marks the band’s fifth run at The Venetian after hosting residencies in 2018, 2021, 2022, and 2023. Prior to the start of this new residency, the men will embark on the second leg of their tour with Lionel Richie from May 13 until June 16. They will join rock band Chicago in July for their Heart & Soul tour, which concludes on Sept. 7.
Earth, Wind & Fire garnered their first Grammy nomination in nearly 20 years after appearing on Victoria Monét’s “Hollywood” off her Grammy-winning debut album, JAGUAR II. Prior to that, the group’s other foray into contemporary R&B came in 2021 with the release of their Lucky Daye-assisted duet, “You Want My Love.” Per Rated R&B, the single peaked No. 2 on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart, marking the group’s first top 10 single in 28 years.
Prior to his death, founding member Maurice White spoke on EWF’s influence in contemporary R&B and shared, “I don’t really listen to contemporary R&B with an ear for hearing my influence. Music is a spirit unto itself, and all of us musicians influence each other all along the chain.”
