Blake Shelton is headed back to Sin City, and this time he’s turning the dial even more country.

The Voice may be behind him, but Blake isn’t slowing down one bit. After selling out six shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace earlier this year, he’s doubling down with eight brand new dates for January 2026. The man tasted Vegas once and decided it wasn’t nearly enough.

“We had so much fun earlier this year, I figured why not do it again,” Blake said in a statement. “This time we’re gonna do it more country, with more cocktails and probably make a few more questionable decisions. Let’s go, Vegas.”

That’s classic Blake. Equal parts Oklahoma grit and honky-tonk humor. And fans can bet the house these shows will sell out fast.

The new residency kicks off January 15 and runs through the 31st, with shows on the 15th, 18th, 21st, 23rd, 24th, 28th, 30th, and 31st. All eight nights will go down at The Colosseum, one of Vegas’s most iconic stages, where everyone from Garth Brooks to Reba McEntire has held court. Tickets open to the general public on August 28 through Ticketmaster, with presale windows hitting earlier for cardholders and Caesars Rewards members. Translation? If you want a seat, you better move quick.

Fans lucky enough to grab a ticket will get more than just the Shelton classics. Expect sing-alongs like “Texas” and “Stay Country or Die Tryin’” alongside cuts from his newest record, For Recreational Use Only. This is a Blake show, which means country anthems, plenty of drinks raised high, and a lot of laughs in between. If you’ve ever seen him live, you know the man doesn’t just play a setlist, he throws a party.

And while he’s running Vegas, Shelton’s name will also be popping up on TV screens nationwide. This fall, he’s debuting his new CBS competition series The Road, a joint project with Yellowstone’s Taylor Sheridan. The show takes twelve rising country singers and drops them straight into the fire as openers for Keith Urban. The winner walks away with $250,000 and a record deal, but the real prize is proving you’ve got the grit to survive on the road. It’s a perfect project for Blake, who built his career one dive bar, one festival, one highway mile at a time.

Between the residency, the new TV venture, and summer festivals already under his belt, Shelton is proving once again that retirement isn’t in his vocabulary. He’s got Vegas casinos wanting more, fans lining up for presales, and a national audience about to tune in to see what kind of chaos The Road will bring.

Las Vegas residencies have a way of putting artists in a different light. Some turn polished, some turn nostalgic. Blake Shelton? He’s leaning into the cocktails, the cowboy boots, and the chance to crank the volume for eight nights straight. It’s not just a show, it’s a gamble that every night will feel like a Friday night honky-tonk dropped in the desert.

And if history tells us anything, Blake Shelton doesn’t miss when he bets on country music.
