Dead & Company to do residency at the Sphere

Dead Heads rejoice! The concert this summer that was supposed to be the last for Dead and Company is NOT it last. No fading away for this band.

There’s a six week residency coming to the instantly iconic Sphere in Las Vegas!

“In 2023, Dead & Company played their final tour. But there are other ways to make sure the music never stops. And it’s gonna be a ball,” read a note shared in a video to the band’s social media pages on Wednesday, ahead of the official announcement the following day.

Dead Forever kicks off May 16 with three shows scheduled per weekend through the residency’s June 22 wrap date — and fans can anticipate a unique setlist at each performance.

Prospective concertgoers can register for an advance presale now via Seated. An artist presale then launches on Feb. 5 at 10 a.m. PT, while tickets become generally available on Feb. 9 at 10 a.m. PT. More information is available at Dead & Company’s website.

The band, which currently features former Grateful Dead members Bob Weir and Mickey Hart, as well as John Mayer, Oteil Burbridge, Jay Lane and Jeff Chimenti, will mark the third live music act to headline Sphere, which opened in September 2023.
