Mariah Carey Announces 2024 Las Vegas Residency, ‘The Celebration Of Mimi’
Mariah Carey is returning to Las Vegas.
After back-to-back holiday tours, the elusive chanteuse is headed to Sin City with ‘The Celebration Of Mimi’ to commemorate the 19th anniversary of her comeback album, The Emancipation Of Mimi.
All eight performances will take place from April 12 until April 27 at Dolby Live at Park MGM, which was home to several artist residencies, including Usher and Silk Sonic.
LiveNation has teased that the show will include “fan favorites from that album as well as other hits from [Carey’s] unparalleled illustrious career.” Her previous Las Vegas runs were from 2015 to 2017, with her performing her ‘#1 to Infinity’ residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Carey returned the following year in 2018 for “The Butterfly Returns” residency, which wrapped up before the 2020 lockdown.
Tickets will go on sale this Saturday, Feb. 10 at 10 a.m. PT. A presale for Citi cardmembers goes live on Wednesday, Feb. 7 until Friday, Feb. 9.
Other presale options, hosted by MGM Rewards, SiriusXM, LiveNation, and Ticketmaster, go live on Thursday, Feb. 8 at 10 a.m. PT.
Most recently, Carey’s Merry Christmas One And All! Tour set the highest attendance record and sold more tickets per show than any tour she’s had since the Butterfly World Tour in 1998. According to Billboard Boxscore, the holiday-themed tour grossed $29.6 million and sold 214,000 tickets across its 15 dates.
Every year since 2014—excluding 2020 and 2021 because of COVID—Carey has held intimate residencies or toured her two Christmas albums, even though, “All I Want For Christmas Is You” garners more than enough profit of an annual profit.
This past year, the smash hit re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 in mid-November and stayed at No. 2 through the first week of 2024. Billboard Boxscore predicts that Carey could expand her live holiday run beyond the Nov. 17-Dec. 17 window.
