Adele is back!
The “Easy on Me” singer announced new dates for her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace on Monday, after she postponed her “Weekends with Adele” performances.
Adele’s residency begins Nov. 18, according to a press release, and eight new shows have been added to the lineup of 24 rescheduled performances.
“Words cannot explain how ecstatic I am to finally announce these rescheduled shows. I was really devastated that I had to cancel them,” the 34-year-old Grammy winner wrote on Instagram.
“But after what feels like an eternity of figuring out the logistics for the show I really want to deliver, and knowing it can happen, I’m more excited than ever!”
Adele continued: “Now I know that for some of you it was a terrible decision on my part, and I will always regret it, but I promise you it was the right one.”
She also shared that she was most looking forward to being in “such an intimate space” with her fans every week.
“I’m going to give you the very best of myself,” she promised. “Thank you for your patience, I love you ♥️ Adele.”
Fans rushed to the comment section of Adele’s post to express their elation at the new tour dates, writing things like, “YESSSSSS FINALLYYYYY……..😩😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️,” “YESSSSS QUEEN!!!! I AM SO PROUD OF YOU ♥️,” and “Omfg I have to be there.”
The residency runs until March 25, 2023. A select number of tickets are available for the 32 performances. Priority will be given to fans who previously had tickets for the original show dates or registered and were on the waiting list.
The shows were initially set to begin on Friday, January 21 and run through mid-April, but were canceled earlier this year due to COVID-19 delays. In a tearful Instagram post, Adele spoke to fans about the delay and offered a blubbering apology.
“I’m so sorry, but my show isn’t done yet. We’ve tried absolutely everything to put it together on time and make sure it’s good enough for you, but we’ve been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and COVID,” she said at the time.
“Half of my crew and team are [ill] with COVID and still are, and it was impossible to finish the show. I’m devastated – sorry it’s so last minute, we’ve been up for over 30 hours to find out and we’re out of time. I’m so upset and I’m really ashamed and I’m sorry to everyone who traveled to get [to the show]. I’m really, really sorry.”
She added: “We’re going to reschedule all the dates, we’re working on it now. And I’m going to finish my show and bring it where it’s supposed to be. We’ve been through so much and it’s just not done yet. I’m sorry very.”
Fans who have previously purchased tickets should look out for an email invitation from Ticketmaster with more information on Wednesday, August 3.
