The Eagles are flying south for the winter and have made plans to stick around for a few extra months.
Don Henley, Joe Walsh and co. just announced that their ongoing residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere will now stretch into April 2025.
Their four newly-added ‘Eagles — Live In Concert at Sphere’ shows are set to go down Friday, April 4, Saturday, April 5, Friday, April 11 and Saturday, April 12.
This quartet of gigs will be the 29th, 30th, 31st and 32nd at the legendary venue for the Rock Hall of Famers, which means they’ve booked the second most concerts of any act in Sphere’s short history trailing only U2’s 40.
When the residency was originally announced back in June, The Eagles was only supposed to be eight September and October shows. Since then, the popular residency has been extended six times.
These semi-regular extensions are for good reason, too; critics have been raving about the ambitious live show the “Hotel California” group has been putting on at Sphere these past two months.
“What they’ve crafted not only amplifies their legacy but also offers devotees a genuinely special experience as their touring career trots toward its conclusion,” USA Today reported, in a review of the residency’s opening night.
Fans can purchase tickets for all upcoming Eagles Las Vegas shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for the recently-announced April dates is Friday, Dec. 6.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

The Eagles band members
When you’ve been living “life in the fast lane” since 1971 (!), there’s bound to be a bit of shakeup.
Still, 77-year-old, founding member Don Henley (drums, vocals, also known for the ’80s smash “Boys of Summer), continues to head the group.
At Sphere, he’s be joined by 77-year-old Joe Walsh (who lent his talents to the James Gang), 77-year-old Timothy B. Schmit (bassist and vocalist who played with Poco), 22-time Grammy winner Vince Gill and the late Glenn Frey’s 31-year-old son Deacon.
Over the course of their 53+ years together, the band has netted six Grammy Awards, performed more than 1,000 concerts and sold over 150 million albums.
