Dolly Parton is going to Las Vegas. On Monday (June 23) the country icon announced a limited engagement concert residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, set for six nights in December.

Parton will perform on Dec. 4, 6, 7, 10, 12 and 13. She’ll be “weaving together seven decades of classic hits and fan favorites including ‘9 to 5,’ ‘Jolene,’ ‘I Will Always Love You’ and ‘Coat of Many Colors,'” says a press release from her representatives.

“To say I’m excited would be an understatement,” Parton herself said in a statement released Monday morning. “I haven’t worked Vegas in years and I’ve always loved singing there. I’m looking so forward to the shows in The Colosseum at Caesars and I hope you are as well. See you there!”

Tickets for Dolly: Live in Las Vegas are scheduled to go on sale via Ticketmaster on Wednesday, June 25, at 10 a.m. PT.

Ticket options will include a range of VIP packages, with extras like a personal photo opportunity with Parton, an onstage tour, access to the singer’s Rhinestone Lounge, a deluxe gift set and more.

All shows will begin at 8 p.m.

The concert dates, marking Parton’s first extended run in Las Vegas since a short engagement in the early ’90s — at the then-new, but now-closed, Mirage Hotel, where she performed alongside Kenny Rogers — fall during the week of the National Finals Rodeo in Vegas.

Parton’s most recent full-length album, Rockstar, was released in 2023, earning the No. 1 spot on the Top Country Albums chart and reaching No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200.

In March 2025, she released a heartfelt song in tribute to her late husband, Carl Dean (“If You Hadn’t Been There“).

Since 2024, Parton has featured on a number of projects for fellow artists, from Beyoncé (“Tyrant” and the interlude “Dolly P“) and Post Malone (“Have a Heart“) to Sabrina Carpenter (a remix of “Please Please Please“) and Mötley Crüe (a reimagined “Home Sweet Home“).

Kendrick Lamar fans go wild during Grand National performance in Argentina

image

Kendrick Lamar continues to be one of the most talked-about figures in hip-hop, often sparking intense debate among fans and critics alike. Still, for those attending his “Grand National” tour, the experience has been nothing short of unforgettable. The rapper performed in Argentina last night (Saturday, October 4) at the Estadio Monumental, and clips shared by NFR Podcast and Complex Music on Instagram captured a packed crowd having the time of their lives.

That said, Kendrick’s South American “Grand National” run hasn’t been completely smooth. This has nothing to do with the online chatter about ticket sales, pricing rumors, or claims from critics and Drake supporters, all of which remain unverified. The real issue stems from the canceled concert in Bogotá, Colombia, which left disappointed fans waiting for hours. While the exact reason hasn’t been fully confirmed, local reports suggest that the cancellation was due to structural problems at the Vive Claro Stadium, security complications on the day of the show, and intervention from city officials to ensure safety. Still, the footage from his Argentina performance shows that despite setbacks, fans were treated to a truly electric night.

Kendrick Lamar Grammys

Elsewhere, Kendrick Lamar is already looking ahead to 2026, having officially submitted his work for Grammy consideration. The Recording Academy is expected to announce nominations in early November, and fans are eager to see which of his entries will make the final cut. Among his submissions are the GNX album for Album of the Year, “luther” featuring SZA for Record and Song of the Year, and several collaborations from 2025 vying for Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance. If he takes home four awards this cycle, and Jay-Z doesn’t win any, Kendrick will become the most decorated hip-hop artist in Grammy history.

Meanwhile, some of Kendrick’s earlier projects are still reaching new milestones. His collaboration with Travis Scott, “goosebumps,” has officially become the highest-certified hip-hop track of all time. With achievements like these continuing to stack up, it’s easy to see why fans and critics hold K.Dot to such high expectations when it comes to touring, chart success, and influence. He has one more stop left in Chile before taking his show to Australia later this year.
