“Dolly: Live in Las Vegas” will feature concerts on Dec. 4, 6, 7, 10, 12, and 13, 2025, concurrent with the country-centric National Finals Rodeo.

Parton, 79, will sing seven decades of her classic hits and fan favorites including “9 to 5,” “Jolene” and “I Will Always Love You.” (Yes, it was hers first.)

To say I’m excited would be an understatement,” Parton said in a press release. “I haven’t worked Vegas in years and I’ve always loved singing there.”

Parton stopped touring almost 10 years ago, performing only sporadically since — and not since her husband of 57 years, businessman Carl Thomas Dean, died in March.

Here You Come Again

Her last Las Vegas residency was 32 years ago at the Mirage, where she performed 50 shows from 1990 to 1993. Her first was at the Riviera, spanning 22 weeks from 1981 to 1983.

Her first Las Vegas concerts ever were also at Caesars Palace, back in 1973, and she has headlined the Aladdin and Bally’s as well.

Tickets go on sale for the new dates at 10 am. Wednesday, June 25 via Ticketmaster.
