Dead & Company Extends Residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere

Dead & Company will roll into the Sphere for an additional six shows this August, new dates added due to “increased demand.”

Announced today (May 28), the “Dead Forever – Live at Sphere” residency in Las Vegas expands with two weekends of back-to-back dates, bringing the total number to 30.

The new shows are locked in for Aug. 1-3 and Aug. 7-10, an extension to what’s said to be a “must-see” immersive experience that celebrates the legacy of the Rock Hall-inducted Grateful Dead, combining their songbook with the Sphere’s technical spectacles.

Of course, the band known for their psychedelic musical wanderings will play a unique setlist during each weekend’s shows at the 20,000-capacity state-of-the-art venue that has wowed crowds during the inaugural run by U2 with eye-popping visuals on the world’s highest resolution warp-around LED screen; U2’s U2: UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere shows began in September and are slated to wind down on March 2.

Dead & Company’s previously announced, 24-date residency began May 16 and was expected to run through July 13.

The group — which includes Grateful Dead founding member guitarist/singer Bob Weir and longtime drummer/percussionist Mickey Hart, as well as John Mayer, Jeff Chimenti and Oteil Burbridge — formed in 2015. Co-founder drummer Bill Kreutzmann was originally part of the band as well, but he exited in 2023, before the band kicked off what it called its “final tour” last summer.

To ensure that tickets get directly into the hands of Deadheads, advance presale registration is available now here, powered by Seated.

Travel and VIP packages are available now, the artist presale begins Thursday (May 30) and the general on-sale begins Friday (May 31) at 1pm ET. Ticket prices start at $145.
