Take That Las Vegas residency given the green light by venue owner

Take That are reportedly one step closer to getting a Las Vegas residency, with a venue owner giving the prospect the green light.

The iconic ‘90s boyband – now comprised of Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen – first teased the idea of a run of residency shows in Nevada last month, telling fans that the stint would be the last thing on their bucket list.

Now, it seems that the idea is now close to becoming a reality, as a venue owner in Sin City has come forward and claimed that he would love to host the trio in the future.

The comments came from Michael Gruber, who is the founder of the Voltaire venue at The Venetian. Speaking as part of a new interview with The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column (via Music News), he said: “ “I love Take That. I absolutely want them to perform at Voltaire. It is perfect for them.”

He continued, saying that there were previous plans discussed that led them to think they “would have a show” locked-in, but ultimately “it didn’t work out in the end.”

Back in September, Take That shared their first new single in five years, ‘Windows’, and announced details of their ninth album along with a huge UK and Ireland tour.

“New music, it is exciting,” Barlow said. “We’ve been together for 33 years now so it’s like, ‘What’s next? How do we sound in 2023?’ That’s the exciting bit.”

The trio are due to hit the road next spring for a run of stadium and arena shows in support of their ninth studio album ‘This Life’. They will be joined by “very special guest” support act Olly Murs.
