Announced alongside the completion of their current residency, the group will return to The Venetian Resort in Vegas next year, performing five shows across Apr. 11, 12, 16, 18, and 19.

The B-52s initially announced shows at The Venetian back in 2022 when they revealed their ongoing farewell tour. That run of dates included three shows at the venue in October 2022, though additional shows were announced for May, and August and September 2023. Currently, the group will wrap up their latest residency on Wednesday (Nov. 13), having played another handful of shows in April.

Formed in Athena, Georgia in 1976, The B-52s would release a total of seven albums between 1979 and 2008, including 1989’s Cosmic Thing which gave them their highest-charting release globally, peaking at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. The record also spawned their most successful singles, “Love Shack” and “Roam”, which both reached No. 3 on the Hot 100 that year.

Known for their pioneering status in the new wave genre and unique aesthetic, the group’s lineup has revolved around the quartet of Fred Schneider, Katie Pierson, Keith Strickland, and Cindy Wilson since its inception, though founding guitarist Ricky Wilson died from an AIDS-related illness in 1985. Strickland, meanwhile, has not been part of the touring ensemble since 2013.

“No one likes to throw a party more than we do, but after almost a half-century on the road, it’s time for one last blowout with our friends and family … our fans,” said Schneider in a statement alongside the announcement of their farewell tour.

“Who knew what started as a way to have some fun and play music for our friends’ at house parties in Athens in 1977 would evolve into over 45 years of making music and touring the world,” added Pierson. “It’s been cosmic.”
