Dead & Company will hit 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 is expanding with two back-to-back weekends, bringing the total to 30.
The new shows are locked in for August 1-3 and August 7-10, an extension of what is said to be an immersive, must-see experience that celebrates the legacy of the Rock Hall inductees Grateful Dead by combining their songbook with the technical spectacles of the Sphere.
Of course, the band known for their psychedelic musical wanderings will be playing a unique setlist during each weekend's concerts at the state-of-the-art 20,000-capacity venue which has rocked crowds during U2's opening act with eye-popping LED screen graphics featuring highest resolution in the world. U2's U2: UV Achtung Baby Live at Sphere began in September and is expected to end on March 2.
Dead & Company's previously announced 24-day residency began on May 16 and was expected to run through July 13.
The band — 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 a member of the band as well, but left in 2023, before the band embarked on what it called its “final tour” last summer.
