Six years ago, Pretty Lights went dark. Now, after her surreal comeback flipped the switch back on, she's returning to Las Vegas for a pair of epic stadium shows.
The influential electronic music producer has stepped away from the industry and remained out of the public eye since the summer of 2018, when he performed to a sold-out crowd at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre. After five years of pent-up creativity, he emerged with a momentous tour, “Soundship Spacesystem,” and officially returned to the stage in August 2023.
Pretty Lights, real name Derek Vincent Smith, has announced a rare double-header in Las Vegas as part of his Soundship Spacesystem 2024 Check Your Vector Tour. The shows are scheduled for Halloween weekend, October 25-26.

The double-bill in the nation's entertainment capital is more than just another stop on the tour. For longtime fans, these shows offer a chance to reconnect with Smith's signature sound. And for new audiences, it's a chance to experience firsthand an artist who helped shape the art of live electronic music performance.
At the illustrious MGM Grand Garden Arena, Pretty Lights will occupy the same stage that in years past has hosted the Rolling Stones, Madonna, Elton John, Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and countless other music icons. The venue has also been the site of several of boxing’s most legendary fights, including the infamous 1997 championship fight in which Mike Tyson bit off a chunk of Evander Holyfield’s ear.
On Tuesday, July 30 at 10 a.m. PT, an artist ticket pre-sale will launch. In an effort to mitigate bots and scalpers, it will only be accessible via a password sent by Seated, according to AEG. Potential ticket holders can sign up for the pre-sale at Pretty Lights Official Website to recover the password, which will be sent via SMS and email between 20 and 60 minutes before.
