Eagles Extend Las Vegas Sphere Residency Into 2027

The Eagles are keeping their Las Vegas residency rolling well past previous expectations.
They are extending their Sphere residency into 2027, despite earlier comments suggesting 2026 could mark the band’s final year, extending their landmark run at the Sphere into a third calendar year.

Expanding the Longest-Running Sphere Residency

The newly added shows are scheduled for January 15, 16, 22, and 23, 2027. These dates follow what was previously expected to be the conclusion of their run in December 2026. According to a press release, the new dates were added due to overwhelming demand.

Having first taken the stage at the venue in September 2024, this latest extension brings the Eagles’ total number of concerts at the high-tech venue to 72. It stands as the Sphere’s longest-running residency to date.

Ticket Sales and Presale Details

Fans looking to secure tickets can register for an advance artist presale on the band’s official website. A presale kicks off on August 12 at 7 a.m. EDT, with additional presales following on August 13 at 10 a.m. EDT. The general on-sale opens on August 14 at 10 a.m. EDT via Ticketmaster.

Don Henley on Retirement and the Road Ahead

The 2027 announcement comes as a pivot following comments made earlier in the year by drummer and co-founder Don Henley. In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Henley noted that 2026 would likely mark the final year for the band.

“I think this will probably be it,” Henley told CBS Sunday Morning earlier this year. “I feel like we’re getting toward the end, and that will be fine, too.” He added that he is okay with the end because he would like to spend more time with his family and grow vegetables, noting that he has traveled all over the world but hasn’t seen much of it beyond airports, hotel rooms, and venues.

Despite Henley’s earlier comments, the band has extended the residency following overwhelming demand.

Frank Zappa’s estate is celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Mothers of Invention’s groundbreaking 1966 debut album, Freak Out!, with a massive deluxe reissue. Arriving on Sept. 25 via Zappa Records and UMe, the expanded collection unearths a long-lost mono mix, unreleased live performances, demos, and rehearsal tapes straight from the vault.

Released originally on June 27, 1966, via Verve Records, Freak Out! stands as one of rock’s very first double albums and an early blueprint for the concept album. Its influence reached far and wide, inspiring Paul McCartney when the Beatles were crafting their own concept album Sgt. Pepper’s. Zappa and the Mothers rejected standard pop formats in favor of a sprawling mix of doo-wop, R&B, orchestral arrangements, free jazz, and caustic social satire.

What’s Inside the 60th Anniversary Box Set

Produced by Zappa vaultmeister Joe Travers, the Super Deluxe 5CD/1Blu-ray edition packs a trove of bonus material, including numerous rare live and studio recordings. The core 15-track album features 24-bit/192kHz digital transfers and 2026 mastering by John Polito. Listeners get three distinct ways to experience the original double-LP: a newly remastered stereo mix, a rediscovered 1966 pre-master mix, and the elusive mono mix that remained unavailable for decades.

Discs four and five of the super deluxe set dive into the archives with live material captured at San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium in June and February of 1966. It also features original Mothers rehearsals, demos, vocal reference mixes, and a late-night jam session outtake collage. The accompanying Blu-ray includes the stereo mix and a bonus track titled “Groupie Bang Bang.”

Formats and Physical Packaging

For vinyl enthusiasts, the release will also be available as an 180-gram 5-LP box set containing the pre-master mix, the mono master, and an extra LP of unreleased highlights, demos, and live cuts. A 2-LP multi-colored vinyl version of the original album is also on the way.

Physical super deluxe editions include a litho print and a 26-page booklet packed with unseen photos from Ray Leong and David Anderle, alongside historical essays and liner notes penned by Leong, music journalist Jason Pettigrew, and Joe Travers.

Check out the track listing for the six-disc Super Deluxe Edition of the set below.
