Mariah Carey is returning to Las Vegas.
After back-to-back holiday tours, the elusive chanteuse is returning to Sin City with ‘The Celebration Of Mimi’ to mark the 19th anniversary of her comeback album, The Emancipation Of Mimi.
All eight shows will take place from April 12 to April 27 at Dolby Live at Park MGM, which previously hosted various artist residencies, including Usher and Silk Sonic.

LiveNation has hinted that the event will feature “fan favorites from that album as well as other hits from [Carey’s] unparalleled illustrious career.” Her previous Las Vegas engagements lasted from 2015 to 2017, when she performed her ‘#1 to Infinity’ residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Carey returned the next year, in 2018, for “The Butterfly Returns” residency, which ended before the 2020 lockdown.
Other presale alternatives, sponsored by MGM Rewards, SiriusXM, LiveNation, and Ticketmaster, will go live on Thursday, February 8 at 10 a.m. PT.
Carey’s most recent tour, the Merry Christmas One And All! Tour, broke attendance records and sold more tickets per concert than any other tour she’s done since the Butterfly World Tour in 1998. According to Billboard Boxscore, the holiday-themed tour grossed $29.6 million and sold 214,000 tickets over 15 performances.
Carey has conducted private residencies or toured her two Christmas albums every year since 2014, with the exception of 2020 and 2021 due to COVID, despite the fact that “All I Want For Christmas Is You” generates more than enough profit on an annual basis.
This previous year, the big single returned to the Billboard Hot 100 in mid-November and remained at No. 2 until the first week of 2024. According to Billboard Boxscore, Carey’s live Christmas tour could extend from November 17 to December 17.
