Cher expands Vegas residency schedule

Just two months after celebrating her 100th Las Vegas show, Cher [ tickets ] has tacked more concert dates onto her glitzy residency at Caesars Palace.

The iconic singer, who returns to the stage April 10, has added seven pairs of consecutive shows, some of which fall on Saturday and Sunday, others on Tuesday and Wednesday. The current schedule, which is shown at right, currently finishes up with a July 4 performance.

Tickets for most shows are available now via Ticketmaster, though fans will have to wait until tomorrow (3/11) to purchase tickets for the June and July gigs.

Last November, Cher kicked off the latest leg of the residency, which features a new opening sequence for the 90-minute showcase, as well as theatrics that pay tribute to the 1940s and 1950s.

The Caesars Palace residency begin in May 2008, following a deal with promoter AEG to play approximately 200 shows at 4,300-seat venue over the course of three years. The over-the-top extravaganza features songs spanning Cher's extensive career and includes 18 dancers, along with aerialists, special effects, and dramatic scenery changes, along with the Mackie-designed costume wardrobe.
