The Eagles

The Eagles are set to keep their long-running residency at the Sphere Las Vegas going through late March 2026, turning the high-tech venue into the final stop for a sprawling run that began in 2024. The schedule now stretches to Saturday, March 28, 2026, with multiple 2026 weekends on sale and billed as the residency’s closing stretch.

For fans, the headline is timing and scarcity: the dates are framed as the last chapter of this Sphere series, with demand driven by the band’s catalog and the venue’s immersive production style.

The Eagles at Sphere Las Vegas: final stretch

The updated calendar places The Eagles at the Sphere Las Vegas across several weekends in early 2026, with shows clustered around Fridays and Saturdays. The run is widely described as the venue’s longest-running artist residency so far, reflecting both repeat attendance and the show’s ability to exploit the Sphere’s wraparound visuals and specialized audio.

Beyond the spectacle, the draw is familiar: “Hotel California,” “Life in the Fast Lane,” and other staples delivered in a format that leans heavily on synchronized visuals and room-filling sound rather than a traditional stage-only concert presentation.

2026 dates and start times in ET

Most listings for the 2026 concerts show an 8:30 p.m. local start in Las Vegas, which converts to 11:30 p.m. ET. Event doors and pre-show timing can vary by date and venue operations, but the start time is a useful planning anchor for East Coast travelers and viewers coordinating late-night meetups.

Here’s a compact view of the 2026 weekend schedule that has been announced and marketed as the concluding run:

Weekend dates (2026) Typical start time (ET) Notes
Jan 23–24 11:30 p.m. Part of the early-2026 extension
Jan 30–31 11:30 p.m. End-of-January weekend
Feb 20–21 11:30 p.m. February run continues
Feb 27–28 11:30 p.m. Late-February weekend
Mar 20–21 11:30 p.m. Labeled among final added shows
Mar 27–28 11:30 p.m. Closing weekend, finale on Mar 28

Why the Sphere show is different

Sphere Las Vegas is built to make concerts feel like a hybrid of live performance and cinematic installation. The venue’s signature is its massive interior display, paired with directional audio and seat-based effects that can add vibration and movement-like sensations during certain moments. That tech-forward approach has reshaped how legacy artists present “greatest hits” sets: the music stays familiar, but the visuals and staging are engineered to feel like a once-only event.

That framing matters for The Eagles, whose audience spans generations and includes fans who have seen the band many times. The Sphere model gives repeat attendees a reason to come back: the show is not just a concert, but a tightly choreographed production designed around the room.

Ticket demand, travel packages, and the Vegas effect

The residency has leaned into destination planning. Alongside standard tickets, official travel and VIP offerings have been marketed around hotel stays, premium seating, and add-on experiences that bundle logistics with the show night.

For Las Vegas, the strategy is familiar but effective: major residencies stabilize tourism demand across multiple weekends rather than concentrating it into a single blockbuster date. For fans, it can mean a trade-off—more opportunities to attend, but intense demand for the best sections and weekend nights.

What comes next after March 28

With March 28, 2026 positioned as the residency’s closing night, the forward-looking question is whether this production transfers elsewhere or stays exclusive to the Sphere format. The immersive show design is tightly tied to the venue’s technical capabilities, making a direct “touring” version difficult without major re-engineering.

In the near term, the more practical next steps for fans are simple: watch for any last-minute showtime updates, plan arrivals with late ET start times in mind, and treat the final March weekend as the endpoint unless new dates are formally added.
