Mars’ Las Vegas ties and tour timing
Mars opens his Romantic tour at Allegiant Stadium the same evening. The parade precedes that stadium performance by only a few hours.
His relationship with MGM Resorts dates back to 2013, when he played the MGM Grand. He returned to T‑Mobile Arena in 2017 and 2018.
Mars has drawn a reported 800,000 attendees to Dolby Live at Park MGM. He also staged several pop‑up shows at The Pinky Ring nightclub, which opened in February 2024.
Due to his extended tour schedule, he currently has no Dolby Live dates listed.
