The rumours were true: Kylie Minogue has just announced a residency slot at Las Vegas’ The Venetian Resort.
The shows are slated to begin in early November this year, with tickets coming out in the next couple of weeks.
The Padam Padam singer no doubt deserves this prestigious slot, especially considering she is the only female artist to grab a number one album in five consecutive decades in the UK.
She’s also sold an incredible 80 million records worldwide, as well as 5 billion streams.
Kylie announced her residency slot at an event over the weekend in Los Angeles. She said: “Today is the day where it all becomes, beautifully real. So to finally be able to say, yes, I am doing a show in Vegas and to be at Voltaire at the Venetian Resort, it’s just, it’s such a good match. And, yeah, I couldn’t be more excited.”
The secretive stage production is said to be a “modern-day art deco fantasy”, coming from the mind of Emmy and Tony Award-winning production designer Derek McClane. He previously worked on Moulin Rouge! the Oscars and the Met Gala.

Kylie recently spoke to Hello Magazine where she explained why now is the perfect time for her to take on a residency slot.
She said: “I think if I had done this earlier in my career it might have been too early. If I’d done it too much later I’d regret it being too much later.
“Right now, in my life, in my career, it feels like the perfect point, the perfect moment where, I’ve got the catalogue, I’ve got the history, but I’ve also got the drive and the ambition to go so much further.”
