Cyndi Lauper Las Vegas 2027: Colosseum Dates and Setlist

Cyndi Lauper's first job as a lead singer, rather than a backup singer, was a Bad Company song in a cover band. More than four decades, a Best New Artist Grammy and a Tony Award later, she closed a 68-date farewell tour at the Hollywood Bowl in 2025, then opened her first Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum the following spring. Farewell turned out to mean farewell to touring. In 2027 she is back at Caesars Palace for ten more nights, five in February and five in September.

Cyndi Lauper: Live in Las Vegas at The Colosseum

Cyndi Lauper: Live in Las Vegas is a career-spanning hits show, designed with Brian Burke Creative for the 4,300-seat Colosseum. She sold the first run as a last chance for anyone who missed the farewell tour, and kept that tour's spirit while reshaping it for a seated theater.

What the setlist looks like

Opening night of the first run, April 24, 2026, went 16 songs. She started with She Bop, The Goonies 'R' Good Enough and When You Were Mine, the Prince song she covered on her first album, then I Drove All Night. The middle of the set went deeper than most hits shows dare: Who Let in the Rain, Iko Iko, Into the Nightlife, Sally's Pigeons, I'm Gonna Be Strong, Sisters of Avalon and Change of Heart. Time After Time and Money Changes Everything closed the main set, and the encore ran Shine, True Colors and Girls Just Want to Have Fun.

I'm Gonna Be Strong is the one to wait for. It is a Gene Pitney ballad she first recorded in 1980 with Blue Angel, the band she fronted before the solo records, and it is the song in the set that shows how far that voice can still climb.

Why she still fills The Colosseum

She's So Unusual, her 1983 debut, made her the first woman to put four singles from a debut album into the top five of the Billboard Hot 100, and Time After Time went to number one. Thirty years later she wrote the songs for Kinky Boots on Broadway and in 2013 became the first woman to win the Tony for best score on her own. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted her in November 2025, and RAYE sang Time After Time with her that night.

February 19 and 20 on the Strip

Her first two February nights land on one of the busiest weekends of the winter. Mary J. Blige plays the last two shows of her residency at Dolby Live in Park MGM, and our guide to her final nights covers that run. Max Amini has Encore Theater for stand-up the same two nights, covered in our Max Amini guide. An 80s pop night, a 90s R&B night and a comedy night, all inside one weekend.

All the big ones: Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Time After Time, True Colors and She Bop are certainties. Expect deep cuts too, from the Blue Angel years and her later albums, since the residency set leans further into her catalog than a festival show would.

Inside Caesars Palace at the center of the Strip, across from the Bellagio and next to the Forum Shops. It seats 4,300, and it was built so that no seat sits more than about 120 feet from the stage.
