Events & Concerts This Weekend
October 16-18Las Vegas events this weekend (October 16-18): 219 concerts, shows, tours and attractions have dates. Here are the 36 worth your time, day by day, starting with the 10 that don't play every week.
Saturday is the big night: Metallica at Sphere, the Golden Knights at home at T-Mobile Arena and the Aces at Michelob ULTRA Arena, all on the 17th. Keith Urban plays BleauLive Theater on Friday and Saturday, New Kids on the Block are at Dolby Live the same two nights, and Earth, Wind and Fire play all weekend at the Venetian Theatre. The Raiders close it out at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday. Jay and Silent Bob, Warrant and Switchfoot with Anberlin each have a single date, with nothing after it on the calendar.
Las Vegas runs on two clocks: the residencies that play every week, and the concerts, comedy nights and short runs that are in town for a weekend and gone. On a three-night trip, the second kind is what shapes the plans. The list updates throughout the day, and showtimes are on each listing's page.
