The Eagles' residency at Sphere in Las Vegas takes in another 18 shows before the run finishes in January
Country rock legends the Eagles have completed the first two nights of their ongoing residency at Sphere in Las Vegas.
The band played 20-song sets on Friday and Saturday, finishing each performance with a version of Heartache Tonight dedicated to its co-author, J.D. Souther, who died earlier this month. The rest of the set was littered with classics, from the opening Hotel California to Desperado via a list of songs the band have played live more than a thousand times. Full setlist below.
The band have also released a set of photos shot across the first two nights, which show the scale of the video graphics they were able to employ using Sphere's 580,000 sq ft of LED displays - see gallery below.
Eagles are the fourth band to book shows at Sphere, following U2, who played 40 shows in 2023 – including the opening night on September 29 – plus Phish (four shows last April) and Dead & Company, whose residency kicked off in May and climaxed last month.
