Santana Adds Eight Vegas Residency Shows

Guitar legend adds eight November dates to his House of Blues residency at Mandalay Bay

Published July 8, 2026

Santana is not done with Las Vegas this year. The guitarist just added eight new dates to his residency at House of Blues inside Mandalay Bay, running November 4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, and 15. The additions come on top of his already-scheduled September run and mark the second expansion of this residency in 2026, a sign the shows keep selling well enough to justify more nights on the calendar.

What the New Santana Dates Mean

The new November shows join Santana’s existing September dates (16, 17, 19, 20, 23, 24, 26, and 27) at House of Blues, bringing his 2026 Las Vegas total to 16 performances. Doors open at 7pm and the show starts at 8pm for every date. Presales are already underway: a Citi cardmember presale ran July 8 through 10, and an artist presale follows July 9 through 10. General public tickets go on sale Saturday, July 11 at 10am Pacific.

The residency, “An Intimate Evening with Santana: Greatest Hits Live,” is now in its 14th year running at the intimate House of Blues venue, making it one of the longest-standing residency formats on the Strip. Santana is currently on a co-headlining tour with The Doobie Brothers through late August, so the Vegas dates give fans a chance to catch him in a smaller room once that tour wraps.

What This Means for Your Vegas Trip

House of Blues tickets move through the venue and box office rather than Spotlight, so if you are chasing Santana specifically, plan to book directly once the general sale opens. But if you are building a Mandalay Bay night out around it, the hotel has its own resident production worth knowing about. Michael Jackson ONE tickets start at $115 for the Cirque du Soleil show in its own theater at the same resort, an easy pairing if you want two very different kinds of live music on the same trip.

If your dates do not line up with either show, browse Las Vegas concerts this fall for other artists playing the Strip through the rest of 2026.

Plan Your Vegas Night Now

Santana’s new dates will likely move fast once the general sale opens Saturday. Whatever you end up seeing, check what’s playing tonight in Las Vegas before you land so you are not scrambling for a second show once you get here.
