Venetian Theatre Welcomes Styx Back For 2027

Styx’s “The Hits” residency returns to the Venetian Theatre for five shows in early 2027

Published September 14, 2026

Styx is heading back to the Venetian Theatre inside the Venetian Resort for a five-date residency titled “The Hits,” running January 29-30 and February 3, 5 and 6, 2027. It marks the band’s seventh consecutive year playing that room, and the run lands during guitarist Tommy Shaw’s 50th year with the band. Unlike last year’s album “Circling From Above,” this run focuses entirely on the catalog of songs fans already know. If classic rock isn’t the vibe you’re after that week, Spotlight has Las Vegas show tickets for everything else running the Strip in late January and early February.

Five Dates, One Catalog-Only Setlist

Styx has billed this specific run as “The Hits” rather than a tour stop for new material, which puts the focus squarely on the songs that built the band’s Vegas following over six previous years at the same venue. The five dates split into two blocks: a January 29-30 weekend, then a three-show stretch February 3, 5 and 6, a few days later. That split gives visitors two separate windows to catch the show without needing to be in town for a full week, and it comes the same year the band marks 50 years since Tommy Shaw joined as guitarist and co-lead vocalist. Browse Las Vegas music and tribute shows for other classic-act options running the same stretch, whether that’s a tribute act or a residency from a band still touring under its own name.

A Seventh Year At The Same Venetian Room

The Venetian Theatre has become Styx’s regular Vegas stop rather than a one-off booking, with six prior years of dates at the same room before this seventh run.

Booking Around Late January And Early February

Late January and early February sit in a quieter stretch of the Las Vegas calendar than the holidays on either side of it. The Venetian Resort sits toward the north end of the Strip. If you’re planning a trip around one of the five dates, check Las Vegas shows for what else is booked before you land.

Book A Show Around The Residency Dates

Styx’s five dates give visitors two separate windows to plan around in January and February 2027, the two blocks a few days apart. Book a show through Spotlight now if you’re building a trip around either one, whether that’s the January 29-30 dates or the February 3, 5 and 6 run.
