Adele has officially wrapped up her Las Vegas residency, “Weekends with Adele,” with a heartfelt farewell during her final performance at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The residency, which began in November 2022, became a major hit, drawing a star-studded audience and cementing itself as one of the hottest tickets on The Strip. During her emotional last show, Adele tearfully expressed her gratitude to the fans, saying, “It’s been wonderful and I will miss it terribly, and I will miss you terribly.”
The singer went on to explain that her decision to take an extended break is tied to her desire to spend more time with her family, particularly her 11-year-old son, Angelo. She explained that she opted for a residency instead of a world tour to maintain a sense of normalcy for him. “I chose to do a residency so I could keep his life normal,” she said, adding that she was looking forward to enjoying weekends with him again. Adele also shared a loving message to her son, saying, “I love you to bits.”
In addition to her son, Adele thanked her partner, Rich Paul, for his unwavering support, saying that he always lifts her up and encourages her to pursue her dreams. She also recalled a particularly emotional moment when Celine Dion attended her concert, which brought both singers to tears. Adele mentioned that Dion’s presence at her show gave her a sense of closure, as her residency took place in the same venue where Dion launched her own groundbreaking Las Vegas residency over two decades ago. “It was just such a full circle moment for me,” Adele said, reflecting on how Dion’s residency had inspired her own journey.
Adele’s time in Las Vegas has been a transformative chapter in her career, but she made it clear that she plans to take a significant break now that the residency has ended. She had previously spoken about wanting to step back and enjoy her personal life after dedicating the last seven years to building a new life for herself. “I want to live it,” she said, referring to her decision to pause her career for a while.
As she bid farewell to her Las Vegas fans, Adele expressed both sadness and pride about the end of the residency, saying, “I am so sad that this residency is over but I am so glad that it happened. I am bursting, bursting, bursting with pride.” With her emotional farewell and plans for a break, Adele leaves Las Vegas on a high note, having created unforgettable memories for herself and her fans.
