Early this year, Adele canceled her planned Las Vegas residency, just one day before it was to begin. At the time, she attributed the cancelation to COVID-related production issues that were holding up the show’s completion, saying, “I’m so sorry, but my show ain’t ready.” Now she has announced a new run of dates, with eight more dates along with the previous 24 shows.

“Weekends With Adele” will start on November 18 and run every Friday and Saturday for five months, ending on March 25, 2023.

On social media, she wrote, “Words can’t explain how ecstatic I am to finally be able to announce these rescheduled shows. I truly was heartbroken to have to cancel them. But after what feels like an eternity of figuring out logistics for the show that I really want to deliver, and knowing it can happen, I’m more excited than ever! Now I know for some of you it was a horrible decision on my part, and I will always be sorry for that, but I promise you it was the right one. To be with you in such an intimate space every week has been what I’ve most been looking forward to and I’m going to give you the absolute best of me. Thank you for your patience, I love you.”
