One of your two favorite living Beatles is returning to the stage.
From May 22 through June 1, 2024, Ringo Starr and his All Starr Band — which includes Colin Hay from Men At Work, Edgar Winter from The Edgar Winter Group and Toto singer Steve Lukather among others — will perform six concerts at Las Vegas’ Venetian Theatre at the Venetian.
That’s not all, though.
“I’m taking the All Starrs back on the road for 12 shows this spring,” the 83-year-old Rock and Roll Hall of Famer shared on Instagram. We just announced six shows at the Venetian in Las Vegas and two in Mexico City, more to be announced soon. See you in 2024!”
While we wait for the four additional gigs on Starr’s calendar, you can grab tickets for all six Vegas concerts — where he may even work in the new Beatles song “Now and Then” — as soon as today.
Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, Dec. 1, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Ringo Starr new music
At 82, Ringo is still doing the dang thing and putting in work.
In October 2022, the former Fab Four drummer dropped the four-song “EP3” with his All-Starr Band.
Composed of feel-good anthems and sing-a-longs, somehow the lad from Liverpool is still bringing the goods.
Ultimate Classic Rock called the short offering “genuine and infectious.”
You can listen to the four tracks here.
This year, he released three singles including a new version of “Let It Be” with Dolly Parton and Paul McCartney.
