Kylie Minogue has doubled the dates of her show Voltaire at The Venetian.
Minogue has added 10 shows to her original 10 over five weekends from December 15-16. Dates are extended through May. The expansion in this space was already reported last week. The dates were formalized on Monday.
The Voltaire show will premiere on November 3 and 4, and will continue in December, January, March, April and May 3 and 4 of next year.
Ticketmaster is now handling the sale, starting at 7 am Thursday, with information on your Ticketmaster.com, search for Minogue’s name. As before, general admission tickets start at $200. The ones with two tables cost a thousand dollars, the ones with four two thousand dollars and so on. The maximum number of tables is eight.
Travel packages start again at $2,500 for two, and fans will receive a three-day, two-night stay in a suite at The Venetian, a behind-the-scenes tour of the venue, $200 dining credit, arrival transportation and departure from the airport, free access to the Tao nightclub and a table at the show with caviar service.
The initial sale crashed the VoltaireLV.com website. The previous site, under the operator UrVenue, was repeatedly blocked due to demand for Minogue tickets. Ticketmaster will handle Voltaire ticket sales going forward.
There is no option to resell or transfer tickets for Voltaire. Show tickets are subject to a food and drink requirement. The no transfer policy is intended to prevent reselling a ticket to someone who does not meet the food and drink minimum the night of the performance. The payment of the entrance is made online in advance. But the food and beverage charge is paid the night of the show.
The new premises have capacity for a thousand people. As the works are finished, the venue will also release the general admission and table locations. The tickets previously offered for the first 10 weekends do not cover 100 percent of the venue’s capacity once the works are finished.
Minogue has not performed in the United States since 2011, when she performed at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Her latest single, “Padam Padam”, has topped the Billboard dance charts.
No New Year’s Eve headliner has been announced at the club. Voltaire occupies the former Opaline Theater, where Blue Man Group and “Rock of Ages” have performed.
Minogue will allow the use of cell phones in her show. Other bill holders, and we hope others, will make their own calls.
