Where to buy tickets, best prices



Round three of Dead and Company’s long farewell is officially underway.

After their 2023 ‘Final Tour,’ Bob Weir and John Mayer shocked Deadheads and classic rock aficionados ’round the world when they announced their Las Vegas Sphere ‘Dead Forever’ residency.

Once the Rock Hall of Famers wrapped their first run at the groundbreaking, immersive venue, they announced a second set of 2025 shows, the first of which took place on Thursday, March 20.

“[They mixed] the greatest hits from last year’s setlists and visuals with a healthy dose of fresh material,” Billboard reported from the inaugural gig.

According to the publication “last year’s May 16 opening night included far more static shots of the band on giant video screens; this time around, every moment on the 240-foot-tall curved display served an aesthetic purpose beyond what any other concert venue can even attempt to provide.”

As for the music, the always-unpredictable jam band delivered 18 songs, based on our findings at Set List FM. Notable tracks that made the cut include fan favorites like “Scarlet Begonias,” “Fire on the Mountain” and “Touch of Grey” as well as surprising covers like Bob Dylan‘s “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” and The Spencer Davis Group‘s “Gimme Some Lovin’.”

“I have a feeling that it’s music that’s going to bring this country together,” Weir, 77, told Rolling Stone. “Nothing else is going to work.”

If you’d like to catch this one-of-a-kind live show featuring Weir, Mayer, Mickey Hart, bassist Oteil Burbridge, keyboardist Jeff Chimenti and drummer Jay Lane, 17 Sphere shows remain at the time of publication.

The lowest price we could find on tickets for any one show was $129 before fees on Vivid Seats.

All other concerts have seats starting anywhere from $132 to $224 before fees.

Weir, Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh and Jerry Garcia essentially created the template for freewheeling, improvisatory rock back in the ’60s.

Over the years, many acts have followed their lead and created their own version of the “no two set lists are the same” spectacle.

Here are just five of our anything goes favorites you won’t want to miss live this year.
