Jerry Seinfeld adds to his record run on Strip

Jerry Seinfeld has drawn to 23 at Caesars Palace. A bust at the blackjack table, but a winner on the Colosseum stage.

Seinfeld opened at the theater on May 2, 2003. His 23-year run is the longest of any headliner, including even Celine Dion, Rod Stewart and Frank Sinatra at the hotel. The 71-year-old comedy icon is adding dates June 26-27 (tickets on sale 10 a.m. Pacific time Friday at Ticketmaster/Seinfled/Vegas.com). These are in addtion to Seinfeld’s previously booked April 17-18 shows.

Seinfeld’s shows are promoted by Live Nation Las Vegas, which books all shows at the Colosseum.

The comic has performed consistently over the years, but has not worked a voluminous schedule. He reached 100 shows in September 2024 (Dion performed a record 1,141 shows at the venue).

Seinfeld’s good friend and opening act on opening night, George Wallace, honored the 100th show from the stage.

“I’m choked up. Everyone should have a friend like Jerry Seinfeld. I’m blessed. I’m lucky to know this man,” Wallace said while lugging a giant “100” plaque. “Jerry, I love you and there’s nothing you can do about it.”
