Father time has no hold over Mr. Las Vegas! Wayne Newton aged smoothly as wine into his eighties, extending his residency at the illustrious Flamingo Hotel up to halfway through 2024. But wait!

"No other Vegas shows capture the same excitement and energy that Newton brings to his audience. Not only is he a natural and down-to-earth entertainer, but he is a kind and enthusiastic one as well. He knows how to get the crowd shouting and clapping along as he entertains his heart out for their pleasure."
Mr. Wayne Newton is the 20th century's most dashing crooner! Impeccably charismatic, the singer can rile up crowds with even the simplest gestures—a pure effortless showman. The Up Close and Personal concert, however, isn't just about the glitz and the glamor. In about two hours, audiences will intimately experience the historic career of Las Vegas' highest-grossing act through exclusive anecdotes, on-stage Q&A, nostalgic film clips, and, of course, his iconic collection of era-defining music.
Our headliner first graced the limelight as a lad barely breaking 15 years of age in 1959. Wayne Newton initially performed in a duo with Jerry, his older brother, but he eventually flew solo in 1963 with his smash German hit "Danke Schoen." Since then, the jazz icon released one show-stopping tune after another, including "Summer Wind," "Red Roses for a Blue Lady," and the gold-certified Billboard breaker, "Daddy Don't You Walk so Fast."
In a phone interview, Newton shared how he works the crowd during concerts.
"The set list is an improvisation. To judge the audience, I start the show with three different types of songs – a ballad, an up-tempo song, and a standard. The reaction of the crowd to those three songs shows me what it is they want to hear."
