Background
During the start of the promotional cycle for her upcoming sixteenth studio album Tension (2023), Minogue was asked by several media outlets about touring, specifically touring in North America, and a Vegas Residency. Andy Cohen posed the question during her appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, to which she responded "Very possibly". Rumours were fuelled when she posted a video to her accounts of the interaction, overlayed with social media posts from fans about a potential residency, along with various conversations mentioning the song "Vegas High" from the forthcoming album.[2]
More Than Just a Residency was announced via Minogue's socials on 28 July 2023, posting a thirty-second video featuring videos of performances, as well as dates for the residency, backed by "Vegas High".[3]
In a press release, Minogue stated that the show had been in development for three years, further stating that she felt she'd found the right time "somewhere in the middle" of her career where she'd "earned the right" to perform there.[2]
I want it to be the kind of essence of what a Kylie show has become, enough glamour and abandon. I’ve got some versions of songs that have not been heard, like reinterpretations of songs, which is exciting. Live bed dances, amazing costumes. That’s the base and then we’ll see what surprises we can come up with
— Minogue on the premise of the show.[4]
Commercial performance
Minogue's residency has been met with an overwhelming demand for tickets, with the first run of ten shows selling out within hours. Initially, ticketing challenges surfaced during the first release of tickets, however, this surge in interest prompted the theater's representatives to accommodate fans by announcing ten additional dates.[5] The second release of shows sold out within 30 minutes of going on sale.[6]
