DEF LEPPARD End 2026 Las Vegas Residency Night 12 (Show Report/Setlist)
Def Leppard played show #12 of their 2026 Las Vegas Residency last night with 19 songs performed.
The show took place at the 4,100 capacity The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
Night 12 of the Las Vegas Residency Live at Caesars Palace.
The Las Vegas Residency Night #12
The final show at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
Yes after 12 shows here the band's third residency came to a close.
The 35th residency show after their two previous visits in 2013 and 2019.
We already knew there would be no setlist changes but one last great night was in store for the Vegas audience.
The last of four Saturday night shows started promptly at 8:15pm.
The crowd Rejoiced along with anyone watching and following online as many cool fan videos were broadcast and posted throughout.
'Animal', 'Foolin'', 'White Lightning' etc... were all seen and heard and you could tell this night was as good as any of the others.
One month in the same city and the same venue.
And as Joe said at the end '12 shows, 12 amazing crowds'.
Judging by the noise he was referring to the constant singing throughout all the most well known songs.
And the noise made between songs which started early as he welcomed everyone to the 'final night' of this residency.
Asking them if they were ready to have fun and, of course, if they wanted to get rocked.
It would seem they did...and were.
Until Next Time
Joe gave an extended speech at the end thanking the crowd on this 'special' final night.
As you would expect and hope he also thanked the crew and the video screen people for their hard work.
Referring to the 'amazing visuals' on the screen throughout the show.
I think anyone who was there or watched from afar online can agree these are the best visual displays the band have had since they started using screens back in 2005.
Not to mention the entire physical lighting display which was also excellent.
Visuals made by a team from Montreal in Canada, home of the loudest crowds the band have played to.
Maybe they'll be back there next year in what will be the 50th anniversary celebration year and the 40th for a certain 'Hysteria' album.
But before this of course they now have just under one month off to reflect on this residency.
And the next three shows bring them somewhere (almost) new, at least for 'live' shows.
As Joe surprisingly did not say on this final night:
Until next time. And there will be a next time!.
