If there was anyone well-suited for a Las Vegas residency, it is definitely Mariah Carey. The iconic singer took her new show, “The Butterfly Returns,” to the stage at The Colosseum at Caesar’s Palace in July 2018, with performances on select dates through September.

“The Butterfly Returns” is Carey’s second concert residency in Vegas but her fourth residency in total. Her two-year “#1 to Infinity” show started in 2015 and ended in 2017, and included songs from all her albums except for Charmbracelet and Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel.
