Barry Manilow and the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino just hit a historic high note: the pop legend has inked a lifetime residency deal with the iconic venue. That’s right—Manilow, the man behind hits like “Mandy” and “Copacabana,” will grace the stage of the International Theater for as long as he wants.
This symbolic deal marks a first for Westgate owner David Siegel, who’s never offered a lifetime contract in the resort’s 41-year history. “Barry is a generational artist and a dear friend,” Siegel said. “It’s an honor to offer him this opportunity for life.”
Breaking Records and Hearts
In September 2023, Manilow shattered Elvis Presley’s record for performances at the International Theater, clocking in at 636 shows. Now, with 48 dates already booked through December 2025, he’s just getting started. At 81 years young, the pop icon shows no signs of slowing down.
Fans can catch Manilow’s famed Christmas production this holiday season, running Dec. 5-7 and Dec. 12-14. And if you can’t make it to Vegas, NBC will air the show on Dec. 19 at 10 p.m.
A Partnership for the Ages
Manilow has called Westgate home since 2018, and his partnership with Siegel feels less like a business arrangement and more like a family affair. “David Siegel and the Westgate team have been like family to me,” Manilow shared. “I’m deeply grateful to call Westgate home for the rest of my career.”
If you’re a Manilow fan—or just a fan of witnessing history—you’ve got a golden ticket to see this living legend perform his greatest hits live, as often as you’d like.
