Luke Bryan Finishes Two-Year Vegas Residency: ‘Somehow I Have Survived Las Vegas’

Luke Bryan is hanging up his Sin City boots, for now.

On Saturday, Bryan, 47, ended his Las Vegas residency run at The Theatre at Resorts World, which ultimately saw him playing 48 shows in two years, and his final performance certainly delivered for his many fans.

Throughout the two-hour show, Bryan tore into his massive catalog of hits and took fans on a musical ride that chronicled his career beginnings in 2007, his modern-day hits, such as "But I Got A Beer In My Hand," and everything in between.   

“Somehow, somehow I have survived Las Vegas,” he told the crowd on the final night, before sharing

“I have not died yet, but if you add up all the mornings that I wanted to die it equals three total deaths. Tomorrow morning, Shady Grove Rehab for me. I’m gonna wear pajamas for 45 days," he joked.

Back in 2021, Bryan shared his love of casinos with PEOPLE ahead of kicking off his Vegas residency.

"I love to play blackjack and craps, but I'm also smart enough to not give all of my profits back to the casino," he explained with a laugh at the time, adding, "When I'm gambling, it's a little bit of an escape for me. I just enjoy sitting and watching the cards fall, and having a couple of drinks with friends and laughing and telling stories."

And during his Saturday show, he even noted that he was at the craps table until 5:15 a.m. that morning. “There are people in here who can document that,” he joked.

Despite the late finish, Bryan went well over his typical 90-minute show, playing for more than two hours. During that span, he covered George Strait, Ronnie Milsap, Conway Twitty, Rascal Flatts, Madonna, Lionel Richie, Elton John and Brooks and Dunn. 

“When you react to other people’s music more than mine it hurts my feelings,” he joked to the audience at one point.

While the fans were happy to sing along to the country and pop music legends, they were there for Bryan. And he delivered, with hits including “Huntin’, Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every Day,” “Buy Dirt,” “One Margarita,” “Knockin’ Boots,” and “Play It Again” were all apart of his Vegas finale. 

“I can do this all night,” he said to the delight of the crowd during one moment.

The evening concluded with the show's highlight — a moving catwalk that elevated Bryan and his band 45 feet in the air, bringing them face-to-face with the audience in the mezzanine and balcony areas at the rear of the venue. Fans were treated to some signature Bryan butt-shaking as he performed "Country Girl (Shake It for Me)" before capping the show with "I Don't Want This Night to End.”

The night, however, had to end. But not without a surprise. After Bryan returned to the stage from the catwalk, a group of people came on stage to say goodbye.

The singer then immediately laughed and began bowing down. 

"The are my dealers, these are my craps dealers,” he said before hugging each one and taking a photo with them. “Cheers to two years.”

But before leaving the stage, the country legend gave fans a tantalising hint about his future in Vegas, teasing that his days in the Nevada city might not be over.

“See you guys next time," he told the crowd.
