Adele — Las Vegas Residency ($2,000+ Average)

Adele's "Weekends with Adele" residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace ran for two years and charged an average of $2,000+ per ticket (VIP packages hit $30,000). She sang 24 songs over 2 hours in a 4,100-seat intimate venue — meaning she was performing to fewer people per show than most artists do in a club. The production was minimal: a piano, a microphone, and a voice that could melt steel. No pyrotechnics. No dancers. Just Adele being Adele. For $2,000, you either got the most intimate concert experience of your life, or the world's most expensive crying session. Most people said it was both.
