The Marcus King Band Concert Tickets

The Marcus King Band make their debut at The Theater at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas on Thursday, December 3, 2026, doors 7:30 p.m., with Kelsey Waldon opening, on the opening night of the National Finals Rodeo. It's the full band under the "Darling Blue Tour Pt. 2" banner, not a solo or acoustic King date: "Darling Blue" is the group's first album together since 2018's "Carolina Confessions," reissued in May 2026 as "Darling Blue / No Room For Blue," and the set runs country, folk, psychedelic rock and Motown-era R&B. Las Vegas was one of four December dates added to the run, with Anaheim, Fresno and Reno. Tickets went on sale August 14, 2026 through AXS, with $1 from each going to the Curfew Fellowship Fund for musicians facing mental health and addiction struggles.

The start time is genuinely unsettled: the venue posts doors at 7:30, the Las Vegas Sun reported 8 p.m., and ticket listings show 8:30. Trust the ticket. NFR opening night is when the city's December rates and Paradise Road traffic peak, with the rodeo at Thomas & Mack a mile away. No face price is published anywhere we could verify. The Theater holds 4,600, admits children from 4 on a full-price ticket, enforces a one-small-item bag rule and offers free self-parking. Being a venue debut, there's no local track record for how the band's sound sits in the room.

The December calendar has the rest of rodeo week.
