Purple Reign, THE Prince Tribute Show Tickets

Purple Reign is Jason Tenner's Prince — a tribute act with real history: it made television history in 2008 as the first tribute band ever booked as musical guest on Letterman, and it survived its longtime home's demolition, moving from the Tropicana (final show there June 2024) to the V Theater at the Miracle Mile Shops. Tenner has studied the look, the moves and the guitar work for two decades; the band behind him plays the catalog live, from “Let's Go Crazy” through the “Purple Rain” closer.

Current logistics: about three nights a week — typically Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday — at 8:30 PM, roughly 90 minutes, ages 16+ with under-18s accompanied. Face tickets from about $27 with fees, while resale sites list the same seats past $112 — among the worst markup ratios in town, so buy official only. The V Theater is a compact mall showroom: production values are modest, proximity is total, and for a concert-style tribute the second matters more.
