Raiding the Rock Vault will close its legendary Las Vegas run with a final show at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Strip on December 30, 2025, ending a 12-year residency that has become one of the city’s most beloved rock spectacles.

As of today, there are 5 shows left. Tonight, November 29th, December 23rd, 25th, 27th, and the final show on December 30th. So, you'd better get moving and grab your tickets before they're gone!

When Raiding The Rock Vault landed in Las Vegas, it wasn’t just another tribute show—it was a declaration that the Strip would forever keep the flame of classic rock burning. Nestled among neon marquees and Cirque du Soleil spectacles, this production carved out its own identity by offering something raw, loud, and unapologetically authentic. Unlike the polished pop revues that dominate casino theaters, Rock Vault brought in the real deal: musicians who had lived the glory days of arena tours, platinum records, and backstage chaos. "Real Rock Real Rockstars"!

For locals, it became a rallying point—a reminder that Vegas isn’t only about glitz and gambling, but also about honoring the soundtrack of their youth. For tourists, it was a time machine: one night you could be transported from the British Invasion to Sunset Strip glam, all without leaving your seat at the Hard Rock Cafe. The show’s rotating lineup kept it fresh, with legends from bands like Foreigner, Asia, and Heart stepping in to shred solos and belt anthems. That unpredictability gave audiences the thrill of seeing history unfold live, as if the Strip itself had become a backstage pass to rock’s greatest hits.

In a city built on reinvention, Raiding The Rock Vault proved that legacy has a place alongside spectacle. Every riff, every chorus, every leather-clad performance kept the spirit of rock alive in a town that thrives on nostalgia as much as novelty. 

The Strip may change, but thanks to Raiding The Rock Vault, the roar of guitars and the echo of anthems will always have a home in Las Vegas.

I would like to thank Sir Harry Cowell (Creator & Producer), Erik Nielsen (Media), all the staff, and all the rock stars who have performed in the show over the years for always treating me like family. You're all Rockstars to me! And to Raiding The Rock Vault's Biggest Fan, Fukiko Kuranuki, you give a whole new meaning to how a music fan is defined. She's attended 395 shows and counting!

On December 30, 2025, Raiding the Rock Vault will take its final Las Vegas bow at the Hard Rock Cafe on the Las Vegas Strip, concluding more than a decade of electrifying performances that have defined the city’s rock entertainment landscape. While Las Vegas audiences will miss the nightly celebration of classic rock delivered by an all‑star cast of legendary musicians, the production’s story is far from over. In 2026, Raiding the Rock Vault will embark on an international tour across North America, the UK, and Europe, ensuring that its powerful legacy and timeless music continue to inspire fans worldwide.

Raiding The Rock Vault will be sorely missed in Las Vegas! 

But one day, Raiding The Rock Vault just might return! 

In Vegas, you just never know!
