Legendary rockers Styx have schedules a five-night engagement at The Venetian Las Vegas as part of their their 2025 tour. For the first time in their 50 year career, Styx will be performing 1977’s “The Grand Illusion” in its entirety, along with the band’s classic hits. The shows will be held on January 24th, 25th, 29th, 31st, and February 1st of next year. Tickets start at just $45, plus applicable charges and fees, and are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com, and at the Venetian Las Vegas website and box office located at the resort.
“The Grand Illusion” is the biggest seller in the band’s catalog. It reached #6 on the Billboard “Top 200 Albums” chart, and spawned the smash hits “Come Sail Away,” which reached #8 on Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart, and “Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man),” which made it to #29. The album has been certified triple Platinum by the RIAA, having sold over three million copies to date, and it was the first in the band’s groundbreaking string of releasing four multi-Platinum albums in a row.
The album’s iconic cover art by Alton Kelley and Stanley Mouse is modeled after Belgian surrealist René Magritte’s 1965 piece titled Le Blanc Seing, a.k.a. The Blank Check. “The album’s artwork has stood the test of time,” declares keyboardist/vocalist Lawrence Gowan. “It looks so engaging today, when I see that equestrian image mixed with the forest, the woman’s eyes, and the female face. It’s one of the great icons of rock history, and rock lore. I’m happy to see it continue to be celebrated.”
All of their Vegas shows will take place in The Venetian Theatre, a spacious, tri-level venue boasting state-of-the-art lighting and sound with clear sightlines from each seat. Powered by cutting-edge audio and visual technology and featuring the bright lights of the stage, the theatre adds a touch of drama to any event.
