Barry Manilow returns to Las Vegas for fifth year

Barry Manilow, who has made the Las Vegas Hilton his home since February 23, 2005, returns to kick off his fifth year on February 26-28 in the legendary Hilton Theater. Manilow is performing at the Las Vegas Hilton through 2009, generally on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. He will perform 21 weekends for 63 shows this year.

Stage seat tickets are $225 (plus tax and service charge), with 34 located on each side of the stage and at the same level. Main orchestra tickets are $145-$175 (plus tax and service charge); rear orchestra tickets are $96-$125 (plus tax and service charge) and balcony seats are $115 (plus tax and service charge).

"Barry Manilow's talent and catalog of hits make him an exceptional entertainer who has no peer," said Rudy Prieto, CEO and general manager of the Las Vegas Hilton, in a statement. "While many performers rest on their laurels, Manilow continues to show that his creativity never stops."

"The Las Vegas Hilton is a wonderful place to play," added Manilow. "Now I know why Elvis never wanted to leave."

Manilow began his long-term engagement with the Hilton in 2005 with Manilow: Music and Passion. His new show, Ultimately Manilow: The Hits, debuted in August 2008.
