Duran Duran at the BleauLive Theater at the Fontainebleau, Las Vegas
2026-01-01 08:00 - 19:00, 2026-01-02 00:00 | Fontainebleau, 2777 S Las Vegas Blvd Las Vegas, NV 89109, United States
On January 1 & 2, 2026, Duran Duran will welcome in the new year with back-to-back performances at the BleauLive Theater in Las Vegas.
The BleauLive Theater is a stylish, state-of-the-art venue located at Fontainebleau Las Vegas (2777 S Las Vegas Blvd) and features three levels of immersive production, seating for up to approximately 3,800 guests and flexible floor configurations ideal for touring acts.
Heading to the show? Here are your venue and show-day highlights:

Arrive early: With the show on the Strip at a major resort, allow extra time for parking, hotel check-in and venue entry.

Seating & Atmosphere: While the BleauLive offers modern tech and luxury, some early guest reviews note that orchestra-floor seating may feel tight; many fans prefer tiered seats for clearer sight-lines.

Stay the night: The concert venue sits within the Fontainebleau resort — so staying on-site means you’re a short walk from your hotel room post-show.

Encore Moment: A January 1 show from Duran Duran isn’t just a concert — it’s a New Year’s event. Think celebration, crowd energy and late-night vibes.

If you’re planning to ring in 2026 with Duran Duran, there’s no better place than BleauLive. See you at the front of the queue, ready for the lights to come down and the bass to come up.

Catch Duran Duran live at Viejas Arena in San Diego on Jan 4, 2026—an 80s-iconic show at the 12,400-seat venue you won’t want to miss!
Venue Overview
Located on the campus of San Diego State University at 5500 Canyon Crest Drive, the Viejas Arena opened in 1997 and serves both the Aztecs athletic programs and major live music events. Wikipedia+2Associated Students+2For concerts, the capacity reaches up to about 12,800. Wikipedia+1As a venue, it strikes a balance: big enough for a major show, but small enough that most seats still feel connected to the stage.
Things to Know Before You Go
Here’s your fan-friendly checklist to make sure your night at Viejas Arena with Duran Duran on January 4, 2026 starts smooth:
✅ Clearance & Bag Policy

Viejas is a clear-bag venue: only clear plastic or vinyl bags (max 12″ × 6″ × 12″) or one-gallon clear freezer bags allowed. Small purses up to 4.5″ × 6.5″ are permitted. Associated Students

Backpacks? Leave ’em in the car.

Expect security screening at entry—no shortcuts.

🎟 Entry & Timing

Concerts usually open 60–90 minutes prior to showtime. Heartlight San Diego+1

Arrive early. Parking and crowds can become congested, especially on a big-name act night.

Sitting upstairs? Enjoy better sight-lines. Floor sections? Get in early to stake your ground.

🅿 Parking & Access

Parking lots P12 and P7 are commonly used for event parking. Associated Students+1

Public transit: You can reach Viejas via the SDSU trolley/bus stop—ideal if you want to skip parking hassle. Reddit+1

🛍 Venue Comfort & Amenities

The sound and visuals are top-tier; many concert-goers praise the acoustics. Wanderlog

Downsides: Some seats have steep climbs; food & drink can get pricey. Bring water if allowed or plan accordingly.

Note that the arena is cashless—cards, phone payments only. Associated Students

🎤 Seating & View

Section ratings emphasize that lower bowl seating (especially nearer to the stage) will deliver the best experience. See vantage points on “RateYourSeats”. Rate Your Seats

Standing on floor? If your ticket is general admission, arrive early for a decent spot; if seats, aim for areas with airtime in front.

Smart Fan Tips for the Night

Dress smart: This is San Diego in January—chilly enough to bring a light jacket, but you’ll be warm once the lights drop.

Merch: If you want band tees or limited editions, consider arriving early (often before doors) to avoid long queues.

Phone battery: Concert nights drain batteries fast—carry a battery pack if you’ll be documenting the show.

Ear protection: Real-deal advice from local concert-goers—bring earplugs for comfort, especially if you’re near the floor. Reddit

Seats vs. Floor: If you prefer to sing, dance, and move freely, go floor. If you want comfort and view, pick lower-bowl seats.

Post-show exit: After a big show, parking lot traffic can back up. Consider rideshare or walking to nearby parking if possible.

Venue Vibes & Expectations
Expect a night full of energy. Viejas Arena’s size means you’ll get both the intensity of a large show and the connection of a more intimate venue. For Duran Duran fans, this means your front-row heart-moment (“The Reflex”, “Ordinary World”) will land hard—and even up in the nosebleeds, the sound and visuals hold up.

Duran Duran at the Honda Center, Anaheim, CA
2026-01-08 00:00 | Honda Center, Honda Center 2695 E Katella Ave Anaheim, CA 92806-5904, United States
Venue Overview
Located at 2695 East Katella Avenue, Anaheim, California 92806, the Honda Center opened in 1993 and has since become a premier destination for major concerts and sporting events in Southern California. With a concert capacity typically ranging up to around 18,000 seats (depending on staging configuration) it delivers big-show energy without losing the feeling of proximity.
Why It Works for Duran Duran
For fans of Duran Duran, the Honda Center hits the sweet spot: large enough to host high-production visuals and sound, yet intimate enough that you don’t feel miles away from the stage. Expect strong acoustics, modern amenities, and a layout that works whether you’re floor-standing or in the bowl.

Smart Fan Tips & Things to Know
Here’s what to keep in mind for your night at the show:
🕒 Arrive EarlyVenue recommendations suggest arriving at least 60 minutes before doors open to account for parking, traffic, and entry screening.
🚗 Parking & Transport

On-site parking is available, but lots fill up quickly—pre-book where possible.

The surrounding area (OC Vibe/Platinum Triangle) is undergoing development, so build in extra time for traffic and changes.

Consider rideshare or public transit as alternatives to avoid parking stress.

🎒 Bag & Entry Policy

For concerts: bags must generally be no larger than 5 in × 9 in × 2 in, and backpacks are typically not permitted.

The venue is cashless—card or mobile payment only for concessions and parking.

📍 Seating & Sightlines

Floor tickets: Great for getting close to the action, but prepare for standing and potentially tight crowding.

Bowl seats: Offer a more relaxed vantage point and still very good sound and view.

If you prefer some breathing room, aim for lower to mid-terrace levels (200/300 sections).

📱 Tech & Comfort

Bring a portable charger: Your phone will likely be used for photos, maps, rideshare apps, etc.

Ear protection (earplugs) can help—near the stage the levels can get intense.

Dress in layers: Even though it’s Anaheim, indoor arenas often run cooler, and you’ll warm up during the show anyway.

🍔 Food & Beverage

The Honda Center features multiple concession stands and restaurants (including an indoor-outdoor space called Brewery X Biergarten) for pre-show meals and drinks.

Prices tend to be higher than normal, so budgeting ahead is smart.

🚪 Exiting & Post-Show

The area around the venue can get congested after a show. If you drove, be patient with post-event traffic.

If you used rideshare, be sure to locate your designated pickup spot ahead of time.

Seeing Duran Duran at the Honda Center promises a night where production, performance, and fan energy all align. With a mix of hit-heavy setlists and deep cuts, paired with a venue built to deliver big moments, you’re in for something special. Pack smart, arrive early, and get ready to feel the reflex — it’s going to be a show worth remembering.

Duran Duran at Thunder Valley Casino, Lincoln, CA
2026-01-09 00:00 | Thunder Valley Casino, 1200 Athens Ave Lincoln, CA 95648, United States
At a Glance

Address: 1200 Athens Avenue, Lincoln, CA near the city of Lincoln / Whitney, ~30 miles northeast of Sacramento.

Capacity: Approx. 4,500 seats (all indoors) for concerts.

Opening & Features: The Venue opened in early 2023 as part of the resort expansion — 150,000 square feet, cutting-edge sound and video systems, multi-level design.

Why it’s a good pick for Duranies: A size like this means you’re closer to the stage, the production values are top-tier, and you avoid the vastness of massive arenas — perfect for a band like Duran Duran with both hits and deep cuts.

What to Know Before You Go
Here are vital tips to make the night smooth and memorable:
🎫 Arrival & Doors

Doors typically open around 60 minutes before show time.

Plan extra time for arrival — resort traffic, parking, and entry screening can eat minutes.

Arrive early if you want to grab merch or get a preferred spot (for floor or GA) and avoid last-minute rush.

🚗 Parking & Access

Parking is on-site at the resort. While capacity is good, consider arriving early to secure a convenient spot.

The resort is a bit outside major urban centers, so rideshare options may be slower rural than big-city venues.

Because it’s near Sacramento, if you’re coming from farther, consider accommodations and traffic early.

🎒 Bag & Entry Policies

The official FAQ says there is a bag policy — expect sealed water bottles only (no tumblers/camelbacks) in many cases. Thunder Valley Casino Resort

Backpacks or large bags may be restricted.

No coat check or personal storage in the venue — plan to store extra items in your car or hotel room.

📍 Seating, Sightlines & Sound

With a 4,500 capacity, even your upper seats will feel closer than many large-arena shows.

The venue was designed with precise acoustics (see L-Acoustics system) so sound quality tends to hold up well throughout the house.

Floor standing or GA sections are likely most energetic — go early if you want front-zone.

If you prefer comfort and view, choose seats in the lower bowl or sections where sightlines are less steep.

🍔 Food, Drink & Comfort

The resort offers multiple dining options and bar access throughout the venue space.

Expect standard concert pricing for concessions; arrive early if you want pre-show food.

Dress in layers — even indoor venues can be cool until the energy ramps up.

🔋 Phones, Photos, & Post-Show

Bring a portable charger — capturing moments or navigating rideshare will use battery.

Check whether the show allows phones/photos — some events restrict depending on production.

After the show, exiting may take a few minutes while crowds depart; plan accordingly.

Final Fan Notes

Since this is a resort venue, consider making the night a full-experience: dinner, show, maybe stay overnight — especially if you’re traveling.

Cozy enough to feel connected, but spacious enough to allow major production — this show promises a night where you won’t feel like just another face in the crowd.

For fans of Duran Duran’s setlist diversity, this venue gives a chance to hear both big hits and perhaps deeper gems in a setting where you’ll see the band, not just watch screens.

Get your gear ready, your Duranie spirit locked in, and prepare for a standout night at The Venue at Thunder Valley. The lights drop, the bass thumps — and you’re part of it.

Rio Album Released
2026-05-10
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RIO!
Rio, the second studio album by Duran Duran, debuted on May 10, 1982, through EMI. Produced by Colin Thurston, the band recorded the album at AIR Studios in London between January and March 1982. Expanding their sound from the debut album, they experimented with instruments like vibraphone and marimba, alongside unique effects such as lit cigarettes and cracking ice. The saxophone solo on “Rio” was played by Andy Hamilton, adding a distinctive flair to the track.
Blending synth-pop, new wave, and pop rock with elements of disco and funk, Rio features energetic tracks balanced by slower, atmospheric ballads. Simon Le Bon’s lyrics explore themes of ambition, romance, and dreams, while the album’s vibrant title reflects its exotic and optimistic tone. The iconic cover art, designed by Patrick Nagel, is celebrated as a hallmark of 1980s style.
The band embraced the power of music videos to accompany Rio’s singles, which helped define the MTV generation and contributed to the album’s global success. With hits like “Hungry Like the Wolf” and “Save a Prayer,” Rio reached number two on the UK charts and stayed for 110 weeks. Although initially slow to gain traction in the US, a remixed version tailored to American radio eventually climbed to number six on the Billboard chart, spending 129 weeks there.
The album is often praised for its innovative instrumentation, infectious melodies, and timeless appeal, solidifying its place as one of Duran Duran’s most celebrated works and a cornerstone of the Second British Invasion. Rio continues to be recognized on best-of lists and has been reissued multiple times.

Duran Duran First Album Released
2026-06-15
HAPPY DURAN DURAN RELEASE DAY JUNE 15!
Duran Duran’s self-titled debut album, released on June 15, 1981, marked the beginning of the English pop rock band’s career. Produced by Colin Thurston, the album was recorded between December 1980 and January 1981 in London and Oxfordshire. Instrumental tracks came together quickly, but lead singer Simon Le Bon faced challenges in the studio, sparking brief discussions about replacing him before EMI’s Dave Ambrose stepped in to resolve the situation.
Drawing inspiration from artists like David Bowie, the Human League, Japan, and Chic, the album blends synthesizer-driven pop with atmospheric elements of disco, punk, and dance. Simon Le Bon’s enigmatic lyrics explore themes of youthful struggles and the band’s ambitions. Visuals for the album and its singles were crafted by designer Malcolm Garrett.
The album spawned three singles, each supported by music videos that played a significant role in its success. The provocative video for “Girls on Film” stirred controversy but also boosted visibility for MTV in the United States.
The album has been recognized for its innovative sound, helping to define the New Romantic movement. It was remastered and reissued in 2010 as a special edition featuring additional demos and live recordings.

Papp László Budapest Sportaréna Stefánia út 2 Budapest, Hungary

When Duran Duran return to Papp László Budapest Sportaréna on June 28, 2026, it won’t be their first time lighting up one of Central Europe’s most vibrant music cities. In fact, the band has a quiet history with Budapest that stretches back decades.
They first played the city on December 6, 1988, during the Big Thing tour at the old Budapest Sportcsarnok. Years later, they returned to the same arena complex—this time the modern Papp László Budapest Sportaréna—on June 28, 2012, as part of the All You Need Is Now world tour.
Now, more than a decade after that last Budapest appearance, Duran Duran are set to step onto the arena stage again for a highly anticipated 2026 show, bringing their ever-evolving live production and a catalog of songs that have soundtracked generations.

Duran Duran at Sofia Arena, Sofia, Bulgaria
2026-07-01 19:30 - 22:00 | Sofia Arena, bul. Asen Yordanov 1 Sofia, Bulgaria, Bulgaria
DURAN DURAN at SOFIA ARENA, Jul 1, 2026, 7:30 PM GMT+3

When Duran Duran bring their tour to Arena Sofia, the band will be performing in one of the largest and most modern concert venues in Sofia. Located near the expansive Borisova Gradina, the arena sits just east of the city center and is a major hub for international concerts, sporting events, and touring productions.
Arena Sofia—often still referred to by its original name, Arena Armeec—opened in 2011 and quickly became Bulgaria’s premier indoor venue. With a capacity of roughly 12,000–15,000 people depending on configuration, the arena regularly hosts global touring acts and large cultural events. The venue’s location near Borisova Gradina also means concertgoers are just minutes from some of Sofia’s most recognizable landmarks, including the Vasil Levski National Stadium and the leafy park paths that locals use to escape the bustle of the city.
For Duran Duran fans in Bulgaria, this show carries extra significance: the band has never previously performed in Sofia, making this appearance a long-awaited first for audiences in the country.

Duran Duran at Arena di Verona — Verona, Italy
July 7, 2026
On July 7, 2026, Duran Duran will perform at the legendary Arena di Verona, one of the most spectacular live music venues in the world. Located in Verona, the ancient amphitheater sits in the heart of Piazza Bra and has hosted concerts, opera, and major cultural events for decades.
Built in the 1st century AD, the Arena di Verona is one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters still in use today. With seating for around 15,000 spectators, it has become famous for its summer opera festival and for hosting iconic concerts by international artists in a setting that combines ancient architecture with modern sound and staging. The open-air venue’s stone terraces and dramatic acoustics make it one of Europe’s most atmospheric places to see a live show.
For Duran Duran, Verona is not new territory. The band has performed at the Arena several times across different eras of their career, returning whenever touring schedules bring them back to Italy. Known performances at the venue include:

2005 – during the Astronaut Tour

July 16, 2012 – on the All You Need Is Now Tour

June 8, 2016 – during the Paper Gods Tour

August 31, 2021 – performing as part of the Power Hits Estate event
