Nights Like This TourThe **“Nights Like This” Tour** featuring **Ne-Yo** and **Akon** arrives in **Las Vegas** with an electrifying performance at the **MGM Grand Garden Arena** on **August 14, 2026**. This highly anticipated stop is part of a larger global tour that celebrates both artists’ era-defining hits and their lasting impact on R&B, pop, and hip-hop music. Produced by Live Nation, the tour brings the two powerhouse performers together in a collaborative, back-and-forth concert format that blurs the lines between separate headline sets — instead offering fans a dynamic, shared stage experience.
