Shakedown Vegas, the vibrant midway activation complementing Dead & Company’s 2025 Spring Residency at the Sphere, has officially reached its halfway mark—and organizers report momentum has never been stronger. Attendance has consistently surpassed initial projections, and attendee feedback confirms that “everybody is having a real good time!”

Now in its second week, Shakedown Vegas at the Tuscany Suites has welcomed more than 140 unique vendors, with fresh artisans and food purveyors joining the lineup each week. Fans have spent hours meandering through pop‑up markets, sampling local and regional cuisine, and discovering one‑of‑a‑kind treasures—all under the desert sky.

Live entertainment remains at the heart of the experience. Daily free performances fill the resort’s courtyard from Tuesday through Saturday, while Drumbus.com’s Drum Circle Saturdays have become the weekend centerpiece, drawing impromptu crowds into lively communal rhythms. Bands from coast to coast continue to roll into Las Vegas expressly to join the fun, ensuring that every visit brings new musical surprises.
