<p>The success of <i>‘Kiss All The Time, Disco Occasionally’ </i>marks the biggest opening week for a male soloist since Ed Sheeran’s <i>Divide </i>which was released in March 2017. Harry&#8217;s latest album is the first to surpass 100,000 weekly sales since Taylor Swift’s <i>‘The Life Of A Showgirl’</i> in October 2025. Olivia Dean’s <i>‘The Art Of Loving’ </i>and Morrissey’s <i>‘Make-Up Is A Lie’</i> take up the second and third sports on the albums chart respectively.</p>
<p>Styles is set to take the album on tour starting in May with dates in the UK, Europe, South America, North America and Australia with support from acts including Shania Twain, Jorja Smith and Robyn. Ahead of the shows, the British singer also performed for one night only in Manchester and released a showing of the performance of Netflix allowing fans to get a taste of what might be to come.</p>

<p>The 31 year old came to fame on the ITV&#8217;s The X Factor in 2010 alongside Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, and Louis Tomlinson as a part of One Direction. Following the group’s hiatus, Harry Styles released his first album in 2017. <i>‘Harry Styles’</i> peaked at number one in the UK and the US and was one of the world&#8217;s top-ten best-selling albums of the year. His second album ‘<i>Fine Line’ </i>and it’s most popular single ‘Watermelon sugar both topped US Billboard Charts. Whilst, his third album <i>‘Harry’s House’ </i>received the Grammy Award for Album Of the Year.</p>
<p>Most recently, Styles was both the musical guest and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwvzO1UWNKY">host on SNL</a>. Last night, he performed ‘Dance No More’ and ‘Carla’s Song’ as well as taking part and showing his acting prowess in many skits. Styles has dipped his toe into acting with a cameo in Marvel’s Eternals, as well as leading roles in My Policeman and Don’t Worry Darling.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">“Let me go to work,” says pop icon Harry Styles in the trailer for his upcoming concert film, <i>One Night In Manchester. </i>The short, 30-second trailer, below, shows clips of Styles and collaborators rehearsing backed by his single, ‘Aperture.’</p>
<p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/NfUmPsQnTZ4?si=c_IlPQvhugaeM2I-" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p class="p1">The film will capture the singer’s One Night Only show, where he will perform the entirety of his latest album, <i>‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.’<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span></i>The show takes place tonight, Friday 6 March at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena. The concert film will be available to stream on Netflix Sunday 8 March.</p>
<p class="p1">Tonight’s show will be Styles’ first full concert in almost three years. The trailer shows the flurry of activity in preparation for the concert, while the pulsing beats of ‘Aperture’ and intercut archived crowd shows build anticipation for what is to come.</p>
<p class="p1">No one is more eager for Styles’ live return than his fans. Since as early as Thursday 5 March, fans have been camping outside the Co-op Live in Manchester, in hopes of snagging the best spot for Friday’s concert. These fans have come from all over the world, <a href="https://www.itv.com/news/granada/2026-03-06/harry-styles-fans-camp-out-for-one-night-only-gig">one fan from Florida told <i>ITV, </i></a>“I took three flights to get here &#8211; it took 30 hours &#8211; but it is the best. His music saved my life and the community he created is the best.”<a href="https://www.itv.com/news/granada/2026-03-06/harry-styles-fans-camp-out-for-one-night-only-gig"> Another fan said, </a>“We have been waiting for three years and I&#8217;m so excited he is back. I have been a fan since I was 12.”</p>
<p class="p1">Tickets for the concert were just £20 and fans will be required to lock their phones away for the event. They will be given recyclable pouches to store their phones in for the duration of the event, and any other recording devices such as cameras, smart watches and smart glasses will not be permitted. If the professionally-shot Netflix concert film was not enough compensation for this, <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/whats-on/music-nightlife-news/harry-styles-one-night-only-33525981">disposable cameras will be issued to ticket holders so they may</a> “capture your own special moments and share them after the show.”</p>
<p class="p1">Additionally, Styles announced screenings of <i>One Night In Manchester </i>in six UK cities: London, Brighton, Edinburgh, Chester, York and Liverpool. Fans must register for a chance to attend these screenings, and can do so at <a href="https://forms.sonymusicfans.com/campaign/harry-styles-screening-form-uk/?fbclid=IwY2xjawQXZsRleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFQbWhtWmhkZnd0NkttQ1psc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHtVCv6kzRsk48dNx6RhF8V5QqeK0b_k38ukUaGJ-yOWACI2hsC4I8kT5lKAF_aem_23iCfcxicTQjCIYbXlkoGA">this link.</a> More details of these screenings can be found compiled <a href="https://www.clashmusic.com/reviews/harry-styles-kiss-all-the-time-disco-occasionally/">here</a>.</p>
<p class="p1">Later this year Styles will set off on a live tour, called <i>Together, Together</i>. The tour will see him play residences in a series of cities, worldwide. He will spend a record-breaking 12 nights at London’s Wembley Stadium (breaking Taylor Swift’s previously held record with her 8 nights at Wembley stadium in 2024). He’ll spend a staggering 30 nights at New York City’s Madison Square Garden. Those shows saw over 11.5 million pre-sale registrations. Other stops on the <i>Together, Together </i>tour include Amsterdam, São Paulo, Mexico City, Melbourne and Sydney.</p>
<p class="p1">All of this comes in support for Styles’ fourth album, <i>‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally.’<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span></i>which has received four star reviews from <a href="http://rollingstone.com/music/music-album-reviews/harry-styles-kiss-all-the-time-disco-occasionally-review-1235524301/%20"><i>Rolling Stone</i></a><i>, </i><a href="https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/harry-styles-review-kiss-all-the-time-lyrics-b2930954.html%20"><i>The Independent</i><i> </i></a>and<a href="https://www.nme.com/reviews/album/harry-styles-kiss-all-the-time-disco-occasionally-review-3932624%20"> <i>NME</i></a><i>. </i><a href="https://www.clashmusic.com/reviews/harry-styles-kiss-all-the-time-disco-occasionally/"><i>Clash </i>calls it</a> “an ode to the redemptive power of the dance, to the euphoria only club culture can provide.” <a href="https://www.clashmusic.com/reviews/harry-styles-kiss-all-the-time-disco-occasionally/">Critics also say the electronic, pop-leaning sound </a>“[moves] him in a fresh direction” while the album’s through line is described as “a successful embrace of personal, and above all sensual, evolution.”</p>
<p class="p1"><i>One Night in Manchester</i>, produced by Fulwell Entertainment, will come to Netflix this Sunday, March 8. Invitations for the six UK screenings will be given on Saturday 7 March.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heightening the excitement shared by patient super fans and avid concert goers, British DJ and producer Fred Again… debuted a new snippet of an unheard Harry Styles track, ‘Coming Up Roses.’</p>
<p>Styles’ garden fresh fourth solo record, ‘<em>Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally’</em> is set to arrive on March 6, 2026. In preparation Styles released his first single in 4 years, ‘Aperture.’ The new track is riddled with electronic dance music influences; Styles seems to be distancing himself from his earlier indie-pop roots, definitely working in his favour, fans and casual listeners alike cannot get enough of the new track. Unsurprisingly the new single performed astronomically well, shooting up to the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100, only continuing to gain traction after 4 weeks on the chart. It is clear that big time Styles fans were desperate for something new to chew on.</p>
<p>Beloved DJ, Fred Again… played an expectedly captivating set in London’s Alexandra Palace on February 26. Despite being an artist that continuously has tricks up his sleeve, always guaranteed to wow fans, his 90 second teasing of Styles’ new song to a crowded room of ravers was something that nobody saw coming.</p>
<p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CBDBjXLus9Y?si=376ANx7LzNx_wyTp" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>Countless fans have shared short clips of the release online, the song appears to be a string arrangement ballad, layered with vocals of Styles singing; “We sleep half the night with your head on my chest, me and you/There’s only me and you.”</p>
<p>In addition to elevating Styles’ new track, Fred Again… recently released his own new album, ‘<em>USB002</em>.’ The celebrated new record saw the DJ debuting 10 new tracks throughout his European and North American tour. Excitement reigned highly among audiences and additionally receiving an unheard Styles snippet is bound to have been pure magic. Truly a show to remember.</p>
<p>It’s meticulously planned that the song would rightfully be premiered during a dance event, given the album’s orientation and title. The intimate act of Styles placing the distribution within the hands of the British producer is leaving fans to speculate wether Fred Again… himself worked on the track. Despite this, there currently is no inclination that he did.</p>
<p>Anticipating the new record, Styles arranged worldwide listening parties earlier this month. Fans in attendance having experienced the new record in all its glory have confirmed the new mystery track is titled, ‘Coming Up Roses.’</p>
<p>Styles’ new record will belong to fans before we know it. Produced by Kid Harpon, electronically influenced, notably by legends LCD Soundsystem, this new album is guaranteed to shock old audiences and reel some new ones in.</p>
<p>In support of this exciting venture Styles announced a tour to go hand in hand with his new release, unfortunately the vast majority of the tickets have largely sold out, notably within minutes. This includes the 12-show run at Wembley Stadium, despite this there is still possible hope from official resellers so keep your eyes peeled.</p>
<p>We cannot wait to hear exactly what Styles has been chipping away on behind the scenes. Make sure to listen to Styles’ new record, ‘<a href="http://https://open.spotify.com/track/45Z3m6yazmAi4jZuW0tzW0?si=fi5rvRSgR3Gv6V45Bvid-Q"><em>Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally</em>’</a> on March 6, 2026.</p>

<p>London’s Southbank Centre is home to the early summer festival, Meltdown. The festival has reigned highly in local’s hearts for years and is currently the worlds longest running artist curated music festival, 2026 being their 75 year in action. Each year the festival welcomes iconic artists to brainstorm their own personal festival which demonstrates both their interests and influences on stage.</p>
<p>During its early years, the festival followed a more contemporary path often featuring classical composers in the likes of George Benjamin, Louis Andriessen and Magnus Lindberg. The festivals third edition had offered a slight departure from this traditional route with Jeff Buckley joining the bill in 1995. Unfortunately, this would tragically be Buckley’s final UK show.</p>
<p>In the year of 2026, Meltdown has continued to shine a spotlight on new London based musical acts and provide an exciting whimsical night of music and festivities.</p>
<p>Each year, one celebrity is invited to curate the festival, the responsibilities consist of the chosen celebrity handpicking a roster of their favoured musical talents to take part in a two-week long programme of gigs, after-parties, and engaging activities.</p>
<p>Previous Meltdown directors have included David Bowie, Patti Smith, Nick Cave, Morrissey and John peel. Ticket information regarding performance schedule or pricing are not yet available for fans to see, there is an option to sign up to a mailing list to receive any crucial updates.</p>
<p>The festival runs from 11 to 21 June and withholds a captaincy of 2700, setting the stage for an intimate night to remember. Fans are undoubtedly prepared to fight tooth and nail to get tickets to the prestigiously small event.</p>
<p>Last years curator saw multi-award-winning north London rapper, Little Simz overseeing the chosen musical talent.</p>
<p>Choosing Styles as a curator is bound to beneficially rub off on the event due to his broad influences from pop, soul, and electronic music.</p>
<p>Arriving during a busy period for the 32-year-old, Styles has thrown himself headfirst back into the limelight after his touring hiatus since 2023. With a highly anticipated tour announcement, new music and listening parties dotted around the globe fans sure are being fed with tonnes of content. Alike the Meltdown festival, Styles announced an intimate one-night only show at the Co-op Live on March 6, 2026. The shows tickets were rolled out via a ballot system.</p>
<p>Guaranteed to be a ticketing challenge, tickets are set to fly out for this once a lifetime musical experience. The legendary lineup is headed to house a variety of seminal artists delivering packed set-lists for a small, heartfelt audience.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The world’s collective high school sweetheart, Harry Styles has made his long-awaited musical return. Styles released a brand-new track, ‘Aperture’ on January 23. Fans have waited nearly four years for something to chew on from the singer and he sure as hell delivered.</p>
<p>The song is the first single from his pristine record, ‘<em>Kiss All The Time Disco, Occasionally.’</em> The record is set to release on March 6 and the first taster is suggesting we are in for a real upbeat treat. The lead single features Wolf Alice front-woman Ellie Rowsell on backing vocals, making for a whimsy filled adventure.</p>
<p>Styles has not released new material since 2022, his last project being the notorious, ‘<em>Harry’s House’</em>. The record was a tremendous success debuting at number 1 in both the US and the UK charts. The record was the UK’s fastest-selling album and the top selling vinyl of 2022. Undoubtedly, you will have a family member or friend who also attended the fabled ‘Love On Tour’. The tour was in celebration of Styles’ 2019 record ‘<em>Fine Line’</em> and ‘<em>Harry’s House’.</em> The tour spanned from September 2021 all the way through to July 2023, selling out the vast majority of shows and grossed 86.3 million dollars.</p>
<p>Not only has Styles been working on music behind the scenes, but he is also making his overdue return to the stage. The record-breaking musician will be performing at the BRIT awards on February 28. The award ceremony is set to receive the live debut of Styles’ new single and we simply cannot wait to see how he brings it to life.</p>
<p>Alongside this, the surprises keep coming as fans are being well-fed with new musical material, the Cheshire raised singer has announced an insane 12-night run at Wembley, this is a new record for an elongated residency at Wembley stadium. Coldplay previously held the title with a run of 10 shows in 2025. Taylor Swift also came close to the record with eight sold out Wembley shows for her Eras Tour. Buzz has surrounded the tour for a few weeks as cryptic visual billboards started to make their way into famed cities. The billboards sent fans into a frenzy, speculating a return on the horizon.</p>
<p>The UK are not the only ones receiving a visit from the musician, Styles is set to perform in Amsterdam, London, Brazil, Mexico City, New York City, Melbourne, and Sydney. With a colossal 30 dates at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The Wembley dates are as follows:</p>
<p>&#8211;              Friday, June 12</p>
<p>&#8211;              Saturday, June 13</p>
<p>&#8211;              Wednesday, June 17</p>
<p>&#8211;              Friday, June 19</p>
<p>&#8211;              Saturday, June 20</p>
<p>&#8211;              Tuesday, June 23</p>
<p>&#8211;              Friday, June 26</p>
<p>&#8211;              Saturday, June 27</p>
<p>Embarking on this worldwide endeavour with the artist is Canadian singer, Shania Twain.</p>
<p>Tickets are extremely high demand and without a doubt tickets are guaranteed to rapidly sell out. General sale tickets are set to go on sale at <a href="http://https://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/harry-styles-tickets/artist/5228999">2pm on Friday January 30</a>. There are also presale options available on Ticketmaster.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One Direction star, Harry Styles is seemingly teasing a long-awaited new record. The speculations arose after numerous billboards have been sighted in cities across the world. Fans have been sent into a frenzy since the cryptic billboards have been appearing in their hometowns. The billboards feature an image of a crowd with the text, ‘WE BELONG TOGETHER” . It appears the announcement of new music is imminent however just when will that be. Right on form, Styles seems to be doing this whilst sharing as very little as possible, leaving fans to decipher his messages between one another.</p>
<p>A website carrying the same message has also appeared under Styles’ name. With no additional context it is hard to pinpoint the reasoning for this new content, but it seems the best is yet to come. Upon viewing the website, fans can then access a WhatsApp link that displays the same, ‘We Belong Together’ message. The chat opens a business message with HSHQ (Harry Styles HQ), following this fans are then required to enter their own contact information, further implying that an announcement is on the horizon.</p>
<p>Shortly after Christmas on December 27, Styles released a video to his YouTube channel. The almost 9-minute video consists of fans gathering for one of his shows and display their excitement for what is to come. The video is captioned, ‘Forever, Forever’ with no description or additional information. The video ends with the same heartfelt message, ‘We Belong Together’. How cryptic!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Harry-Styles.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-13661" src="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Harry-Styles-600x600.jpg" alt="Harry Styles" width="600" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>Styles’ last release was ‘<em>Harry’s House</em>’, the record came out in May of 2022 and was a global smash hit. The record was a huge commercial and critical success for Styles becoming the best-selling album of 2022 and holding host to the best-selling single of 2022, ‘As It Was’. The album broke sale records, dominated the charts and received six grammy nominations. Styles fans both new and old lapped up all the new content whilst Styles embarked on a global tour.</p>
<p>‘Love On Tour’ occurred from September 2021 all the way through to July 2023, the tour was a celebration of his first studio album, <em>‘Fine Line</em>’ and his second studio album, ‘<em>Harry’s House’.</em>  The tour was a smash hit and you undoubtedly have friends or family members that attended the glorious event.</p>
<p>This era is all the more exciting due to its mystery. Fans are left scrambling for clues and new content rather than being spoon fed tour announcements and album releases. It feels all the more personal and heartfelt.</p>
<p>For the foreseeable, countless individuals are left eagerly refreshing their timelines and checking emailed for a glimmer of Styles’ return. Fans are weighing out the possibilities of either a new album or tour, either way we will be glad to have Styles back nonetheless, making waves within the music world.</p>
<p>One thing is in certainty, when Styles returns the world will be awaiting with open arms.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Harry Styles surprised fans over the weekend by releasing a video of the instrumental piano ballad he played at the last night of his <em>Love On Tour</em> back in 2023. The singer played his final show of the tour (in support of his third solo album &#8216;<em>Harry&#8217;s House&#8217;</em> in 2022) in the RCF Arena in Northern Italy in July 2023, and played an unknown instrumental alone at the piano to close the show.</p>
<p>On the weekend, the former One Direction star had a countdown on YouTube to a new clip, before posting the 10-minute video, titled <em>Forever, Forever. </em>In the video, groups of fans are seen preparing for the show outside the arena, before transitioning to footage of Harry Styles sitting at the piano playing the instrumental on stage alone. As the instrumental finishes, the words &#8216;We belong together&#8217; come up on the screen.</p>
<p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EaMtVAqJzOs?si=76ZlHDStQKQeGYbP" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p>As of now, it is not known if the video is a one-off post or if it is the start of a new release cycle, including new music and live shows, but Styles has not released any new music since 2022, when his album &#8216;<em>Harry&#8217;s House</em>&#8216; won the Grammy for Album Of The Year. Fans are now speculating online that he will release new music and do live shows next year.</p>
<p>Harry Styles took a break from music after his final show in 2023, which mainly came due to needing to rest. After years of nonstop touring, recording and acting, Harry stepped back partly because of the burnout that came with the fame.  While he hasn&#8217;t given one specific reason for this current break, fans and observers suggest he&#8217;s been focusing on slowing down, enjoying life off-camera, and prioritising mental health.</p>
<p>Earlier in his career, Harry explained that he and One Direction wanted to take a break because they were exhausted and didn&#8217;t want to wear out themselves or their fans, showing that rest has been a priority for him.</p>
<p>Harry has been spending a lot og his time recently running marathons, including completing one in Berlin in September in under three hours under the moniker Sted Sarandos, following from his previous run at the Tokyo Marathon, which he completed in just over three hours. In May, he was spotted among the crowd in the Vatican City to witness the election of the new Pop, and in July, he launced a new range of sex toys for his brand Pleasing.</p>

src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js" async=""></script></a> The initiative comes amid growing concerns over cuts to arts funding and the diminishing role of music in the national curriculum. <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/subject-report-series-music/striking-the-right-note-the-music-subject-report?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank">Reports have shown that music education in state schools has suffered significantly over the past decade</a>, particularly in economically disadvantaged areas. The open letter argues that without proper funding, music will become an exclusive privilege for wealthier students, further deepening inequalities in the industry.</p>
<p>Sheeran, who himself benefited from state-funded programmes in his youth, stressed the importance of ensuring that young people, regardless of background, have the chance to pursue a career in music. In his <a href="https://www.instagram.com/teddysphotos/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> post, the musician said: &#8220;As a young music student and aspiring artist, I benefited from opportunities in and out of school to learn &amp; grow. Unfortunately, after decades of defunding and de-prioritising, music is no longer a right for all children &#8211; it’s a luxury for only a few.&#8221;</p>
<p>Other notable artists who have co-signed the letter include <a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/paloma-faith-teases-new-album/" target="_blank">Paloma Faith</a>, <a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/elton-john-and-annie-lennox-call-for-boris-johnson-to-help-in-the-fight-against-aids-in-open-letter/" target="_blank">Annie Lennox</a>, and <a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/myles-smith-reveals-dream-collaborations-and-his-songwriting-secret/" target="_blank">Myles Smith</a>, who also commented on Sheeran&#8217;s post stating: &#8220;Governments need to realise the importance of music not only as a cultural export and financial hub, but as the foundation and key feature of our society and community. Growing up in working-class Luton, access to music wasn’t just a way out &#8211; it was a way of living. It gave me purpose, belonging, and a voice. That’s why investing in music matters. It changes lives. It changed mine.&#8221;<iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RJ7tSqfLl2Y?si=_k11oY1wr7cAk3Bx" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> <span class="relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem]">In January 2025, <a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/ed-sheeran-creates-foundation-to-support-music-education/" target="_blank">Sheeran has established the Ed Sheeran Foundation</a>, aiming to empower children across the UK with meaningful music education.</span> T<span class="relative -mx-px my-[-0.2rem] rounded px-px py-[0.2rem]">he foundation seeks to address the decline in music education within state schools by providing support and advocating for equal access to high-quality music programs.</span> ​</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Harry Styles is reportedly in talks to host a 35-night residency at Las Vegas’ Sphere, according to an <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/06/business/harry-styles-nearing-deal-for-35-show-residency-at-james-dolans-las-vegas-sphere-sources/" target="_blank">exclusive report published by the </a></span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/06/business/harry-styles-nearing-deal-for-35-show-residency-at-james-dolans-las-vegas-sphere-sources/" target="_blank">New York Post</a>. </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">If it comes to fruition, the ‘Watermelon Sugar’ singer would be the most current artist to take the stage at the 20,000-capacity venue, following acts such as U2, the Eagles, and Dead &amp; Company. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The technological marvel was opened in 2023 with a <a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/u2-announce-an-out-of-this-world-experience-at-the-new-sphere-las-vegas/" target="_blank">40-night residency by Irish rock band U2</a>, and so far has catered mainly to an older demographic. The venue will host country musician Kenny Chesney in May and June, followed by The Backstreet Boys until August, who are the last confirmed act to play the Las Vegas arena. Noting the need for more contemporary artists, a source <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/06/business/harry-styles-nearing-deal-for-35-show-residency-at-james-dolans-las-vegas-sphere-sources/" target="_blank">told the </a></span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://nypost.com/2025/03/06/business/harry-styles-nearing-deal-for-35-show-residency-at-james-dolans-las-vegas-sphere-sources/" target="_blank">New York Post</a>, </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;For the Sphere to continue to be on everyone’s radar, they need to book some real &#8216;live&#8217; artists like Styles.&#8221;</span></p>

This has further fuelled the rumours, as Madison Square Garden’s parent company also owns the Las Vegas Sphere. </span></p>

<p><script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script>  Comparing ticket prices for previous shows at the venue to a potential Styles run is difficult considering the vastly different audience he would bring. Discussing potential pricing for the Styles show, one X user revealed that they had paid upwards of $200 for a general admission ticket to the upcoming Backstreet Boys shows. Given that <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6KImCVD70vtIoJWnq6nGn3?si=2H-1X-DKQpOsUtsMZkRmuQ" target="_blank">the 31-year-old has more than double</a> the Backstreet Boys’ monthly listeners, ticket prices could well be expected to exceed that.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The rumours have sent fans delirious, speculating on the slightest of details, though also weary of getting over-excited given the lack of confirmation. Fans on the r/HarryStyles subreddit considered whether the residency could be part of a wider tour, possibly supporting a new album. His three albums were all released roughly two and a half years apart, and following this pattern, a new album could be announced before any possible shows.</span> <strong><strong><br />
