Rock legend Billy Idol is returning to Las Vegas this summer for an exclusive five-night engagement, “Billy Idol: Hot In The City,” at BleauLive Theater inside Fontainebleau Las Vegas.

For almost 50 years, Billy Idol has been one of the definitive faces and voices of rock ’n’ roll, with songs like “Dancing With Myself,” “White Wedding,” Rebel Yell,” “Eyes Without A Face,” “Cradle of Love” and more. Touring consistently around the world, Idol released “Dream Into It” on Dark Horse Records in 2025.

On March 26, Hulu will release the new feature-length documentary film about his life, “Billy Idol Should Be Dead.” Directed by three-time GRAMMY-winner Jonas Åkerlund and produced by Live Nation Studios, the streaming release follows its recent wide theatrical release after debuting at Los Angeles’ TLC Chinese Theatre last month.
