Adele is expected to make her long-awaited comeback at a concert in Las Vegas on 10 December.
The 33-year-old singer is reportedly planning to mark the release of her long-awaited fourth album with the gig – her first live event in over four years.
A source told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “Adele’s new album is the most highly-anticipated record of the year. It’s been a long time coming but her label wants it released before Christmas and have their sights set on a performance in Vegas.
“Adele and her management have been in talks with BBC America about broadcasting it around the world.
“This will be one of few performances as part of her promotional tour.
“Obviously with ongoing Covid dramas and concern for safety, it could affect recording, but this is the date scheduled right now.”
The Skyfall hitmaker’s most recent album, 25, was released in 2015 and the follow-up is expected to finally be out in November.
It was recently reported Adele was planning a residency in Las Vegas and liked the idea because it would suit her family situation.
The British songbird – who has nine-year-old son Angelo with ex-husband Simon Konecki – would be able to remain in Los Angeles and be in Las Vegas, which is a 40-minute flight away.
A source said: “Adele has very recently been talking to musicians that she has worked with before to gauge their availability, to see whether they could be in Vegas for the gigs.”
