BLACKPINK’s Lisa just made K-pop history. On March 30, 2026, the Thai superstar announced her first-ever Las Vegas residency, titled Viva La Lisa, securing her place as the first K-pop artist to stage a solo residency in Las Vegas. The announcement dropped on the same day she shared her 29th birthday beach party photos, making it one of the biggest days of her career so far.

When and Where Is Viva La Lisa?

Lisa will perform at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, one of the most iconic concert venues in the world. The residency spans two weekends in November 2026, across four nights:

Why Is This a Historic Moment for K-Pop?

The Colosseum at Caesars Palace is the same venue that has hosted legendary residencies from Adele and Jennifer Lopez, among others. Lisa now joins that lineage as the first K-pop artist to headline the space for a solo residency.

The announcement follows a remarkable run for Lisa personally. Her debut solo album Alter Ego, released on February 28, 2025, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart, making her the second BLACKPINK member to land a solo top-10 album on that chart after ROSÉ. Lisa also performed Alter Ego at Coachella 2025, marking her solo debut at the festival alongside fellow BLACKPINK member Jennie.

What Else Has Lisa Been Working On?

Lisa has had an exceptionally busy stretch heading into this announcement. Here is a breakdown of her key milestones:

Beyond music, Lisa is also the subject of an upcoming documentary from Sony Music Vision, directed by Sue Kim, who previously helmed A24’s award-winning documentary The Last of the Sea Women. The film follows one year in Lisa’s life as she stepped away from BLACKPINK activities to focus on her solo career.

What About Lisa’s Film Career?

Lisa is also set to make her first major feature film debut in the Netflix action thriller Tygo. The film stars Don Lee (The Roundup franchise, Eternals, Train to Busan) and Lee Jin-Uk (Squid Game, Sweet Home). Lisa has described the project as a dream role, noting that starring in an action film has always been one of her goals. A release date has not yet been announced.


With Viva La Lisa confirmed for November 2026, a documentary on the way, and a Netflix film debut still ahead, Lisa is entering one of the most defining chapters of her career. You can register for the presale at Ticketmaster.com starting April 1, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. PT.
