Tickets on sale Friday

In a career spanning almost 50 years, Engelbert Humperdinck has generated sales in excess of 140 million records, including 64 gold albums and 23 platinum, four GRAMMY™ nominations, a Golden Globe Award™ and stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Las Vegas Walk of Fame. He has performed for the Queen four times and many heads of state. Now, he’ll kick off the Eldorado Great Italian Festival by performing live at the Silver Legacy Resort Casino at THE ROW on Friday, Oct. 11.

Engelbert has recorded everything from the most romantic ballads to movie theme songs, disco, rock and even gospel. His unique voice has charmed millions of fans around the globe. However, it’s not just the voice, but the man himself, with his endearing sense of humor and self-deprecating jokes.

He exploded onto the music scene in the ‘60s with The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. The shy handsome boy catapulted almost instantly to world icon. His first single in the charts was “Release Me,” which went into the Guinness Book of Records for achieving 56 consecutive weeks on the charts. It was number one in 11 countries and was re-released after being used for a UK national television commercial for John Smith’s beer.

Engelbert’s music has transcended time and his voice still continues to reach out to people now, serving to transport and inspire, to embrace and to provoke feelings and emotions; ingredients that are no doubt the essence of his long-lasting success.

Tickets will go on sale Friday, June 21 starting at $49.50 and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com or by calling 775-325-7401.
