“To commemorate the ending of href="https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/adeles-las-vegas-residency-why-is-the-grammy-winner-taking-time-off/OM6VNCDIXRHGVK6L2DVC4DQN6Y/" target="_self">my residency in Las Vegas, I’m making a limited edition vinyl box set featuring the entire live setlist, a photo book, and even confetti from the show,” the singer wrote alongside an animation showing off the colourful box that features a grand piano on the front and opens up to reveal some spectacular photos of the show, as well as a full-colour 56-page book and three vinyl LPs.
“Las Vegas you’ve been so good to me,” she wrote. “This residency went on to mirror what 30 was about – lost and broken to healed and thriving! Seems so fitting in the end."
Fans have taken to social media to lash out at the star, with many labelling the release a “cash grab” that’s “taking advantage” of fans.
“As if the tickets to the show weren’t exorbitant enough. A blatant cash grab is bad form for your fandom,” ranted one.
“This is the greed they were talking about in the Bible,” complained another.

A third commented: “Hey, so $350 is actually insane,” with another agreeing, adding: “What are you, doing this is crazy? Beyond selfish charging that!”
When announcing the final dates of her Vegas residency, Adele penned a heartfelt note about what the Sin City shows have meant to her.
“This residency, these shows have changed my life,” she wrote on X. “I desperately needed to fall back in love with performing live again, and I have. I needed to reconnect with my songs and remember what they mean to me, and I have!”
She went on, “Being onstage over the last year so up close and personal with an audience again after all these years has been a truly extraordinary restorative experience that I’ll never forget. All the hilarious, soulful, wild and heartbreaking interactions we’ve had are banked in my mind for life.”
