Jennifer Lopez is bringing the final night of her Las Vegas residency to television this Thanksgiving. The JLO Show: Live in Las Vegas, a concert film recorded at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, is scheduled to air on CBS on Thursday, November 26, at 8 p.m. ET. It will also stream on Paramount+, while an extended version will be available for Paramount+ Premium subscribers. Fans can take a first look in the official teaser from Paramount+.

The show opened during New Year’s Eve week in 2025 and finished on March 28 after 12 sold-out performances. Lopez built the production as a career-spanning journey, moving through four acts with a full orchestra, a vocal ensemble and 16 dancers. Songs such as “Waiting for Tonight,” “Jenny from the Block,” “Love Don’t Cost a Thing,” “Get Right,” “On the Floor” and “Let’s Get Loud” were part of a set designed to revisit different chapters of her pop career.

A Las Vegas Finale for a Wider Audience

A television premiere gives a residency one more life after the theatre lights go down. Las Vegas remains a major destination for artists who want to turn a concert into a full-scale production, not just another date on a tour schedule. Our look at the Las Vegas concert and festival lineup showed how broad the city’s live music calendar can be, from arena shows to long-running residencies.

For performers, a film can preserve the details that audiences at home would otherwise miss: the choreography, the stage design and the way a set builds from one era to another. It also lets a one-night finale reach fans who could not be in the room. That wider reach is part of what makes major live moments travel beyond a venue, whether it is a residency finale or a surprise appearance such as Kylie Minogue joining Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds in Brighton.

What Fans Can Expect

The broadcast is timed for a holiday evening, when concert specials can become a shared watch rather than a clip viewed alone online. Lopez’s set moves between early hits, pop standards and Las Vegas-style showmanship, so the film should offer both nostalgia and the scale people expect from a residency. It is another reminder that touring, television and streaming are now closely connected parts of a music release cycle. The same appetite for an event experience is behind the renewed interest in large tour announcements, including the Pussycat Dolls’ PCD Forever tour plans.

For fans who missed the Colosseum run, Thanksgiving will turn the final night of The JLO Show into a much wider celebration. We will see.
