U2 have added an extra 11 dates to their residency at the Sphere venue in Las Vegas.
Having kicked off this residency on September 29, U2 became the first band to perform at the new MSG Sphere in Nevada.
These shows have seen Bono and co perform some deep cuts from their 'Achtung Baby' album, for the first time in 30 years.
The residency which is titled, ‘U2:UV Achtung Baby Live At Sphere’ was initially scheduled to run until December 16, amid speculation that the band were to add extra dates.
