The state-of-the-art Las Vegas concert hall The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, which was built for Celine Dion's three year Vegas residency, will play host to some new, high-profile guests.
Gloria Estefan will play seven shows 10-19 Oct. Tim McGraw is due to play 18-19 Jul, and Mariah Carey on 26 Jul. According to Billboard Elton John is in negotiations for a $54m three-year deal that would start in 2004.
John Meglen, co-president of Concerts West, and promoters for the Colosseum said: "We always intended for other artists to play this venue. There are 12 weeks a year when Celine is not playing."
Despite pre-show reports of poor ticket sales, Dion has just completed 65 sell outs at the 4,100-seater venue which grossed a reported $36m. Celine will now take a month off before returning on 6 Aug.
