Jennifer Lopez’s Las Vegas residency is headed to television this Thanksgiving. CBS and Paramount+ will air a concert film of her sold-out shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, bringing the performance to a national audience. The film, titled The J-Lo Show: Live in Las Vegas, will be broadcast on Thursday, November 26, from 8 to 10 p.m. ET/PT. Paramount+ will also offer an extended version for streaming.
According to an official announcement from CBS and Paramount, the two-hour concert film will premiere on the CBS Television Network and stream live for Paramount+ Premium subscribers. Essential tier users will have access to an on-demand version. The film captures Lopez’s Las Vegas residency, which ran for 12 sold-out shows from New Year’s Eve week 2025 through March 28. The residency drew fans from around the world and quickly became one of the most sought-after tickets on the Strip.
Thanksgiving night premiere
The broadcast is scheduled for Thanksgiving evening, reflecting Lopez’s family tradition of watching movie musicals during the holiday. This year, her Las Vegas finale will be featured as a high-energy option for viewers looking for something different from typical holiday programming. UPI has confirmed the special will air on November 26 at 8:00 p.m. EST, with the extended version available only on Paramount+.
The concert film follows Lopez’s career from her Bronx beginnings to international fame, mixing her best-known songs with personal stories. The production includes a full orchestra, vocal ensemble, and 16 dancers, moving between pop hits, Broadway numbers, and tributes to classic Las Vegas performers.
Inside the residency production
The show is divided into four acts: “I’ll See You in My Dreams,” “Tales from Manhattan,” “Kiss Kiss, Kill Kill,” and “Shall We Dance.” The setlist covers more than twenty years of Lopez’s music, with new versions of songs like “Waiting for Tonight,” “Jenny from the Block,” “Love Don’t Cost a Thing,” “Get Right,” “On the Floor,” and “Let’s Get Loud.” The concert also features recent pop tracks and Broadway standards, showing Lopez’s range as a performer.
Lopez’s residency joins a growing list of major Las Vegas shows by top artists, part of a trend where performers take on multi-night runs at the city’s biggest venues. As reported earlier, Las Vegas continues to attract artists from many genres, reinforcing its reputation as a center for live entertainment.
What viewers should know
The concert will air on CBS and stream on Paramount+, with the extended version exclusive to the streaming platform. The TV broadcast is set for two hours, while the longer cut—featuring extra performances and behind-the-scenes footage—is only for Paramount+ subscribers. This highlights the difference between the broadcast and streaming experiences.
For Las Vegas, the national broadcast of The J-Lo Show: Live in Las Vegas puts a spotlight on the city’s role as a destination for headline residencies and large-scale productions. Turning a Strip residency into a national TV event shows the reach of Las Vegas entertainment and sets a new standard for future shows aiming for both local and national audiences.
