The new dates of Clarkson’s Studio Sessions residency are Aug. 7, 8, 14 and 15. She also has previously announced shows scheduled for this month, July and August.
Tickets for the new shows first become available through a Citi presale from Tuesday, Nov. 4 at 10 a.m. PT through Thursday, Nov. 6 at 10 p.m. PT. Then, a fan club presale launches Wednesday, Nov. 5 at 10 a.m. PT, followed by another presale for Caesars Rewards members, Live Nation and Ticketmaster customers starting Thursday, Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. PT.
All presales will end Thursday, Nov. 6 at 10 p.m. PT., and the general on-sale kicks off Friday, Nov. 7 at 10 a.m. PT.
On Aug. 6, Clarkson announced she was postponing her Las Vegas residency to spend time with their children, River, 11, and Remington, 9, and announced her late ex-husband Brandon Blackstock was ill. Blackstock died one day later at age 48 of cancer.
“Unfortunately, I need to postpone the remainder of the August Studio Session dates in Las Vegas,” wrote the Kelly Clarkson Show host in a statement at the time.
She added, “While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children’s father has been ill and at this moment, I need to be fully present for them. I am sincerely sorry to everyone who bought tickets to the shows and I so appreciate your grace, kindness and understanding.”

A rep for Blackstock’s family told PEOPLE in a statement on Aug. 7, “It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away.”
“Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years. He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family,” continued the statement. “We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family’s privacy during this very difficult time.”
Clarkson was married to Blackstock for seven years before they split in June 2020. She filed for divorce from the music manager in 2020 and it was finalized two years later.
