The sister duo behind hits like “Potential Breakup Song,” Aly & AJ, will bring their “Places to Run” tour to the Wilson Center on March 20, 2026, at 7:30 p.m.
Evolving from teen pop sensations into acclaimed indie artists, their new music blends Laurel Canyon-inspired rock with personal storytelling. Vanity Fair recently praised the sisters, noting they “continue to break new ground… with every release, they feel more like themselves.”
Audiences can expect a mix of nostalgia and new material from their latest album, Silver Deliverer, featuring popular songs like “What It Feels Like” and “Next To Nothing.”
If comedy and magic is more your thing, Piff the Magic Dragon will perform his “The Clone Tours” show, joined by his new magical companion, Mr. Piffles 2.0, on April 17, 2026, at 7:30 p.m.
Known for his signature dry British wit and dragon costume, Piff rose to fame on America’s Got Talent and Penn & Teller: Fool Us. He is a long-running Las Vegas headliner and holds the record as the first performer to win Best Comedian, Best Magician, and Best Headliner at the Best of Las Vegas Awards.
Piff, who has entertained over half a million guests as a headliner at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino since 2015, now performs with Mr. Piffles 2.0, the successor to his legendary co-star, the late Mr. Piffles, billed as the world’s only magic-performing chihuahua.
The show promises awe-inspiring magic, new tricks, and award-winning comedy.
Tickets for Piff the Magic Dragon will be available online to Wilson Center Members on Dec. 10, at 10 a.m., and for Aly & AJ on Dec. 11, at 12 p.m. Tickets for both shows go on sale online and in person to the general public on Dec. 12, at 10 a.m. Tickets can be purchased here.
