LAS VEGAS (June 9, 2026) – Rio Hotel & Casino continues one of the most historic partnerships in Las Vegas with legendary magic and comedy duo Penn & Teller, performing now for the next three years. The duo announced the extension during an appearance last night on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, which ensures that one of Las Vegas’ most iconic live performances remains a cornerstone of the resort’s award-winning offerings.
For more than 25 years since opening in 2001, Penn & Teller have captivated audiences at Rio with their signature blend of mind-bending magic, witty showmanship and edgy comedy. The Emmy Award-winning duo holds the well-deserved distinction of being the longest-running headliners in Las Vegas history and have been known as the “Bad Boys of Magic” for more than five decades.
“Penn & Teller are synonymous with Las Vegas entertainment, and we are proud to continue our partnership with them for the next three years,” said Rod Turlan, President and General Manager of Rio Hotel & Casino. “Their unparalleled ability to evolve their show and dazzle new audiences while consistently delivering the ‘wow’ factor for which they’re known is why they remain an integral part of Rio’s future.”
This announcement reinforces Rio’s commitment to delivering world-class entertainment as the resort continues its ongoing transformation and investment in the overall guest experience.
“The Rio has been our home base for more than two decades and we’re thrilled to continue entertaining audiences here weekly,” said Penn & Teller, jointly. “We’re grateful to our incredible fans from around the world who continue to make this show possible and we look forward to welcoming many more over the next three years.”
