Adele performs at Messe München on August 2, 2024 in Munich, Germany.
Adele Saturday concluded her Munich residency with a 10th show in the German city, and announced she would be taking a long break from music after her Weekends With Adele Shows in Las Vegas residency ends.
Said the 36-year-old singer in a TikTok clip from one of her performances in Munich, Germany: “I have 10 shows to do, but after that I will not see you for an incredibly long time, and I will hold you dear in my heart.
“I just need a rest. I have spent the last seven years building a new life for myself and I want to live it now. I want to live my life that I’ve been building and I will miss you terribly”.
The singer added that she intended for the Munich residency to be the last shows of the 30 era, but those plans changed when she rescheduled her postponed Las Vegas dates for the fall.
Added she: “But after that, I will not see you for an incredibly long time. And I will hold you dear in my heart for that whole length of my break”.
In a radio interview in July, Adele first revealed that she would step away from music to focus on family and other “creative things” after her residencies ended; Adele’s Las Vegas residency launched at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in November 2022, with that run spanning 100 shows by the time it ends this November.
Offered she last month: “I don’t have any plans for new music, at all. I want a big break after this and I think I want to do other creative things, just for a little while”.
Earlier this year, Adele acknowledged the limitations her fans face when their only option to see her live is to catch a flight to Vegas or Munich.
Said Adele to one audience in January: “I just don’t think I’m gonna write an album for quite some time, but next time I do, I’ll come to wherever it is you live”..
