“Soul2Soul”
at The Venetian will mark the first time in six years that McGraw and
Hill have performed together in the United States. “Soul2Soul” will
feature an all-new production with innovative lighting and set design
technologies that were synonymous with the “Soul2Soul” concerts. The
Venetian Theater will also be modified to accommodate this new
production. These “Soul2Soul” concerts will include many of the no. 1
hits that have made them, both in their own right, two of the most
significant entertainers of our generation.

“We
are creating a show that will be completely different from what we’ve
done before – and might ever do again,” said Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
“In arenas and stadiums, you’re always faced with the challenge of
finding ways to make people feel closer to the action, no matter where
they might be sitting. Now everyone will be close, so it opens
up all kinds of creative possibilities and we’re looking forward to
exploring those so that we can really give our fans something truly
special.”
