Jennifer Lopez is bringing the energy of Las Vegas into homes across the country this Thanksgiving.
The superstar’s concert film, THE JLO SHOW: Live in Las Vegas, will premiere Thursday, Nov. 26, from 8 to 10 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. The special will also stream on Paramount+, where viewers can find an extended version with additional footage from the production.
The televised event captures Lopez’s sold-out Las Vegas residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, offering fans who could not attend in person a chance to experience the large-scale show from home.
A career-spanning production
Rather than presenting a straightforward greatest-hits concert, THE JLO SHOW is structured as a theatrical journey through Lopez’s life, artistic influences and career. The production draws on her early love of musicals, including West Side Story, while connecting those childhood inspirations to her rise from the Bronx to international pop stardom.
The show is divided into four acts:
“I’ll See You in My Dreams”
“Tales from Manhattan”
“Kiss Kiss, Kill Kill”
“Shall We Dance”
That format allows Lopez to combine music, choreography and personal storytelling in a performance designed to feel more like a pop musical than a conventional arena concert.
Hits, dancers and Vegas-scale staging
Fans can expect performances of Lopez favorites including “Waiting for Tonight,” “Jenny from the Block,” “Love Don’t Cost a Thing,” “Get Right,” “On the Floor” and “Let’s Get Loud.” The residency also incorporates contemporary pop selections, Broadway material and nods to legendary Las Vegas entertainers.
The staging is appropriately extravagant: Lopez is backed by a full orchestra, a vocal ensemble and 16 dancers. The combination of live musicians, choreography and elaborate production gives the special the kind of spectacle typically reserved for a Vegas showroom.
From a sold-out residency to TV
Lopez launched the limited engagement at Caesars Palace during New Year’s Eve week in 2025. The residency ran for 12 sold-out performances before closing on March 28.
In a previous interview with People, Lopez said her goal was to make audiences “sing and dance and have a good time,” an approach that appears to shape the tone of the concert film.
For longtime fans, the Thanksgiving broadcast offers a chance to revisit the songs that defined different eras of Lopez’s career. For viewers who missed the original Vegas run, it is an opportunity to see one of her most ambitious concert productions without leaving the couch.
THE JLO SHOW: Live in Las Vegas airs Thanksgiving night, Nov. 26, on CBS and will be available to stream on Paramount+.
