Penn & Teller canceled January 18–19, 2026 Las Vegas shows after Penn Jillette broke his ankle, underscoring a rare interruption in their 25-year Rio residency. Announced January 18 on Facebook, the Penn & Teller Theater cancellations at the Rio affected an estimated 3,000–6,000 ticket holders. The Penn & Teller shows canceled followed a household fall; Penn Jillette’s broken ankle was confirmed by manager Glenn Alai. Management set cancellations through at least February 5, 2026, while tickets for the following weekend remain on sale. Estimated losses for January 18–19 range from $150,000 to $500,000. Their 50-year partnership and renewed TV season frame stakes as recovery is assessed, including a Fort Myers date.
