==Critical reception==

Critics compared The Celebration of Mimi favorably to Carey's previous residencies. ''[[Las Vegas Review-Journal]]'' columnist [[John Katsilometes]] called it "a more inspired variation of the Caesars show, thoughtful and creative with its autobiographical through-line".<ref name="Katsilometes">{{Cite news|last=Katsilometes|first=John|author-link=John Katsilometes|date=April 14, 2024|title=Reinvigorated Carey Returns 'Mimi' to Las Vegas Strip|url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/entertainment/entertainment-columns/kats/reinvigorated-carey-returns-mimi-to-las-vegas-strip-3033950/|url-access=limited|newspaper=[[Las Vegas Review-Journal]]|access-date=April 15, 2024}}</ref> According to Tim Chan of ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'', "while Carey has performed in Vegas before, she has never sounded or looked better."<ref name="Chan">{{Cite news|last=Chan|first=Tim|date=April 15, 2024|title=Mariah Carey's Vegas Residency Is a Triumphant Celebration of Mimi|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/reviews/mariah-carey-celebration-of-mimi-vegas-residency-review-setlist-1235656318/|magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]|access-date=April 15, 2024}}</ref> ''[[People]]''{{'}}s Mark Gray and Jason Sheeler said "her latest spectacular show was a definite crowd pleaser".<ref name="Gray">{{Cite news|last1=Gray|first1=Mark|last2=Sheeler|first2=Jason|date=April 13, 2024|title=Mariah Carey Kicks Off Spectacular New Las Vegas Residency: 'I'm Feeling Good'|url=https://people.com/mariah-carey-kicks-off-spectacular-new-las-vegas-residency-im-feeling-good-8631180|magazine=[[People (magazine)|People]]|access-date=April 15, 2024}}</ref>
