The show commences with Adele performing a set of ballads. She comes out from a curtain of panels that resemble accordions and the shape of the letter A to perform "Hello", accompanied by just a pianist on the stage. Adele explained the minimalistic opening choice: "I wanted to start this small. And I wanted it to be all about me, obviously. That's why I came on and did 'Hello' with just me."{{cite magazine |last=Atkinson |first=Katie |title=Adele's 9 Funniest One-Liners & Banter at Las Vegas Residency Opening Night |url=https://www.billboard.com/lists/adele-las-vegas-residency-one-liners-jokes/ |magazine=Billboard |access-date=8 November 2023 |date=19 November 2022 |url-status=live |archive-date=5 November 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231105191313/https://www.billboard.com/lists/adele-las-vegas-residency-one-liners-jokes/ }} During the chorus, 180-degree floor-to-ceiling screens are switched on and project four close-up images of her. "Easy on Me" is the second song on the set list, performed during the same set up with the piano.{{cite web |last=Sheckells |first=Melinda |title=Inside Adele's First Las Vegas Residency Concert: Jitters, Apologies and a Shout-Out to The Walking Dead |url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/music-news/adele-las-vegas-residency-colosseum-caesars-palace-1235266008/ |website=The Hollywood Reporter |access-date=8 November 2023 |date=19 November 2022 |url-status=live |archive-date=21 October 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231021013606/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/music-news/adele-las-vegas-residency-colosseum-caesars-palace-1235266008/ }} Adele follows this with the torch ballads "Turning Tables" and "Take It All". During "I Drink Wine", a chandelier made of hundreds of glasses which sparkle with golden light drops into the space where she and her pianist have been performing, and the curtain of panels expands to reveal a band and background singers.

"Water Under the Bridge" is included approximately 30 minutes into the set list. It begins a section of more upbeat songs, before which Adele reminds the audience: "I don't have many uptempos, so if you want to dance, now's the time". She performs "Send My Love (To Your New Lover)" under hot pink lighting, followed by "Oh My God". During "One and Only", Adele is joined by three background vocalists who sing its main vocals while Adele performs its operatic backing vocals under a faint spotlight. She then sings "Don't You Remember" and "Rumour Has It". During "Skyfall", Adele performs with an orchestra of 24 string players, arranged as eight in three rows each and lit from a previously dark part of the stage. "Hometown Glory" and "Love in the Dark" are the next songs on the set list. She briefly vacates the stage to allow for production elements to be set up for the following performances, while a pre-recorded video of her singing "Cry Your Heart Out" is presented on the screen.

The "Set Fire to the Rain" performance incorporates pyrotechnics and a stage-wide waterfall; raindrops fall on the stage and a fire starts burning under a white piano, spreading throughout the stage before covering the piano. Towards the end of the performance, the piano sinks into a small pool of water. Adele sings "When We Were Young" while walking through the audience and asking about their favourite childhood memories, as confetti with Polaroid pictures from her life falls upon them.{{cite web |last=Blanchet |first=Brenton |title=Adele Thanks Fans for 'Coming Back to Me' During Opening Night of 'Perfect' Las Vegas Residency |url=https://people.com/music/adele-thanks-fans-for-coming-back-to-me-during-opening-night-las-vegas-residency/ |website=People |access-date=8 November 2023 |date=19 November 2022 |url-status=live |archive-date=5 November 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231105191313/https://people.com/music/adele-thanks-fans-for-coming-back-to-me-during-opening-night-las-vegas-residency/ }} During "Hold On", the theatre is adorned with glimmering light as numerous lanterns descend from the rafters. While Adele performs "Someone like You" and "Rolling in the Deep", joined by three background vocalists during the latter, the cameras change direction and the audience members are projected on the screens. The show closes with "Love Is a Game", during which she is accompanied by an instrumentation of strings and organ. Adele performs on the pastel-coloured stage, as heart-shaped confetti falls and inspirational messages are displayed, before disappearing into the confetti in a vanishing act.

Some critics commented on Adele's vocal performance and look. Atkinson wrote that her "powerful and nimble vocals" which form the "true centerpiece" of all Adele performances sounded ready to carry the residency to completion. On a similar note, Qureshi believed that "at center stage, the real Adele puts finely tuned physicality into every lyric" and she had, unsurprisingly, "never sounded better onstage". McCormick opined "she has range, tone, control, power and the ability to lose herself in the emotion" which makes her succeed. USA Today{{'}}s Melissa Ruggieri thought that "Adele's voice was as impeccable as her sculpted eyebrows and French manicure", and Vogue{{'}}s Christian Allaire believed her look suited Vegas while also maintaining her "glamorous, Old Hollywood style". Melinda Sheckells of The Hollywood Reporter and Zoladz thought she looked and sounded nervous during the first two songs but quickly returned to form in the following performances.

Critics also highlighted individual moments from the show as their favourite ones. In her list of the seven best moments, Atkinson mentioned the introduction of the floor-to-ceiling screens during "Hello", the production of the "Set Fire to the Rain" performance, Adele's walk through the crowd during "When We Were Young", and the confetti showers, among others. Qureshi described Adele singing the backing vocals of "One and Only" as "one of my favorite arrangements in the show". Sheckells cited the "Set Fire to the Rain" and "Hold On" performances as examples of when the show "wowed with even more stage effects". Zoladz described the former's "staging so gloriously over-the-top that it was giving Book of Revelations" but thought the "most emotionally effective part of the night" was during "When We Were Young".
