Answer 1

If your budget is unlimited, so are your options. Here are shows I have seen, recommend and what they will cost:

Blueman Group --- must see $75 - $130 a person Venetian

Cirque de Soleil -- see Blueman first $100 - $165 MGM Grand

Stomp out Loud --- FUN $50 - $110 Planet Hollywood

Tournament of Kings --- Dinner show--- lots of fun and by far the best entertainment value in Vegas $60 Excalibre

Elton John will be at Caesars in October $150 - $200


have fun Other must do's The coasters at New York, New York and Circus Circus, Check out the fouintains at Bellagio, Fremont Street Experience, and go up into the StratosTower

Answer 2

I'm not too familiar with the shows that they have in hotels... And I'm not sure if you're asking for any other ideas that you can do while you're in vegas, but here are some ideas! (Since you mentioned it'd be the first time!)


Here's some of best of the free spectacles:
Las Vegas Sign.
The sign is on the southern end of the strip!

Fall Of Atlantis - Caesars Palace
Every Hour (10am-11pm)

Freemont Street Experience - Freemont St.
Every half hour after dark (ends at midnight)

Water Fountains Show - Bellagio
Every 20 minutes.
week days: 3pm - 12am
weekends: 12pm - 12am

Volcanic Eruption - The Mirage
Every 15minutes! (7pm -12am)

Circus Acts - Circus Circus
Every 20minutes! (11am - 12am)

Sirens of T.I - Treasure Island
5:30 pm, 7:00 pm, 8:30 pm and 10:30 pm

Experience a Rainstrom - Miracle Mile in Planet Hollywood
Mon-Thus: storm every hour Fri-Sun: every half hour

Aquarium/Mermaids - Silverton -
The Mermaids perform Thursday-Sunday! Every 30minutes (2pm - 7pm)


Masquerade Show in the Sky - Rio
Everyday - 3, 4, 5, 6:30, 7:30, 8:30, 9:30 pm

Sunset Stampede- Sam's Town
Show times are 2:00 pm, 4:00 pm, 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm daily.



Other that that..
Venetian - has very nice Italian style-setting. Ride the Gondola, it can be very nice.

Caesars Palace - has the place set as if you were in the Ancient-Rome. It also has a good shopping place! And check out their Atlantis show right by the arcades!

Bellagio - The Garden, very nice picture spot on the inside right by the lobby, they change the theme according seasons! Also they have the biggest chocolate fountains in the world!

Mandala Bay - Aquarium that 12,200 gallons of water with tropical fish and sharks too!

Circus Circus - has a whole floor level for arcade games (The Midway) where you can play for cheap and win prizes! And they also have an indoor-theme park, The Adventure Dome, where they have rides and other arcade games! Check out the free Circus Acts also, right above the casino level!

Luxor - has a very nice egyptian theme, and you can take a picture with the Sphinx and the pyramid in the background. (right outside the hotel)

Paris - go up the Eiffel Tower, it's not too high but you can still get a great view of the city.

Strathosphere - go up to the Strathosphere tower and it has a really nice beautiful view from up top. Plus, there are some roller-coaster rides up there too, but if you're afraid of heights, I wouldn't recommend it.

The Mirage - has a very beautiful Tropical Forest, and Coral Reef Aquarium and their infamous White Tigers!

Flamingo Hotel - very nice wildlifes from around the world, they have the garden filled with exotic birds, ucks, penguins, swans, turtles, koi and of course the Chilean flamingos.

MGM - lion habitat!

New York New York - they have a memorial spot for the September 11 remberance right infront of the Statue of the Liberty. Also they have a roller coaster that cost $12 per ride!

Also on the strip, right across NewYork NewYork, there's a big M&M's store. If you're a big M&M's lover, it's the best store for you. Next to it, there's a big Coca-Cola store, and Gameworks somewhere near too!


Okay, I hope that helps! :) Have a fun trip!

It really depends on what kind of music and/or theater you like. Cirque du Soleil has a great show over there right now called LOVE, and it features re-worked Beatles songs and is very lovely. If paying $200 a seat to go hear some Canadian belt out sappy love themes is more your bag, Celine Dion is just finishing up her long Vegas run. If you'd rather have a more traditional Vegas experience, with topless showgirls in feather headdresses and whatnot, go to La Cage or the Folies Bergere. These two shows have been in Vegas since God was a boy, as the saying goes...

Answer 4

I had the BEST TIME on the Barry Manilow exhibit... and I'm now not even a fan! My buddy is a tremendous Barry fan and I took her for her bday. That exhibit rocked... and I pay attention to stuff like KORN and Offspring. Just a be aware when you plan on seeing a Broadway exhibit like Phantom, Avenue Q, and so on. Vegas does NOT Give you the whole exhibit! They reduce it to ninety mins, so say Phantom traditionally takes over two hours to peer, you get an abbreviated variation of the exhibit. Now, if there is not any method so that you can see the travelling organization or pass to the big apple, pass see it in Vegas. Just understand you'll be able to now not get the whole factor.

Answer 5

I agree with "Lane" - see Zumanity at NY NY. Good show and It's definitely for couples. Very Sexy :) I just went last week (on a solo trip) and i was down front.

Also Le Reve at the Wynn is a good show if you can afford O at the Bellagio this is a great second choice. Cirque du Soliel like with water.

Answer 6

Go see O at the Bellagio. It is a Cirque de Soleil show, and there are many now in Vegas, but I can't imagine any as amazing as O.

Answer 7

I like magic acts and you can see some good ones in the afternoon. They are cheaper than the night shows. You can also get last minute tickets for half price on the strip. The V show is very good.

Answer 8

If you like magic, go check out Criss Angel, raunchy humor...Carrot Top, Music...........oh lord.........There is always some great musicians performing. My suggestion is goggle Las Vegas entertainment and see what interests you the most. 20 bucks on red and let it ride. Have a great time , Sweetie!

Answer 9

I can't get enough of the Circ de Solei shows. They have different shows around town and they are all awesome. Of course any major star who is in town will also be good, but don't rule out any show. They know how to entertain.

Answer 10

Too many to name. Get some suggestions from the hotel concierge.**
