Things to do in Las Vegas, Nevada (NV): The Best Concerts & Shows

December 9, 2021 Yuk Petri

Whether you’re a high roller or a low-key lounger, Las Vegas has something to suit your vacation taste. Sample fare from top chefs and cornucopian buffets, try your luck at one of the world’s premier casinos, or take in a spectacular show. Just wandering the Strip is enough to get your heart pumping. Once you’ve had enough of the razzle-dazzle, wave hello to the toothy sea life at the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef, hike Red Rock Canyon, or visit the Neon Museum, where old signs take on new life.

Enjoyed a fun evening at the Sands Showroom listening to wonderful Christmas music, MoTown music and fun entertainment. Small enough venue that every seat is great. The musicians in the band were excellent and the vocals a real pleasure. Highly recommend any of their shows.

My wife and I went to see the show for our wedding anniversary, The show prices were a little pricey but after seeing the show, I can say it was so worth it. There is something for everyone. I dramatic story line, acrobatics, synchronized swimming, high diving, Awesome costumes, and a fantastic fantasy story. there was so much going on sometimes I didn't know where to look. It was probably the best show I've seen ever. I would go again, as it was a mesmerizing and I may have missed something.

The staff are so well trained. The box office receptionists and the ushers are as good as you will find anywhere. Every seat has a great view, it just depends on how close you want to be. Sound and acoustics are excellent, whether it is Hall and Oates, Rod Stewart or The Who, they all sounded amazing.

KA by Cirque du Soleil

Reviewed By Teosnani - Superior, United States

This was my first time seeing Cirque de Soleil, and I was very excited after seeing a small excerpt on Dancing with the Stars. This show was amazing! From the dancing, the acrobatics, the martial arts, and by far my favorite (because I was one) the baton twirling), I stayed entertained! I don't want to give too much away, I know some reviews do, but the production is outstanding, the show is very entertaining, and it definitely left me wanting more Cirque.

We thought this was going to be one of those Ho-hum "lounge lizard" magicians. OH BOY, WERE WE WRONG!! Mac King is an incredibly talented magician with a comedic patter and routine that will delight the entire family. (Oh Yes- Bring the Kids!!) The magic he performs is unexplainable and jaw-dropping. It was... simply the Best.

Lots of fun. My husband and I couldn't stop laughing. Carrot Top's self-deprecating and prop-heavy humor is offbeat, endearing and hilarious. And topical. (Think Harvey Weinstein and Tom Brady.) Highly recommended!

The Big Elvis show is great! You can sit in the bar area without having to purchase anything. I’m sure they’d prefer you drink but there’s no pressure. The show is a great time, an hour of good, free entertainment and chance to rest your feet from all the walking!

Every seat is good. We saw Billy Idol and were really happy sitting in the first balcony. The sound system was well balanced; the lighting really popped. This theater is small enough that you can see the performers pretty well, and there's plenty to do and places to eat at the Palms before /after the show.
