Planning a Las Vegas trip? If so, then you need to plan your entertainment as well as all of your travel details. After all, there is simply too much to see and do in Vegas to get it all done in one trip, so you will need to pick and choose carefully.
One of the most spectacular shows to catch while you are in Las Vegas is the Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian. Phantom is always best when done in a semi-permanent location, as that chandelier drop is never quite as spectacular on a touring show. This version has never-before-seen special effects that will blow your mind.
“O” at the Belagio is a show you have to experience to truly understand. This Cirque du Soleil show occurs both under and above water, featuring talented acrobats and swimmers performing stunts that you are difficult to imagine, let alone perform. The artistry and athleticism combined in this show make it truly awe-inspiring. Keep in mind that the price is steep, so set aside some extra money in your budget for this one.
If you want to catch a great comedian-slash-impersonator, catch the new Danny Gans show at Encore Las Vegas. This talented performer will act, sing, impersonate, and simply entertain with his comedic antics. You will be surprised at how well a single performer can keep you entertained if you catch his act.
Blue Man Group at the Venetian is another popular show. No one really knows why bald, blue mutes are so entertaining, but entertaining they are. This is a family-oriented show and incorporates dance, music, rhythm, and an interesting type of humor into its entertainment package. Be forewarned, however, that there really is a “Poncho Section” where you could end splattered with all sorts of lovely things by the end of the show.
Finally, what is a trip to Vegas without a little magic show? If a great magician is your cup of tea, then head to Criss Angel Believe at the Luxor. Rest assured, however, that this is not a “little” magic show. This show pulls all of the stops, including players from Cirque du Soleil, plenty of show girls, dazzling lights, and, of course, the magic of Criss Angel himself. This is probably not a show for the kids, but it is a great choice for some adults who wish to be truly amazed and mystified.
If you are wondering what show to see in Vegas, be sure at least one of these five is on your list. However, no matter what you choose to see in Vegas, you will be entertained. It is not the entertainment capital of the world for no reason, after all!
