When you check out a show, make sure to see VEGAS! THE SHOW at the Saxe Theater! VEGAS! THE SHOW recreates the greatest moments in Vegas’ history. It’s the story of the most influential and exciting entertainers who made Vegas… Vegas! Critics say VEGAS! THE SHOW is like all of the shows on the Strip rolled into one. From vintage Vegas icons like The Rat Pack and Elvis to today’s hottest performers…this award-winning cast, big band orchestra and scores of beautiful showgirls make VEGAS! THE SHOW the biggest stage production on the Strip in almost 20 years. Now in the new Saxe Theater inside Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort. Nightly 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM, DARK THURSDAY.
Go to the M&M store (5 floors of super cool stuff), indoor arcades for the kids, try and walk the entire strip, watch the pirate show at Treasure Island, walk through the shopping area of Ceasar’s Palace (full for kids too- lots of moving and talking statues) and shop on Freemont Street.
There really is so much to do in Las Vegas besides gambling and there’s more to Las Vegas then just the strip. During my most recent visit I used a site called http://www.oneeventguide.com that really helped me find things to do that my family and I could enjoy. We spent a day off the strip doing a few of the events we found on here!
You forgot to mention that that Las Vegas is home to the SunBuggy Vegas Mini Baja Chase – an amazing dune buggy off road experience that is known for being – “the most fun possible on 4 wheels!”
