This week we count down the ten best Las Vegas shows! These are the concerts and comedy performances that people say you must see! We searched the web and scoured Sin City message boards, groups, and reviews to find these shows that people love and recommend the most!
Some of the best performers in the world perform in Las Vegas shows each week. But which shows are right for you? And which shows are people recommending the most? Let’s get right into our list of the top 10 must-see shows in Las Vegas with the comedy of Terry Fator. After winning America’s Got Talent, Fator has been performing in Vegas since 2007. His special, A Very Terry Christmas” is playing at the Strat from now through December 24th, before returning to his regular schedule.
At number nine legendary Rockstar Rod Stewart, who is still thrilling audiences as he approaches 80 years old! Stewart recently extended his 13-year residence at Caesar’s Palace well into 2025, and will return to the Coliseum in March! Number eight on our list takes us to the Luxor for the Blue Man Group! A unique, creative, family friendly performance at a reasonable price! And the hardest you’ll ever laugh without anyone saying a word! Plus, if you enjoy interactive shows be sure you sit down front!
Next, an actual Sin City Legend at number seven: Wayne Newton at the Flamingo! Mr Las Vegas has performed more than 30,000 times over 40 years, and you can still catch his “Up Close and Personal” show through the end of this year, and hopefully into next. The number six spot finds comedian Carrot Top, who just celebrated 19 years in Sin City! Mixing commentary with a trunk full of props, audiences can barely catch their breath between jokes. And this award-winning comic can be found performing at the Luxor.
Now, this would be a good place to pause for a moment, and let you know that the Las Vegas shows on this list and the order that they’re in are not necessarily my opinion. We searched Vegas groups, message boards, and customer reviews to find out what other people were saying were their absolute favorite shows! And with that out of the way we come to number five on our list Mad Apple from Cirque du Soleil. This adult show at New York New York picks up where Zumanity left off… albeit without the more erotic elements. This is an immersive show with a working bar on stage, and guests are invited to grab a drink before the show and during the performance! That alone may be worth the price of admission!
Heading toward the top of our list we come to the fourth spot and find the Eagles at Sphere Las Vegas! What started with just eight performances has now grown to more than 30, with new dates still being added! Fans cannot get enough of this spectacular show, which has currently been extended through April of next year. That leads us to our number three Las Vegas show: Michael Jackson One at Mandalay Bay! The King of Pop lives on in this Cirque production that features your favorite hit songs, fantastic dancers, and high flying acrobats! People cannot stop talking about this Larger than Life production, calling it “phenomenal” and “emotionally charged”.
So ,we have arrived at the top two spots on our must-see Las Vegas shows list, and coming in at number two it’s an oldie but a goodie… it’s another Cirque show…it’s “O”! Playing at the Bellagio since 1998! This is the second oldest Cirque show in Vegas! Their 1,800 seat theater is designed like a European Opera House, but with a 1.5 million gallon pool of water as a stage! Amazing characters, costumes, and music keep fans coming back even after more than 25 years on the Strip!
And finally, at the top of our list we find Absinthe at Caesar’s Palace! Barely beating out “O”and MJ One for the top spot, this adults only show was originally an off-Broadway production before finding its way to Vegas in 2011. Some say it’s raunchy and vulgar, others find it hilarious and unforgettable! The only thing we can tell you for sure is that most people really seem to love it! So, that’s our list. Agree? Disagree? Let us know your thoughts and anything we missed!
