Vegas show advice needed - Blu-ray Forum

Brandon · 11-26-2009, 05:50 PM

I'm having a tough time deciding what show to go see in Vegas this NYE and I was hoping somebody can give me some input. My fiance and I are getting married on New Year's Day in Vegas and will be there from the 30th to Jan 2. We want to go see something on NYE with the family, around 7 pm and then all split up after that so people can do whatever they want. Us youngins will go out and party and the moms and grandmas will do their thing.

Here's the thing - we really want to see a Cirque du Soleil show at some point, either on NYE or on Saturday night, our first night alone as husband and wife. Beatles LOVE is at the top of the list but the seats are really expensive for literally like the top row. Unfortunately I've seen every other Cirque show except for Zumanity, which is not family friendly. I'm torn on whether or not to see Mystere again, with awesome front section seats, for about $120 each, or Love in the top row for $140 each. I love Mystere but I keep thinking it's stupid to see something I've already seen...but then I'm like, it sucks to pay so much and be in the top row seats for Love...

We don't have to see Cirque either...if anyone knows of any other good shows we are open. Other choices for us include David Copperfield and Phantom at the Venetian.

Anybody have any advice?? Now that I am actually writing it out I am leaning toward going to the show I haven't seen yet, Love....even though no one else in my group has seen Mystere either...

Sounds like you really want to see Love and personally, it's well worth it. I don't remember tickets being that expensive for it but I was there for my wedding as well so it may have just got lumped in with everything else. I would pay to go see it again.

Don't hesitate to go see Love. One of my favorite Cirque du Soleil show.

The thing with Cirque du Soleil is it's very expensive but it's the one show you are guaranteed to get your money's worth.

If you like the Beatles and you like Cirque du Soleil, it's a no brainer.

Brandon · 11-26-2009, 07:27 PM

Yeah...both you guys are right. Every time I've seen one of their shows, especially "O," within like the first 5 minutes I've thought ok, this was worth it.

Brandon · 11-27-2009, 02:27 PM

Do you guys know of any other good shows to see? If we go see Love we still have one other night to see a show, either alone or with the family. I know there's a ton of shows in Vegas but there's really not that many I am actually interested in...don't want to see any of the singers with residencies there, not interested in many of the magicians... have you guys seen or know anyone who has seen Phantom or David Copperfield?

I saw David Copperfield local and it was a pretty good show. I can't imagine what he does on the Vegas scale. The only other ones I saw there were Penn & Teller and Zumanity.
