Hi Martin ,

To be honest, I've never been to Las Vegas. But I've been to other places, among which: Atlantic City.
AC also has a "Strip" and one thing more than Vegas: A beach, a nice one.

Since nobody wrote anything here, I thought I could start, even with the wrong City, but I'll wait for your green light to do so.

It's been a long time since I have been to Vegas. The one thing I remember is the show "Thunder from Down Under", not sure if it is still on, but ladies if you get a chance....teehee.

Too little muscle mass for my taste. But they still seem to prance around on stage.

I don't know if I will ever be in Las Vegas, but it would be really interesting.
I'd like to know also about hotels.

I spent only 24 hours in Las Vegas, I was on a layover from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles, I only visited one Flamingo Casino, what I liked most was a breakfast that I ended up attending, I ate more than I should have, so I didn't have to eat all day until I got back to the airport, in addition to the disappointment of losing what I had won at roulette

Last December, I spent four days in Las Vegas, and it turned out to be an unforgettable trip packed with shows, music, and great food.

One of the highlights was The Sphere, where I attended an electronic music concert by Anyma. The visuals were absolutely mind-blowing—probably some of the most immersive and futuristic concert effects I’ve ever seen.

I also went to the David Blaine show at the Wynn, and if you’re into magic, illusions, and jaw-dropping stunts, this one is a must-see. His style is very different—raw, intense, and super engaging.

Another dream of mine came true when I finally got to see David Copperfield live at the MGM. I had been a fan since childhood, so sitting there in the audience felt surreal. The show was full of impressive tricks, clever illusions, and plenty of audience interaction that added a fun, lighthearted twist.

For something different, I also caught the Michael Jackson Cirque du Soleil show at the MGM. It’s basically a spectacular musical tribute packed with dance, acrobatics, and MJ’s greatest hits. A real celebration of his music that pulls you in from the first minute.

And of course, no Vegas trip is complete without great food. I stopped by Gordon Ramsay Burger, which definitely lived up to the hype—delicious burgers with bold flavors. Just keep in mind the place is very popular, so expect long lines and plan your visit ahead.

Hi Marshmalo.

If you follow this thread, you will see more about Vegas, hotels, etc. Where to stay to eat, stay in Vegas.

I have stayed at the Rio, which has recently been renovated. Loved the pool area.

Loved it - trying to get back next year, celebrate a big birthday there on the same day as the World Cup final. Watching England win would be good.

I have seen David Copperfield there too and it was very good. I am not normally a fan of magic shows because knowing it not real just spoils it for me lol.

Another fan of Gordon Ramsey Burgers - they are delicious! Their milkshakes are very good too but it is hard to have both in one meal.

I haven't seen an concerts at the Sphere but loved their Postcard from Earth show!

By the time I ever get to Vegas the ones that I might have wanted to see (Barry Manilow, Siegfried & Roy, David Copperfied) are probably all dead and buried.

I hope to use this forum to find friends and go on a trip to the USA, to the state of Los Vegas, for example, where some pretty big poker tournaments and casinos in general are held.

I've heard that shows like Cirque du Soleil are punctual, which makes the show even more spectacular. I say this because here in my country, nothing happens at the scheduled time. I think it's cultural, because most people ALWAYS arrive late, which causes some discontent and consequently, making the presentations also start later.

Hi folks,

i was in Vegas 8 years ago and it was really nice, i just spent one night there because we had a fixed roadtrip and next day we had to leave, so i was not able to play a lot but i spent some money on black jack @ the bellagio casino. I would also recommend to go there to see the water fountain show, it is awesome and you can relax a bit from the big trouble on the strip ;-)
