13 Best Shows on the Las Vegas Strip for a Memorable Night
When it comes to entertainment, Las Vegas isn’t just setting the bar – it owns it. The Las Vegas Strip is known as the “Entertainment Capital of the World” and for good reason. The Strip has it all, no matter what your mood — jaw-dropping acrobatics and side-splitting comedy, or something that doesn’t even have a description out there.
If you think Vegas shows are like picking between diamonds, then you’re right, because each show just shines a little brighter. We’ve got 13 resident legends and awe-inspiring productions that will make your night in Sin City one for the books.
“O” by Cirque du Soleil
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when art meets water, then “O” by Cirque du Soleil is your answer. An aquatic masterpiece, performed by synchronized swimmers, and aerialists, and breathtaking images and visuals only Cirque could bring you. The show has dreamlike sequences that take place on a stage that turns into a massive pool — that’s a perennial favorite.
Absinthe
Absinthe is not a show; it’s an experience. This risqué production combines burlesque, acrobatics, and outrageous comedy performed in an intimate vintage style tent. Absinthe is not for the easily offended, its more of a wild, grown-up circus where the wildest, the most insane things can happen.
Blue Man Group
A part comedy, part concert, part performance art, Blue Man Group provides a multi-sensory spectacle set to provide you with something unlike anything else. These performers bring audiences on a colorful, high-energy trip that is family-appropriate but seriously offbeat with their signature blue-painted faces and talent for drumming on everything they can assign fingerprints to.
Magic Mike Live
Magic Mike Live is an electrifying, empowering, and wildly entertaining show inspired by the hit movies that give a new spin on male revues. If you’re a lady (or gent) expect high-energy choreography, sassy performers, and a cheeky nod to the most iconic moments of the film.
Penn & Teller
Want a little bit of mind-bending magic and comedy? Vegas has found itself charmed by Penn & Teller’s wit, along with their unbelievable illusions for decades. Their act can make objects disappear and can debunk tricks with a twist — and it’s every bit as clever as it is entertaining.
David Copperfield
When it comes to magic, there is no one like David Copperfield. An evening of storytelling, magic, and a dash of nostalgia from his show at the MGM Grand, he offers an intimate show. The hallmark of Copperfield’s skill is definitely to be the master of making things disappear out of thin air or levitation.
The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil
Hurray for Fab Four fans! Beatles LOVE is the band’s trademark music taken to the next level with the acrobatics, and visuals we’ve come to expect from Cirque du Soleil. Stunning choreography brings to life incredible Beatles hits, all synched to a huge soundtrack in a psychedelic celebration of the Fab Four.
Jabbawockeez
Well known for their award-winning fusion of hip-hop and dance, this crew comes right to the rafters when it comes to bringing energy – precision moves, signature white masks, and captivating storytelling. Their show at MGM Grand is a must-see for fans of cutting-edge choreography, combining music, lights, and jaw-dropping dance.
Le Rêve – The Dream
Le Rêve – The Dream is an ethereal production at Wynn Las Vegas, that is the closest thing to walking onto a surreal painting. A visual delight and part art and part spectacle that includes aerialists, synchronized swimmers, and a water stage.
Carrot Top
Need a good laugh? For years, audiences at the Luxor have been cracking up at Carrot Top’s prop-heavy comedy show. The wild haired comedian who’s known for being inventive use of everyday items gives a fast-paced routine that is equally as hilarious and unique.
Cirque du Soleil’s KA
Cirque du Soleil at its most epic is KA. This production features a rotating stage full of martial arts choreography and a story of love and conflict all accessible to audiences with a cinematic journey. The stunts and set design are massive to the point that KA is one of the Strip’s most awe-inspiring shows.
RuPaul’s Drag Race Live!
A larger-than-life drag extravaganza is something fans of hit TV shows will love. A celebration of drag culture at its finest, featuring jaw-dropping costumes, powerhouse performances, and all the charismatics, uniquity, nerve, and talent you’d expect.
Shin Lim: Limitless
Shin Lim is a magician and an artist with sleight of hand. His tricks and illusions at The Mirage residency are all delivered with a smooth, almost hypnotic style. Lim’s act will have you second-guessing the laws of physics, and he’s a winner of America’s Got Talent.
