Is it necessary to book a show in Las Vegas before i get there?|155928

I_m traveling to Las Vegas in July of this year and am wondering if it is necessary to book before i go there? Do they sell out?

We were thinking of seeing a comedian, any recommendations on comedians?

Sounds like it would be better for you to wait until you get here. There are so many shows to choose from and many have discount coupons all over the place. Especially the comedy clubs like at Harrahs.

Some comedians with regular shows are

Louie Anderson at the Excalibur
Carrot Top at the Excalibur
George Wallace at the Flamingo
Penn and Teller at the Rio

Also V-the Ultimate Variety Show is at Planet Hollywood not the Tropicana.

Check the shows out on this site.

Well, I waited to buy tickets to see Mystere one time and when I got to TI, they were all sold out. If it is something you are dead set on seeing I would purchase in advance just to be on the safe side.

A friend of mine recommended to me the V Ultimate Variety Show @ the Tropicana. I think Ray Romano _ Brad Garrett will be there a weekend in July....

With millions of people traveling to Las Vegas every year, tickets to some of the more popular shows sell out on a nightly basis. If you wait for your arrival in Las Vegas to secure show tickets, you might not be able to get the tickets you want to the shows that you_ve been dying to see.

Unless you really have your heart set on seeing a particular show, I_d wait. With the economy the way it is, the shows really aren_t selling out. Plus, there are discount tickets booths up and down the strip where you can buy discounted tickets. I almost bought tickets to Penn and Teller before we left. I_m glad we waited since we saved about $50 and the theatre was only 2/3 full.

Depends on the popularity of the show and how crowded the city will be at that time. Some shows sell out fast daily, others are dark on certain days of the week/closed for the day!

www.insidervlv.com is a good website to book shows.

no they have these little booths all along the strip that you could get tickets cheaper at or ask at your hotel.
