New York-New York stands out on the Strip for its unique blend of excitement and fun. Among its many attractions, Mad Apple by Cirque du Soleil is a must-see—an electrifying show combining acrobatics, live music, comedy, and New York attitude that keeps you engaged from start to finish. For thrill seekers, the Big Apple Coaster delivers heart-pounding twists and spectacular views of the Strip, making it a perfect adventure for guests of all ages. And for those who enjoy classic entertainment, the Big Apple Arcade offers a nostalgic escape with a great variety of games suitable for families and friends alike.
Where is there to go to listen to live music?
When it comes to live music on the Strip, two venues stand out. The Bar at Times Square in New York-New York features a popular dueling piano show that’s funny, unpredictable, and driven by the audience’s requests. For a different vibe, Ole Red at Horseshoe Las Vegas brings the spirit of Nashville to Vegas with Southern-inspired decor and top country acts daily, making it a vibrant spot for country music lovers, like my wife and I!
What spots on the Strip can the whole family enjoy?
Las Vegas offers plenty of family-friendly activities that both kids and adults can enjoy together. The combination of the Big Apple Coaster and Arcade at New York-New York provides a balanced mix of thrills and classic fun. For an action-packed evening, Tournament of Kings at Excalibur delivers an immersive medieval dinner show with jousting and knights that captivate all ages. The Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay is another favorite—an engaging and educational experience walking through underwater tunnels surrounded by fascinating marine life. And just a little off the Strip, Town Square Las Vegas is worth a visit too. It has outdoor shopping, dining, a kids’ park and seasonal family events—perfect for a relaxed afternoon together.
What are some top romantic dinner spots?
For couples seeking an intimate and memorable dining experience, Jasmine at Bellagio offers refined Cantonese cuisine in a tranquil, elegant setting ideal for quiet conversation. Another spectacular choice is Top of the World at The STRAT, where you dine 800 feet above the Strip with revolving panoramic views and an upscale menu perfect for special occasions. For a cozy and authentic meal, head to Shang Artisan Noodle, where you can watch hand-pulled noodles being made. It’s a charming spot away from the crowds.
What are three of your most-suggested shows to see and why?
Among the top entertainment choices, Mad Apple by Cirque du Soleil breaks the mold with its fast pace and New York nightlife inspiration.
