    That location is normally really, really busy. Pretty sure they open at 9? It used to be that they put the list of shows up 30 mins before opening, so you could go and have a look and make a decision as to whether it's worth waiting - not sure if that's still the case. Or if you aren't planning on buying any tickets your first day in town, wander over to one when it suits and look at the list to see if they have (or had) tickets for the shows you are after available...it does change, but you can get a good idea.

    Some of those you are after have discounts or 2-for-1 tickets in the Las Vegas Advisor book for 2011...so may be worth considering...with the fee for Tix4Tonight, and the waiting in the queue, and the uncertainty, may be worth thinking about paying $37 for the online membership and getting the full coupon book?

    Yep the one at Bills opens at 9, and if they put up a list then we'll def have a look there first, these tips are great.

    Would I be able to pick up the Las Vegas Advisor Book 2011 in Las Vegas?? Or how would I be able to get one of these? This is something new that I've not heard of, I dont think anyway.

    Thanks, Jodi

    Also the tix4 at the Coke bottle isnt far either.

    Another recommendation for Jersey Boys. Get best seats you can afford IMHO.

    P&T buy cheap seats as they move everyone forward anyway to fill the gaps!!! They looked distinctly bored by the whole thing, having done it for how many years now?

    Check https://www.travelzoo.com the US site, not the UK one. We got our P&T tickets there as they were cheapest with the offer at the time. We had front row balcony seats which were fine, but closer would be better.

    Agree with getting the best seats you can afford for JB. The theatre is bigger than many of the others in Vegas so you could end up quite far back otherwise.

    I take it you are getting a taxi to the hotel? If so,pick up the 24/7 Magazine from the taxi and also the Vegas Values coupon book if there is one. There is always a coupon for $2 off the service charge at T4T. I can't remember if the service charge is $5 or $6 per ticket.

    Yes, you can pick it up at their offices in Vegas...easier if you have a car though - a bit behind Rio(ish)...though only open M-F and closed holidays, so may take some days out of the equation for you if you fly out on 31st Dec...they should be open 3rd Jan as it's not a bank holiday in the US.

    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    you can also print the $2 voucher before you go from Tix4Tonight's website...just in case you don't get ahold of one of the free coupon books.

    WE went on the US site afew weeks ago when someone on here posted about it.

    Sorry another question is coming, lol. I hope you all dont mind, and its probably a daft one too, when you get your tickets for a show do you get seat numbers, or do you just get put in a certain section?? We will probably get a taxi there if not then def get a taxi back. How long does P&T and JB last for?

    Thank again! Jodi x

    You get a "voucher" from tix4, for a certain category of seat, and you need to exchange it at the box office for proper tickets. The earlier you exchange, in theory the better seat you get.....we tend to go straight to the box office after tix4.
