    There is a ticket booth (shaped as a coca-cola bottle) further down the strip just below the MGM which opens in the afternoon that does cheap (?) tickets. There is usually a long queue. We saw Mamma Mia and it was great but only went in a t-shirt and I was bloody freezing with the air-con on so take a cardy/jumper.

    There is also a 1/2 price TKTS booth (Like the one in London) that does half price shows and heavily discounted. They don't have everything but do have a lot of great ones. Also have exhibition tickets, for example the Star Trek exhibition in the Hilton.

    The booth is up by the Riveria and Circus Circus.

    when you are paying for your tickets tell the person you were in the gulf/iraq/afghanistan with the american forces you always get a substantial discount (if they ask to see your id tell them that your position would be jeopordised by carrying any form of id) or just say you are a civilian contractor that works with american forces in whatever warzone is in the news - WORKS evry time!

    The other thing is a lot of the hotels do shows, and they offer free tickets (you can pay for them as well, I was very annoyed to find out them offering free tickets after we'd paid the tour guide for them). If you are wondering around, there is generally someone standing outside the hotel offering tickets. These tickets often have buffet dinner and drinks included. They want you to spend money at their casino - the drunker you are the more money you'll spend. If you are in the casino by you can get free drinks as well, just pretend to be playing the slot machines - pop some change into the machine as the girl walks round asking if you want a drink.

    Do these places do Excursions as well?
  • The best show i ever watched is "O"

    what i normally do is book it in advanced for few months before u actually go there. Depending on what show u r watching, u can always get discount when the show provided from the specific hotel!!

    Please make sure you go and see the 'O' show.

    It is by far the best thing I have ever seen!!

    If you are staying at the Bellagio, you can ask them to get you front row seats which are reserved and not available for everyone
