Only things I can think of are that pools are closed, its a bit cooler (especially at night), and shows tend to go "dark" post-rodeo finals / pre-christmas build-up

That being said, its about ten years since we've been in December!! :eek:

So really, it depends why you're going shopping, food, booze and gambling will be good pretty much any day of the year

Thanks for the reply! What do you mean by shows going dark? All of them? That's a bit of a concern - we're not going to watch a different show every night, but would like to see one of the Cirque du Soleil shows if possible.

MGM has its own box office - I've always bought my tickets for shows at MGM direct.

Son wanted to see Coldplay who were playing there - two days before the box office had nothing but when we went direct to the ticket office on the day (about an hour or two before showtime) we got really decent seats so if you can't get any now - it's worth trying on the day.

hi
and thanks for the reply, do you feel cost of your coldplay tickets at the box office were good?

I ve only seen 2-3shows in vegas and well i ve always went to the tix4tonight ticket booths!

not all, but quite a few were the week or two before Christmas IIRC.

You can probably check now for an indication

hi
a bit of advice in regards show tickets.I ve just learned that mike tyson is doing one of his shows in vegas(3 nights i belieive when im over in june) plus its at the mgm grand where i am staying so doublely good !

whats the best way to go about getting tickets?
Any good realiable company to go to?
Just i had a look at tickermaster and it was like over £150 a ticket but another company ticket something was £53 a ticket though they have a bit n miss reputation(accoriding to some searches i did on the,)

Just i ve never got tickets for shows in vegas over here and i d worry i wont get a ticket over there,though that could be a possiablity though.

any advice most welcome and thanks!!:beer:

Cheers - just had a look and I've got two nights each at Monte Carlo, Excalibur and NYNY valid til the end of September. Not quite as good as yours but given I don't even qualify as a minnow in terms of coin in I'm very pleased! Will check Mr W-J's account too as his offers are normally better than mine.

Only thing is my offers are 'bonus dates' but it doesn't specify the dates so will need to give them a ring. We're going a few days after 4th July so I'm hoping we'll be able to use them
