Las Vegas Show Tickets

Looking for Las Vegas Show Tickets?

So you want to see Cher at Caesars Palace or Cirque O at the Bellagio but you’ve noticed these events are all sold out. What do you do now? There’s one last chance to get these tickets directly from the box office but that might mean camping out in the stand by line on the day of the show. More than likely you’re going to have to find you’re tickets on the secondary market.

First here are a few tips for getting tickets for Las Vegas shows

The secondary market means buying tickets from a ticket broker or finding an individual with tickets that they need to get rid of. That can often lead to higher costs.

Consider other shows that release tickets on the day of the event and are sold at Half Priced ticket venues on the strip. Use Tix4tonight and get half priced show tickets. They have 5 locations on the strip so you should be able to find one of them.

• Fashion Show Mall – in front Neiman Marcus
• Hawaiian Marketplace – Near the Polo Towers
• North Strip – Just South of the Riviera near the Peppermill
• Showcase Mall – Next door to the MGM Grand
• Downtown - At the Four Queens Hotel

So what’s this last chance box office business all about? Simple, win big! If you win big enough casinos might even “comp” your tickets. High Rollers get treated well in this city and there’s always a select reserve of premium tickets held for winners like these. If you’re an average Joe and want to buy tickets from the box office, you better plan your trip well in advance and hop on the box office the day these tickets go on sale, which is usually three months in advance. Be sure to rub your rabbit’s foot for extra luck while you’re on hold because the good seats are gone in a flash. If your luck’s not good enough to earn you High Roller status but you still have enough dough in your pockets to pay more for your tickets than what’s printed on the face, you’ll need to find yourself a quality ticket broker or try your luck online.

If you’re contemplating buying tickets “on the street” from a “ticket scalper” you must think you’re very lucky indeed. Scalping is highly discouraged in Sin City as well as illegal. If you are lucky enough to see someone selling tickets outside the venue the day you want to attend, there will probably be an officer nearby just waiting for him to try and sell them to you.
