r/LasVegas

Coming out for a visit and am going to do one day at red rocks canyon. It seems like our best option is to rent a car for a day so we don't have to deal with Ubers/bad reception. We're staying at the Paris hotel. Is there any drawbacks to going through their rental system, can you reserve in advance, how far ahead do you need to reserve?

Thanks!

Heading to vegas, want to do more non traditional vegas things. I enjoy dive bars, kareoke, and live music. Any suggestions??

My fiancée and I are planning our honeymoon in Las Vegas in September 2027 for around a week, and I’d love some advice from people who have actually been recently.

I’ve already done the usual Google/YouTube/ChatGPT searches and looked at all the standard “Top 10 Vegas hotels” lists 😂 — but I’m much more interested in real experiences, particularly from couples/honeymooners.

We’re both early 30s and are looking for somewhere that feels luxurious, modern, clean and romantic, but still puts us close to the action.

A few things I’d particularly love opinions on:
🏨 Best hotel for a honeymoon?
❤️ Which hotels have the best** couples/romanti**c
atmosphere?
🛏️ Which rooms are genuinely worth paying extra for?
👀 Best Strip/view rooms?
✨ Which hotels feel properly luxury, rather than just expensive?
🍸 Best hotels for restaurants, bars, pools and things to do without constantly leaving the resort?
📍 How important is location really?
☀️ Is staying further up the Strip (e.g. Fontainebleau/Wynn) annoying in September because of the heat?
🚫 Any hotels you’d avoid for a honeymoon, and why?
💰 Anything you paid extra for that was absolutely worth it — or something you’d definitely not pay extra for again?

At the moment I’m looking at places like Fontainebleau, Wynn/Encore, Venetian/Palazzo, and Cosmopolitan, but I’m very open to being convinced otherwise.

If you’ve done a Vegas honeymoon/couples trip recently, what would you book again — and what would you do differently?

I’m particularly interested in the “if I were doing it again, I’d 100% do X” type of advice rather than generic hotel rankings.

Thanks! 🙌

Hey! I am looking for magic show recommendations, but this isn’t the usual “I’m going to Vegas, what magic show should I see?” post.

I’m a huge magic fan and it’s one of my main hobbies.

I’ve already seen Piff the Magic Dragon, Shin Lim, Colin Cloud, Frederic Da Silva, The Magician’s Study, Mat Franco, Mac King, and Late Night Magic. I loved those shows, but I'm having a harder time figuring out what else is actually worth seeing.

For my upcoming trip, I already have Jen Kramer and Mind2Mind on my list.

But, I am having trouble finding more shows because they are not the main ones people recommend.

I appreciate any recs you can throw my way.

Edit: Forgot to add a show a magic show I have been to and always see recommended. Yes, I have been to the casino floor where they will make my money disappear.

Ok my buddy just got divorced. Has lived a pretty sheltered life. Where should we go for halloween so i can put a smile on his face annd dont tell me a strip joint. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Do many people dress up or no?

Match is at 7pm. Best places to catch a match? We’re staying at the Flamingo but open to taking an Uber for the right vibe.

Okay, I’m curious 😂 For anyone who has seen Bruno Mars in Vegas, worked around him, bumped into him, or just has a random Vegas story involving him:
What’s the coolest/funniest/most unexpected Bruno story you’ve heard or experienced?
I’m especially interested in the Vegas era — things like:
Random sightings around Vegas
Stories from people who’ve worked at/around his shows
After-show stories
Funny fan interactions
What he’s like in person
Any memorable or wholesome moments
Basically anything that gives a little more insight into what he’s like outside the actual concert
Not looking for invasive/private information — just fun Vegas stories that you’re comfortable sharing! 😂
Bonus points for “I never thought I’d see Bruno Mars doing THAT in Vegas” stories.

Bringing my newly divorced buddy to Vegas for that weekend. He has lived a pretty sheltered life and i really want to show him a good time. Where do we go for Halloween (please no strip joint recommendations). Just want to put a smile on his face. P.s she cheated on him in case your wondering. Do alot of people dress up or no

Vegas just added a lot to the calendar.

🎸 John Mayer — 6 nights at Sphere

✨ LISA — 2 more Caesars Palace shows

🎸 Santana — 16 new 2027 dates

😂 Nikki Glaser + David Spade, Daniel Tosh and Tom Segura all added Vegas dates

🤘 A Perfect Circle — 2 nights at Fontainebleau

And the bigger story might be how much awesome 2027 is going to be while we’re barely into fall 2026.

I pulled together the dates, on-sale info and what actually matters in the latest Vegas Dispatch:
