I know, skip it. Can’t.

3 day 4 night company sponsored conference at Hilton Resorts World. I don’t need advice on the hotel I’m stuck there regardless.

Been many a year since I was last in Vegas.

Definitely going to check out the Sphere.

Any other must do’s? October and wife will be with me. TIA.

Definitely eat at Tacos El Gordo across the street. I hear the Steakhouse at Fontainebleau is great. If you get a car and want to escape the heat, go to Mt Charleston.

ETA: Missed October. Get a car and drive to Red Rock or Valley of Fire for a few hours. Amazing.

Peppermill across the street. Siegel’s Baglemania down the street.

Alle on the top floor for a night cap.

Every review I’ve seen of Carversteak sings its praises.

Golden Steer if you can snag a reservation. Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is a good outing out of the city. Ditto for Valley of Fire State Park.

Red Rocks for hiking about 30 minutes off the strip, weather should be good
Area 15 for Meow Wolf Omega Mart

If y'all like to hike, this is the most unique we've ever been on.
About 30 minutes from Vegas, you hike to the base of the Hoover Dam. There's rope sections but it totally doable if you're in any kind of decent shape.

I would pay to stay at the Wynn out my own pocket before I would stay at empty arse resorts world on someone else’s dime.

Vegas shows are amazing

Prioritize getting tickets for Absinthe …. i’ve seen probably 15 shows in Vegas, and this one was by far the best.


Then these Cirque shows:
O
Mystere
Michael Jackson ONE
KA
Mad Apple

Resorts World is struggling, I think it’s mostly due to its location because it is a nice facility.

Would.

Also: Head over To the Bleau Bar at Fountainebleau. It’s stunning.

Very solid advice in this thread.

I would go off strip and eat one night at Herbs and Rye. It has steaks that are really good at about half the price of any other steak I’ve eaten in Las Vegas.
