tix4tonight or tickets2nite???

[AMelan001]

Two same-day, half-price ticket hawkers in town... Which one, in your experiences, has typically offered the larger variety of tickets and/or the "better" (closer to a-list) shows in the past? We obviously can't be at two places at the same time to check out ticket availability, so trying to get a sense as to which one is the "better" of the two. THOUGHTS?

Leaving in two days and just can't wait to get there!!!

Thank you for asking, I have been wondering about tickets also. We arrive on Sunday, can't wait. I will be watching for a response. Thanks again.

Hey Fellow Bostonian

We were in Vegas in April of this year and used Tickets2Nite. The day that we went they did not have any Tier One shows on sale but did have many Tier Two and Three shows available. We purchased tickets for Legends at Imperial Palace for the early show and then tickets for George Wallace at Flamingo for a later show the same evening. Had good seats for both shows at a reasonable price so we were pleased with the experience. Did not go to the other vendor so can not really compare them but we were happy with Tickets2Nite. We are heading back out on December 16th. If you are there Sunday, go to Sports Book at the Venetian or Bellagio to watch the Pats beat the Broncos!

:) Sorry, as an ex-MA resident, I am now alll Broncos!

I do not know which one is in the Coke building by the MGM, but we have gotten good tier 2 shows too there. Curious if calling is as effective.

I've always heard more about TIX4TONIGHT than the other...and all good!
Their customer service and choices seem to be better...

The key to getting your best deal at either is to get there at 11:30AM
when they post the choices...and get to your Show's Boxoffice 2 hours
early to get the best seat choices for your first come/first serve voucher.

We've all heard they get some "A" Show tickets sometime too...YES they do.
Wheather those are shown on the morning board or if the come up later in
the afternoon, I don't know.

TIX4TONIGHT
South Strilp next to Harley-Davidson Cafe at Harmon...
Fashion Show Mall Strip Entrance in front of Neiman Marcus...
and North Strilp across from the Stardust in a little trailor.

They're all run by the same company - just different locations.

[GREGRIO]

That's interesting 'debb0223', I've never heard that before. Odd they'd
choose two different names to suggest competition between the two...
must be a buisness/tax/loophole/ thing if that's true (or maybe) if you personally heard it from one or the other.....they just wanted to keep you
there and sell you THEIR ticket.

I've never used either but I do hear more about TIX4TONIGHT
than TICKETS2NITE which is an independent marketing company
from The Coca Cola Company.
More than once I've read in TR's that TIX4's customer service folks
go out of their way to help you...not that TICKETS2 don't, I'm sure
they both can get the job done.

Maybe Debb0223 is confused because tix4tonight has 3 locations on the strip as posted on their website.http://www.tix4tonight.com/location.htm which are of course owned by the same company. TICKETS2NITE- the one by the Coke bottle is a different company, at least that's the impression I get form their webiste http://www.tickets2nite.com/. The two have different phone #'s and email addresses as well as differnt website.

Tickets2nite was the original discount outlet, but the two owners had different operating philosphies so one opted to leave the company. He subsequently opened up tix4tonight which has the 3 outlet locations identified by Greg. Per a LVRJ article, there is now a 3rd discount ticket company in operation, but has opted to remain unadvertised until it gains some additional shows. I love the competition.

Addendum: the new player is showtickets and here is a link to an article about the firm:

I think you're right - I was confused, but then again, I usually am!!!!!
