Coming from Europe: Shows & basic accomodation in LV feb. 2009

[Timmovitz]

Hi, I'm fortunate to find this site & hope you can share tips to a Danish tourist – that’s as in Denmark, Europe ;-)

I’ll be in Los Angeles January 26. – February 13. I hope to experience Las Vegas 3-4 days like February 2.-6. (my 33. birthday – any discounts/promotions on birthday?) or February 8.-12. I planned to be there the weekend 6.-8. but hotels seem to be triple priced :(

My price range is “cheap as possible” = 20-40 $. Economy in Europe is down too :-/ Spend money on experiences & food like lobster, sushi, seafood buffet, steaks & cornbread.

I’m not a gambling man, so I only want to experience the atmosphere, shopping & shows… & the sexy American women of course!

I’d love to see Cirque de Soleil. I’ve seen CdS Quidam in Copenhagen & absolutely loved it! What can you recommend – I’ve been told to see O’s and Mystere.

Can any help me with discounted tickets via coupons to shows in Vegas & basic accommodation. Google from Europe doesn't give the same responses as in US. I've found on this forum site:

Tickets2Nite
Tix 4 tonight

But the Tickets2Nite.com is defect. Another problem being is that I don't have any experience with them & know if they have tickets to shows like Cirque de Soleil, Criss Angel, Nathan Burton or UFC. Do any of you know? And which have bigger selection as I can't be in 2 places at same time to get tickets when they go on sale. I've read on internet there's supposed to be a third. Also I'd like to go by helicopter at sunset.

Wish list:
1. Cirque de Soleil
2. Criss Angel
3. Nathan Burton
4. amusement parks like Stratosphere (?) roller coaster on top of building
5. UFC
6. other energetic surprising shows:)

Ps. I travel by myself, so if there’s good cheap bus-hotel packages from LA. I would like it too :) Or if someone needs a chaperone, call me ;-) I’ve as a minor been on a packaged tour to LV but only 1 night. Any suggestions on itinerary, discounts ect will be greatly appreciated – I’m also on facebook.

Thanks,

Tim Mai

Go to the hotel websites, sign-up for their players club and e-mail offers. You should get some deals.

Please note, the sexy American woman pictured on the porn slapper cards are not really available for $30. :D

LOVE was excellent. You can get discounted tickets on the Mirage site.

These discounted tickets are usually for the middle tier shows. rarely Cirque shows, though in February you might get lucky.

Wish list:
1. Cirque de Soleil
2. Criss Angel - Reviews suggest this show is rubbish.
3. Nathan Burton
4. amusement parks like Stratosphere (?) roller coaster on top of building
5. UFC
6. other energetic surprising shows:)
