You aren’t kidding. We booked Aria and are coming in Wednesday for slightly cheaper flights.
We are now flying in Tuesday night. This was supposed to be a quick 3 night trip and now it’s 5 nights. Tuesday is very affordable if you can pull It off. Thursday you need to refinance your house!
Also for those that can stomach a non refundable hotel Hotwire has great prices on their hot deals. You can figure out which hotel it is by looking at the review rating and number of reviews. We booked Hilton DoubleTree Tropicana for a good rate.
Tried to convince my wife for Tuesday but already pushing it with leaving 3 kids with Grandma / Grandpa so Wednesday it is!
Getting in Thursday afternoon. Booked New York, New York right across the street from the MGM Grand.

Hoping that the Golden Knights make it to the second round and somehow have a playoff home game on the 18th,19th or 21st. I might even hit up that EDC festival if they sell single days on the 21st. I have never been to something as crazy as that and might be fun to check out.
Anything else anyone local would suggest aside from the touristy stuff that is widely known or easily searchable?

I wouldn’t mind seeing a Golden Knights playoff game if they make it that far.
@PJNB; there are several awesome beer and food places north of the Strip. Able Baker Brewing and HUDL Brewing are really good.

I'm a local. What are you looking for?
Food recommendations! I love all food and would be curious where someone from LV would eat. Generic question I guess but we will be there for 5 days so would love to try all sorts of types of food.
Also looking to elope... anyone wants to be witness to my cheap vegas style marriage, hit me up hahaha

Esther's Kitchen for Italian in the Arts District, schedule a reservation in advance. Echo & Rig - Off-strip steakhouse in the burbs (Summerlin). Herbs and Rye - Off-strip steakhouse (close to the strip) 50% off steaks during happy hour. Able Baker Brewing - Good pub/bar food, Arts District Lotus of Siam - Thai food, one of Anthony Bourdain's favorites, close to the strip. John Mulls Road Kill Grill - Incredible BBQ, in the burbs Velveteen Rabbit - Craft cocktails and good craft beer menu (albeit small), Arts District Tacos El Gordo - Tacos
I'm sure I'm missing some others. If I think of more, I'll update the thread.
ONLY show I put in for. Want to go. BAD. I’ll have my 9/11 MSG floor tickets to trade (2) and Mandalay Bay/MGM Hotel rooms to trade. Have 3 rooms booked total. Up for trade! When I get my Vegas decline. 🤠 😑🙄 so keep me in mind when you score Vegas floor.
Prices are nuts to go to Vegas for this weekend. It would cost me about 3X what I paid for a flight and hotel to Vegas a couple months ago. I'm probably going to pass and pivot to trying for Nashville tickets instead.
