Things to do

What to actually do in Las Vegas

Beyond the hotel room, here is how I would spend your time and money in Vegas. Pick a category to dig in.

Shows

Cirque, magic, residencies, comedy, and the adult late-night stuff.

Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Red Rock, and getting out of the city.

The Sphere, the High Roller, thrill rides, and what is worth your time.

The fountains, the conservatory, and everything that costs nothing.

Buffets, steakhouses, cheap eats, and where to drink.

Clubs, day clubs, pool parties, rooftop bars, and lounges.

Resort fees, getting around, when to go, and how to save.
