How to Get the Best Inexpensive Seats at Las Vegas Shows

However, like everything else in Vegas, the shows can be pricey, especially if you pay full price for tickets. Learn how to look for deals and where to find them so that on your next trip to Sin City you can get more value for your entertainment dollar.

Shop for package deals before you go to Las Vegas. Las Vegas is a leading tourist destination, and as a result, packages are available that include everything you need to have a great vacation. (See References.) This includes airfare, hotels, tickets to shows and sometimes even meal vouchers. Tickets included in these types of packages tend to offer the greatest savings over the face value of the tickets.

Look for discount tickets packaged with your hotel stay. Many hotels have shows on site that are top sellers. The hotels may have deals that provide tickets to their shows as part of a package included with a room booking.

Check the show's website for any special deals. For instance, the run of "O" at the Bellagio features occasional deals such as 25 percent off tickets on certain dates. These discounts are available for purchase online.

4
Book tickets to a show as part of a large group. Many shows offer discounts if you make a group reservation. You can get these types of discounts if you book with a tour group, or you can organize your own group of friends to qualify.
-
5
Look for coupons and deal listings in Las Vegas. Magazines available all around the city and in the hotels will have coupons and sales that can save you money on your show tickets.
-
6
Take in a free show instead. Free shows and music are available on the Strip that can provide you with the cheapest entertainment of all. For example, you can take in a free live music show at Harrah's.
-
7
Check the seating chart for your show before you buy tickets. Don't save a bunch of money only to end up sitting where you can barely see the stage. Websites for the shows themselves, and websites that sell tickets such as Ticketmaster, have seating charts available. Always check the position of your seat before you leap at a deal. With planning, you can get inexpensive seats that are also in a good location.
