blue man group

[Giggles1]

Hi,

Am I right in thinking that if you purchase the blue man group tickets that is all they are for and not entrance into US or IOA.

Also, deciding between BMG and La Nobu, 2 adults and 2 kids, 13 and 11? what do you think would be the best?

[Giggles1]

anyone?????????????

Hello, DW here, yep, the tickets to BMG do not include entance into the 2 parks, you do have to pay the parking fee but if I remember if you go after ..... I think 6.00 pm parking is free, you will be able to go into CityWalk. Right, we did both last year, we had already seen LaNu but not the BMG, the friends we went with had seen neither, we had 2 x 9 year old boys with us and I have just asked their opinion and they both think BMG was the better of the 2. La Nu is GREAT, loads of stuff going on at the same time, sound, vision, brilliant, BMG - really funny, strange, vision and sound, not wanting to give too much away but which ever one you choose you will have a GREAT evening. We booked a meal on CIty Walk before the show at 8.00 pm. A tip for BMG, after the show when everyone is pouring out there was 2 of the Blue Men 'signing' autographs and having pictures and everyone was pushing and crowding, 10 mins later when they have all finished there was only about 3 people so hold back if you want your picy. Also, some interesting art work is done, well the manner it is done is interesting, its in the shop after for purchase, they told me $50, really wish I had purchased it but hubby not keen, what does he know!! Would be an interesting topic of conversation about how it was made, if you go you will understand!!! As already said, which ever you choose you have a BRILLIANT time. Hope this helps.

thanks for that, I didn't think the parks were included, but someone who purchased the tickets believed they included the parks as well. I have already bought my US/IOA tickets now. I think I will go for both, as I cannot decide. I think I will go for the early one though. Are all the seats good?

[kingofhonour]

Which one, LaNu or BMG seats? BMG all seats have a good view as it is a small area, slanting upwards in a box shape just the nearer you are the better you can see whats happening on stage although they do have a large screen upfront showing whats going on on stage when it maybe difficult to see it all from the back rows, they also at times go into the audiance which again is on screen, we were in the poncho section second row in, really good view of what was happening! La Nu its a horse shoe shape stage and seating, no columes or anything but if you are right around the side then you may struggle to see what is happening in the back on your side but having said that have just been on the La Nu website and they offer you the facility to have a look at the view from all the seaitng. You are going to have the BEST time, glad you will not have to choose as they are both sooooooooooooooooooooo great, each in its own and different way.

thanks for that i am really excited now!

We saw La Nouba a few years ago, personally I didn't like it, I know i am in the minority as majority think its brilliant. Also went to see another Cirque 'O' in Vegas, again very good at what they do but they are not my kind of shows
On the other hand BMG is brilliant IMHO. that is my kind of show, we sat in poncho section although ponchos not needed hardly anything came into the audience.
Won't be going to anymore Cirque shows will be going back to see BMG.
Other people feel totally the opposite, you have to see both.

Gonna give La Nouba a rest this summer (been three times now) and try Blue Man ....

There are certain tickets to BMG that also include park admission. So your friend may have had those tickets.

So as you can tell you can't purchase the BMG tickets that include park admission.

[Giggles1]

thanks Anna, on my quick calculation, I think I may be better off. I have already purchased 4 adult tickets to US/IOA for 7 days for a total of £159.00. So I think I would be better just booking BMG!

[Anna]

I haven't seen much advantage to buying the combination tickets anyway. You can purchase them separately for just as cheap.

[Giggles1]

I can't wait to go!!!! hoping to book this now for over Christmas.
