Any suggestions on "must see" things/shows/events would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance!
Have a great weekend all !

Hi
Would suggest a Cirque de Soleil show- amazing and well worth it!

Another romantic touch is a Gondola ride at the Venetian.

Lots of good cocktail options with spectacular views but you coud role these all into one item and have a great night! Start at Mandalay bay and work your way up the Strip.

Love your list!

Didn't know about the zipline at Fremont Street - My 9 year old is now very keen to do it!

How about adding on Hoover Dam? Grand Canyon?

Gondola at the Venetian?

Visit Little White Wedding Chapel?

Also, I'm curious what is the secret location at the top of Bill's Parking Garage?

There is a post on TA about 50 things to do for a 50th birthday. You may get some ideas on there.

Chocolate martini - definitely at the Chandelier Bar at the Cosmopolitan.

Hello Nat, your list sounds fab already, and I shall be watching this post with interest as we hoping to do NY and Vegas next year for DH 50th. Have fun planning and UTB

I went to Vegas for my 30th! A few recommendations I can make:

Hire a convertible and drive out to the Hoover Dam. You can do the tour there or just park up and walk across the bridge. Very cool. Drive back via the Valley of Fire state park - a great way to spend a day away from the craziness of the strip.

If you're going to the Grand Canyon, do a South Rim tour. We flew out there then got a coach and stopped at a couple of points in the park - it was amazing to walk out and see the Canyon which you've seen in so many photos and films.

Have a Witch Doctor in the Voodoo Lounge at the top of the Rio before going out onto the deck to look at the twinkling lights of the strip.

Stroll through the shops at the Wynn - very expensive! But then get yourself a "free" chocolate martini while having a go on a slot machine.

Big Elvis is at Bill's and he's really good.

We saw The Rat Pack is Back at The Plaza. Not sure if it's still on but we really enjoyed it.

If I remember any others I'll add them later. Have a fabulous time!
