Our Recommendations for Vegas Residencies to See
Can’t decide which tickets to buy? We don’t blame you. There are so many great options when it comes to seeing a Las Vegas residency from a top musician, and we’ve got a few recommendations to help out with any indecision.
A Diverse Group
If your group is struggling to come to a consensus on which residency to attend, and you won’t want to split up, there are a few acts that should appeal across the board. Santana and Adele offer the kind of Vegas show experience that offers something for everyone.
Pop Fans
For those of you who can’t get enough to pop music, then there are some very obvious choices here. Katy Perry and Kelly Clarkson perform spectacular, grandiose shows that will leave you with a sparkle in your eye. While Lady Gaga is considered the reigning Queen of Pop, her Vegas show is quite scaled back and won’t be the huge spectacle that you might be looking for.
A Quiet Night Out
If you’d like to have a nice, relaxing night at a more chilled-out show, Lady Gaga and Lionel Richie are the acts you’ll want to see. While they aren’t massively over-the-top, they are still incredibly entertaining with gorgeous performances from music’s biggest names.
Classic Rockers
Vegas residencies are often the only opportunity you’ll have to see some of the most legendary musical artists. So, if you and your group are partial to some classic rock, it would be well worth it to check out British rocker Billy Idol in Vegas this year.
Of course, we also recommend experiencing all of the other amazing things that Las Vegas has to offer, with luxury shopping, world-class casinos, unique exhibits and some of the best restaurants and bars in the world. You should also make sure to take time to relax, experiencing the stunning pools, spas and hotels in the city.
So, whether your getaway is one of leisure, you’re here for a spot of gambling or you’re in town on business for one of Vegas’ many conventions, you should definitely give yourself enough time to do as much sightseeing as possible.
