Marriott Las Vegas Grand Chateau

Saw "KA" --- it was awesome. Very different. We got 30% on same day tickets at the box office simply by asking for "single" seats. Better price and than the discount ticket places offer and we had some seat selection. So we didn't sit next to each other. Had GREAT seats near each other and saved over $70!

At the Hawaiian Marketplace (leave Grand Chateau using the alley on the left, when reaching the Las Vegas Blvd, it will be immediately on your left), there's a kiosque of "Tix 4 Tonight". They sell shows tickets only for the same day, at prices usualy 40 to 50% less than regular price. It opens at 9am. The only incoveniance is that you receive a voucher and have to have it exchanged for the ticket at the box office of the theather, when your seat will be assigned; box offices usually open at 12pm, and the sooner you arrive, the better will be your seat.

Usually Cirque du Soleil will be priced between $70 to $100 (front seats, reg $150 to $200).

I recommend LOVE at the Mirage. A must see. Better that "O".

Correct re Tix 4 Tonight. But some hot shows, like KA are not discounted much, like only 10% and you have no idea where your seats will be. Also I had to wait in line for 45 minutes to find this out. I got a better deal from the box office itself.

LOVE was a second choice, but was not available at Tix 4 Tonight for the days I wanted.

Now, had I wanted to see some of the other shows, Tix 4 Tonight can be a good venue for buying tickets.

Looks like something may actually be happening with Tower 3 - the project was put out to bid, closing end of April. Don't feel like paying $99 to get the details.

Not surprising at all. MGC is part of the MVCI Asia Pacific Program and they are trying to attract more international customers to LV.

We bought our tickets for KA directly from the box office. We sat high in the center. Tickets were good. Costs less than Tix 4 tonight. Tix 4 tonight sells vouchers. You still have to go the box office and get your specific seats.
For KA you need seats in the center. High is fine. The theater is not large and the action goes on all round.
We also saw Zumanity..was stranger than expected. Not our favorite. KA was fabulous and my husband loved it even though he did not expect to.
A lot of the theaters in Vegas are not large. Compare ticket prices.

Good advice to shop. I've used Tix 4 tonight several times with good results. Saw "The Producers" starring Tony Danza for about $50 a seat. However, I've also had good luck using the concierge at the Grand Chateau. They have a direct line to get good seat locations.

I've also used some players cards at MGM and Planet Hollywood to see free shows. You can also go on one of those timeshare presentations to get free tickets if you can stand the sales pitch. There's a booth a the "Mile of Shops" where you can sign up. I don't recommend it but it's there.

For the most part the shows are expensive so it's a good idea to read the reviews before spending your money.
