It may seem weird, but the plan to make Sin City a tourist destination is working. Las Vegas gaming revenue numbers have fallen from last year while the state’s tourism has been booming for the past three years. And while the figures are not alarming, they are interesting. First, let’s look at what the Silver State is famous for: Betting! The year on year Las Vegas gaming revenue fell in 2024, but it was only down about 1% from the year before. Profit from gaming on the Las Vegas Strip fell by over $88 million, with the most noticeable drop…

The Eagles residency is officially coming to an end, as the legendary band sets the final dates to their tenure at Sphere Las Vegas. The last eight shows of the run are scheduled for this fall, so if you want to see them in this amazing venue you may need to hurry.

These performances will conclude the band’s ever expanding residency, which now includes a total of 44 shows from September 20th, 2024. The Eagles residency…

We never got to visit the Pawn Stars downtown location, but we hear we didn’t miss much. That’s not a negative statement about the show or the shop, but if we’re being honest it was more of a tourist trap that a real destination. The guys on the show are never there.

Still, we loved watching the show for the 20-plus years it ran on History Channel. And it made the Gold &…

Back in July we reported on a planned Bellagio expansion along their beloved water feature. That project was detailed in this article, and was supposed to bring 400,000 square feet of new retail shops, along with restaurant boasting amazing views of the fountain shows. But now the project is on hold… perhaps indefinitely. Plans for the Bellagio expansion project, including several renderings, were removed from the Paradise Town Advisory Board’s agenda at request of Bellagio. Although the project was never officially announced, preliminary plans had been submitted to the board, which serves as a liaison between the Paradise community on…

I’ve been visiting the Bellagio Las Vegas for years now. I also knew the original owner of the “gambling.com” website. And while the famous hotel can accommodate more people than the actual Lake Como in northern Italy… and while Graham was quite possibly the nicest person I’ve ever met… I never thought I would be writing a news article about both at the same time! Despite being over 20 years old, Bellagio in Las Vegas was recently named the world’s best casino by Gambling.com. Known for its elegance and world-class gaming offerings, the Bellagio remains a favorite among visitors, cementing…
