It’s that time of year again! The most wonderful time for Christmas in Las Vegas, with activities and holiday shows! Plus, New Year’s on Fremont Street with the Time of Your Life Festival! We have a run down of some of the biggest and most popular events happening in Sin City this December!
Hello friends, and welcome to This Week in Gambling! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! And yes, I know I’m a little bit early. But you see, my Holly Jolly Ass is taking the rest of the year year off! So, this is our last show for 2023. But, whether you’re headed to Las Vegas for the holidays or just planning on sitting at home for Christmas, we’ve got you covered.
First up, there’s always something going on for Christmas in Las Vegas. In fact, there’s way too much for us to cover in just one little video. However, some of the more festive activities this year include the beautiful Nutcracker display at the Bellagio, and the world’s largest Christmas light maze at Enchant Christmas located at the Las Vegas Ballpark. If you want something more active, however, there’s always the rooftop ice skating rink over at Cosmopolitan. And the absolutely amazing Christmas lights found at Mystic Falls Park at Sam’s Town.
If you’d like to take in a concert there are several, from Carrie Underwood at Resorts World to Mr. Las Vegas himself, Wayne Newton, over at Flamingo. There will also be holiday shows, including Merry Motown and T’was the Knight. Or if you prefer something more traditionally Christmas, the Nevada Ballet will also be performing their version of The Nutcracker.
Of course, after all the Christmas in Las Vegas parties there is the real party… but you have to stick around through New Year’s Eve and The Time of Your Life Festival down on Fremont Street. With Dancing DJs, a Silent Disco, and non-stop music on three different stages! Artists like Third Eye Blind and man, Tone Loc, and many others!The party starts at 6 p.m. and runs well past midnight!
And for those of you staying not spending Christmas in Las Vegas this year, don’t worry… we haven’t forgotten about you. In fact, we just released several new online online game reviews for holiday slots that you can play right from the comfort of your own couch, starting with Jingle Jokers, a three reel, three row game with five pay lines and low volatility. Featuring Wild Symbols and Expanding Wilds, along with a Gamble Feature and a Card Reveal Bonus that awards Free Spins!
Next up, it’s Naughty Santa… a high volatility, highly irreverent game with five reels and 432 paylines! It comes with Wilds, Scatters, Free Spins, and a Multiplier Meter that awards up to 10 times your bet! Both of these games, along with other holiday slot reviews, are live right now on our YouTube channel!
Finally this week, as I mentioned at the beginning of this program this is our last show for 2023. But when we return next year, some things gonna change ’round here! Including a new format, some new features, some new music. Sadly, the same old host. After an exhaustive search, we could not find anyone else, other than myself, stupid enough to do this for free. So, you’re stuck with me. Merry Christmas.
