Best Shows in Las Vegas — Cirque, Comedy, Music & Magic

Cirque du Soleil — The Vegas Staples

Cirque du Soleil has more permanent shows in Las Vegas than anywhere else in the world. “O” at Bellagio is the crown jewel — a water-based spectacle performed in and above a 1.5-million-gallon pool that’s been running since 1998 and still sells out. Mystère at Treasure Island is the original Vegas Cirque (since 1993) — pure acrobatics and physical theater with no gimmicks. KÀ at MGM Grand is the most technically ambitious, with a stage that rotates and lifts the entire set vertically. LOVE at The Mirage is the Beatles tribute — Cirque acrobatics set to remastered Beatles music. Mad Apple at New York-New York is the newest and most comedy-forward.
