The Academy of Country Music Awards returns to MGM Grand Garden Arena in May 2027, bringing country music's biggest stars together for a televised ceremony featuring live performances, surprise collaborations, and major award presentations. For something completely different, BattleBots has established a permanent arena behind Horseshoe Las Vegas, where 250-pound combat robots equipped with spinning blades, hammers, and flamethrowers face off in daily live competitions inside the steel-walled BattleBox. The family-friendly show brings the beloved TV series to life with unscripted battles that fill the venue with sparks, smoke, and genuine tension. Meanwhile, Mad Apple by Cirque du Soleil continues its run at New York New York Theater, blending high-flying acrobatics, live music, dance, and comedy into an immersive experience that captures the electric energy of a night out in New York City.
