Rock royalty takes over the Strip this weekend as AC/DC POWER UP TOUR thunders into Allegiant Stadium with special guest The Pretty Reckless, delivering the wall-of-sound experience that's made them legends for decades. For a completely different kind of spectacle, BattleBots brings live, unscripted robot combat to the arena behind Horseshoe, where 250-pound machines armed with flame-throwers and spinning blades duke it out in a bullet-resistant steel cage—it's chaotic, loud, and surprisingly family-friendly. If you'd rather stay immersed in music history, The King Returns recreates Elvis's iconic 1969 comeback residency in the very same Westgate showroom where he made history.
For a taste of Nashville without leaving Vegas, head to Ole Red for a stacked lineup featuring Downtown Avenue's honky-tonk energy, rising talents Chase Brown and Lexi Lew, and the genre-bending DJ Caffine mixing country twang with electronic beats. Theater lovers have plenty to choose from too, whether it's the death-defying aquatic artistry of "O" by Cirque du Soleil®, the adults-only thrills of Absinthe at Caesars, or the mind-bending illusions of Criss Angel MINDFREAK at his own theater.
Vocal powerhouses also take center stage, with Kelly Clarkson: Studio Sessions bringing her Grammy-winning pipes to The Colosseum, while hip-hop fans can catch a rare intimate performance from Jeezy during his limited four-night run at PH Live. And if you're looking for something completely unexpected, the Backstreet Boys: Into The Millennium residency at the Sphere reimagines their greatest hits with jaw-dropping visuals—just be sure to stick around, since Nick and Howie sometimes keep the party going afterward at Two of a Kind - After Party with Nick + Howie.
