Going to Vegas in a couple of weeks. Haven't been in 5 years and saw all the attractions at the time. Is there anything new since then?

I am jealous if you are going to the Men's World Curling Championships, which start March 31.  
 
If you are not going for that, but will be there around that time...it will be more of a zoo that usual.  
 
Sorry, no tips.

What is your definition of 'all the attractions'? I have been a few times and still wouldn't say I have seen 'everything', LOL. If we know what you've seen, we can help with what else there is left to see!

Why would you choose username muffin instead of cupcake? Why would you choose ford instead of Chevy? Why eat an apple instead of an orange?  
 
Different people like different things, hard to imagine I know.

Great comeback Cjford! I would love to go to Vegas to watch the Men's World Curling Championships!  
 
OP, not sure where your interests lie...in the past have you rented a car and gone out to the Grand Canyon? It was a fun day trip for us when we were in Vegas a few years ago.

We've been to the Grand Canyon, car museum at the Imperial, wax museum, shark reef at Mandalay Bay, zoo at the Flamingo, tiger exhibit at the Mirage, Titanic exhibit at the Luxor, and observation deck at the Paris. We've seen Terry Fator and a few Cirque de Soleil shows. Are there anything new?

The comedy club at the MGM is pretty good. Rent a car and go to the Hoover Dam, there is also a cute little town by there but can’t remember the name, There is a huge Bass Pro Shops if your into that thing (I’m not but it was still neat). Have you been to Fremont Street, pretty entertaining! The mob museum, the Ferris wheel thing. Can take a bus to the outlet malls. Big name entertainers change every few weeks/months see whose there when you go. David Copperfield was neat.

Don’t forget to add your daily resort fee and taxes from your hotel. Anywhere from $28 -$40 US per day. Hardly a deal anymore . If you use a third party like booking.com these fees are not included. A lot of people have been caught on that including me. Deal breaker . If that doesn’t phase you then go for it . Vegas is unlimited for what you can do there and close proximity . A side trip to Zion National Park is definitely worth it.

We went to their show a few weeks back and it was Awesome- we bought mid price ticket and got moved closer just before the show.  
If you like Ac/DC, GnR and such, check them out

The whole family really enjoyed this show.  
Tip, if you love to be i:ncluded in the show, pay for closer seats. The front few rows get ponchos.  
 
If you do not want the opportunity to be i:ncluded, sit upper level.

This month it's been 10 years since my brother and I went to Las Vegas for the Monster Jam World Finals.
