๐Ÿฝ๏ธ Dining Tip

The Strip has the densest concentration of celebrity chef restaurants in the world. Pre-show dinner at Joรซl Robuchon (MGM Grand), Hell's Kitchen (Caesars), or Momofuku (The Cosmopolitan) turns a great night into an unforgettable one.

๐Ÿš— Getting Around

Walk between venues on the south/center Strip โ€” they're closer than they look. For north-south trips, the Las Vegas Monorail connects major resorts. Rideshare is the best option for venues at the strip's ends (Mandalay Bay to Resorts World is a long walk).
