Enjoying Live Music in Vegas

By Helen Gerogette


Concert venues in Las Vegas range all the way from the huge to the intimate. Just like the rest in the great Las Vegas, whatever your preference actually is, you can find it somewhere in Vegas.

The Pearl

The Pearl Concert Theater has something for everyone. Top acts starting from heavy metal to pop and beyond play its halls constantly, making it good for virtually any age. The theater sits within the Palms Casino Resort on the bustling Strip in Las Vegas. It seats 2,500 with room for standing close to the stage, making it neither too big nor too little. Pricing for each show type will vary, with a number of the present acts ranging between 45 bucks and 80 dollars per ticketticket.

The House of Blues

Another location housed in and around a casino resort, this one the Mandalay Bay, The House of Blues Music Hall deals with music royalty and music quality from several genres. Something is always going down at The House of Blues. Every Sunday, the Crossroads at House of Blues, next door, hosts the Gospel Brunch, with kids more than welcome. Between the 2 related Las Vegas concert venues, some shows are free to the public while others can be less than $20 a ticket. Seating is on 3 levels, and overall capacity is about the same as The Pearl.

The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace

When it comes down to Las Vegas concert venues, The Colosseum is doubtless the most famous name for music. It seats up to 4,300 inside a re-created Roman Colosseum affiliated with the opulent Caesar's Palace resort. Some of the most important names in music history have stayed to describe it as home for a period, like Cher and Bette Midler. Now, the Colosseum hosts performers Celine Dion, Rod Stewart, Elton John, and Shania Twain. Though show times start reasonably early in the evening, better seating can cost upwards of $500 for some performers.

The Joint

The Joint, first rock locale in Vegas, is housed in The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Vegas. Though not as intimate as The Pearl or The House of Blues at 4,000 seats, the locale still plays host to some well-known bands, like Crosby, Stills & Nash, as well as the wilder and harder bands, for example Motley Crue and Five Finger Death Punch. Prices will alter, but some shows will cost significantly less than $30 while some others may cost as much as $250. Most concerts will be 21 and up.

Orleans Arena

For those that may wish the experience of a big concert stuffed with thousands of chanting fans, the Orleans Arena might be the ticket. The Arena hosts family-friendly shows from Disney all of the way to major concerts from big-name stars. As with all enormous arena-style concerts and larger venues, pricing will alter in the opinion of the selection of seating and the event attended. This is proving to be one of the largest concert venues in Las Vegas that many people tend to rank very highly.
