Independent Las Vegas guide

Plan the trip with current, practical context

ThingsVegas is a static rebuild of the live guide: shows, hotels, restaurants, nightlife, attractions, and planning pages at the same URLs. Editorial from the production site is imported into Markdown; affiliate CTAs stay on the pages that already had Viator or Expedia links.

Start with the decisions that matter

Pick a hotel

Location, resort fees, and who the property actually fits — then check live rates.

Book a show

Resident productions ranked by value, audience, and runtime. Ticket CTAs where we have them.

Read a planning guide

First-timers, budgets, packing, resort fees, and getting around without guessing.
