Fall may be slowly approaching in the rest of the U.S., but fall events and show specials will be soon in full swing in Las Vegas. When planning your perfect Vegas vacation, check out the best events for the fall season that will keep you coming back for more.

  1. At the Wynn Hotel, La Reve-The Dream show is in full effect, offering a special fall ticket price. This experience is an abstract and beautifully artistic interpretation of the subconscious mind during sleep. The water based back-drop further expands the cerebral feel of the show which is described as sometimes dark and surreal. Fun Fact: The show was designed around a painting by Picasso which depicts his mistress colorfully and abstract; these qualities are maintained within the production.
  2. Looking for an amazing once and a lifetime experience: Check out Elton John: The Million Dollar Piano, onSeptember 18, 2013 at Caesars Palace. This legendary pianist and songwriter is sure to please; showcasing his accompaniment of musical genius and dramatic imagery. This show will be the benchmark of Elton John’s three year residency at Caesars Coliseum.
  3. Santana will be playing live at The House of Blues from September 11-20th. An Intimate Evening with Santana Greatest Hits Live will be an experience to remember. The show boasts a set list which is compromised of Santana’s greatest hits spanning from the 1960s-to present day. This performer’s intricate guitar playing and entrancing arrangements promise a most memorable experience.
  4. Absinthe, at the Strip Side in Caesars Palace is soon to be a classic in Sin City. Absinthe combines old world burlesque and comedy to keep you on the edge of your seat. The adult only circus atmosphere is ingeniously enhanced by the “ring leader”, aptly named The Gazillionaire, an exaggerated character who provokes the audience to experience whichever emotion he desires. It is said to be an interactive show where anything can happen, and ranges from awe-inspiring to playful and seductive.
