Going out is the most popular pastime in Las Vegas. The casinos and hotels are also open during the day, but the atmosphere is only exciting after dark, when the city becomes a sea of lights. Casinos, restaurants and bars are crowded with tourists from all over the world. The casino hotels not only host the best stage shows, but also all the bars, nightclubs and bars with live music that are open until late at night. Clubs usually require a minimum age of 21 and often certain clothing. Live music is also a legendary form of Las Vegas entertainment – ?? World stars like Sammy Davis Junior, Frank Sinatra and Liberace were at home here.
Nightlife is spread across the Strip and Downtown, where there is an overwhelming selection of evening activities. Downtown has smaller, often more interesting locations, while the huge hotel complexes on the Strip offer a wide range of entertainment. Las Vegas is a city that never comes to rest. Alcohol is available at all times of the day and night in restaurants, bars and shops; However, alcohol can only be consumed from the age of 21. Most of the casinos dress casually, but some bars have dress codes. All types of entertainment that Las Vegas has to offer can be found on the Internet ( http://lvindex.com/rolodex.htm). The selection of the city’s most popular nightclubs and the event information on the Internet ( www.vegas.com/nightclubs) are also useful.
The cultural offer in Las Vegas doesn’t exactly meet the highest demands. It is true that the city has a good philharmonic orchestra and a ballet troupe, but they do not attract nearly the same number of visitors as the entertainment shows. Las Vegas can still come up with appearances of the most famous names in show business, whether actors and entertainers, magicians, circus acrobats or dancers.
Portiers with services are available in the larger hotels. Among other things, they can get tickets for the most popular cultural events, but you can also order them online at Ticketmaster (Internet: www.ticketmaster.com) and pay in advance. Tickets for performances at the West Las Vegas Arts Center , 947 West Lake Mead (tel: (702) 229 62 11) are available at the art center ticket office. Visitors can find the best event information online, for example on a website on cultural events in the USA (Internet: www.culturefinder.com) , which also offers good information about Las Vegas, and on the following websites: www.latinslasvegas.com or www.blackvegas.com or www.asianlasvegas.com).
Cultural event
Because of the growing population, more and more cultural and musical events are taking place in Las Vegas. For example, every spring the Jazz Festivals (April and May), the Folk Dance Festival (May) and the Mardi Gras Carnival are held in Fremont (April). Independence Day on July 4th in Las Vegas is of course celebrated as eagerly as it is throughout the United States, but strictly speaking, this holiday is not a cultural event, as Hunter S. Thompson’s reports of the car rallies in the area show. Las Vegas has already made a name for the toughest car rally in America, the BITD (Best in the desert) Nevada 1000. This 1609 km (1000 mile) race in the dust and heat of Nevada starts in Las Vegas and ends there five days later.
