    Got tickets for free with a stay at the Signature At MGM. Just asked if they had any when I booked.

    I think the cheapest tickets are the best ones as far as being able to enjoy everything presented. You’ll understand why once you see the show.

    Hope you're right!

    I'm in the first row of the 300-section.

    I actually go into this with very low expectations, and I'm only going because I love the Fabs. I've never been interested in Cirque - hope the show changes my mind!

    Get there early! They play backing tracks that sound amazing on the remarkable theater sound system.

    No refunds and I doubt your son or you will want one. In fact you might actually want to go back again to share this wonderful show with some more people. It is mind expanding and not being a total Beatle's head I actully got insight into some of their songs never realizing they were commenting on so much of what was politically and socially going on at the time.

    Lean back deep in your chair during "Come Together" and listen to John singing in one ear and Paul in the other. My favorite audio moment in the show. And there's lots of cool circus stuff too. :)

    I've been twice in the past few years and have enjoyed both. The first time ended up with a couple extra tickets, so took some friends who aren't even big Beatles fans and they really liked it. Went this past August and took the wife and she loved it (no pun intended). We sat in the same row, section that you got.

    Keep an open mind and don’t zone out. There are several very cool surprises in the show! Enjoy!

    next time I'm there I'm going. The only Cirque de Soliel show I've seen is the one down near the Riviera Maya, a Caribbean themed show.

    Have to mention the $15.00 tap beer in the lobby bar. Originally the cup was hard plastic.
    When the show's color theme changed from yellow/red to blue, they changed the cup to a flimsy thin plastic.

    Same here!

    The lovely lady in my avatar did see it a few years back and absolutely loved it.

    I saw the show about 10 years ago. Took a detour to Vegas specially at the end of a cross country trip before flying home (as Vegas otherwise holds little appeal for me). I am not particularly a fan of Cirque or of that kind of performance in general but Love is special. If nothing else, the enveloping quality of the soundtrack is extraordinary and the show itself is surprisingly sympathetic and respectful to the band and its history. Some of the audio surprises have now become familiar through subsequent archive releases so may not now have quite the same capacity to surprise anymore but it s a visual feast and I loved it. I'm not sure that it is possible to be a Beatles fan and not enjoy the show at some level.
