    Lobby Bar

    We purchased tickets for the social lounge and I couldn't find much out there as far as pictures or reviews, so I wasn't sure what to expect. This review is for anyone that is contemplating social lounge tickets and to give you a better idea of what to expect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The social lounge is a space on the 2nd floor balcony - there are no seats, just a few scattered couches - but mainly standing room only.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]As you can see in the pictures, there are two bars: One in the lobby area, another in the balcony area (which on this night was closed due to slow sales I guess)[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. There are also bathrooms available in the lobby area. The attached pictures show you exactly what to expect - the lobby bar, the inside bar, a view from the railing and a view of the inside area. We never had any food - I'm not even sure if that was an option. Drink prices were what you'd expect, but overall I thought it was a fun option if you don't mind standing the whole time.

    I honestly feel like because of the way everything happened, the security came across as biased and even a bit sexist. I was the one who got kicked, elbowed, and ended up bleeding, yet I'm the one they pulled aside and told to go back to my spot while nothing was done to the man who actually hurt me. It really felt like they dismissed what happened to me instead of taking it seriously.

    When I found out that my favorite band, Motionless in White, was coming back to Las Vegas, as a super fan I just had, had, HAD to see them yet again. This was my tenth time seeing them (yep, that's right, tenth) - I saw them every year beginning in 2013 (twice in 2017 and 2018), until COVID restrictions in 2020 and 2021 snapped my yearly streak. Their opening bands were Alphawolf, After the Burial, and Knocked Loose, which I've never heard of. There was no line when we got there, which made entering the venue easy and simple. I've seen countless concerts here back when it was called The Joint (and way back before it was expanded), but this was my first concert under the Virgin Hotels name. I bought general admission tickets and though we were a little further back closer to the bar area, we still had a great view of the stage. The sound quality was decent and leaving the theater was easy breezy, just the way I remember it. The venue hasn't really changed at all when it was converted from The Joint. Drink prices were not great, but at the same time, however, they were better than the drink prices at Bakkt Theater at Planet Hollywood. I had a sprite/vodka cocktail and my boyfriend had a coke/run cocktail. Both cocktails were a total of $35, which is what you expect at a concert in Vegas. Motionless in White put on a fantastic performance (as always) and I can't wait to see them again!

    We attended an orchestral concert and we were able to obtain seating on the floor area closest to the stage. I'm short so I was a bit worried about someone tall sitting in front of me and blocking my view since it's not super tilted or anything. But because the stage is raised, I was still able to see ok once the people seated in front of me took their position. They don't allow any water bottles in the venue so you either have to leave it outside unattended, throw it away or take it back to your vehicle. Some people decided to leave their elaborate bottles outside on the ground against the wall and we overheard that someone just came around and either took them all away or threw them away. The Huz was wondering if they had a cup of ice water available but was told that the only water they have available is a bottled one you must purchase. Capitalism is alive and well. LOL! I get it though. Overall it was a good experience. The air conditioning worked well. Parking is free. We enjoyed our concert. But is it the best concert venue I've been to? No.

    We saw the incredible M83 perform here a few weeks ago which also happened to be our first time at this venue. I really liked the overall layout of the venue; it was super easy to move around and get from our seats, to the bar area, and restrooms. The bar was also quick & efficient with friendly bartenders who were slinging some super strong drinks! I knocked a star because this is 100% a GA Standing room is best type of venue. We had front row seats, but because all rows are pretty much floor level (meaning there was hardly any incline/stadium type seating) it was tough to see the stage with all the GA people standing. We ended up ditching our seats halfway through and asked security if we could just stand in GA instead (they let us through, yay) - the view & experience was way better there than at our seats. FYI to anyone booking a VIP seat/table, the floor level ones are a joke. They're at the back of the GA floor so you can't see anything. The group at the VIP table in front of our regular seats complained the whole time about how they couldn't see. The VIP tables on the 2nd floor would be way better, but note that they are really far back from the stage in comparison to the regular seats. I do love this venue and we'll be back, but I would only ever do GA for future shows.

    This is a review for VIP seating , my family attended a rock concert on 9/5/24 . This review is only for VIP seating on couch 2 . Waitresses were impeccable on their service and checking on customers every 15 to 30 minutes to make sure we have drinks and snacks available. Was really pleasant security guard Jimmy went above and beyond servicing VIP members. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The couches had good views overlooking general admission floor seating, giving you a good amount viewing of the artist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I only complaint about the concessions at the theater was the only had beef jerky , candy and Pringles for snacks I feel they should've had popcorn or even some nachos to satisfy concert goers

    Review #21 of 2023 The Theater at Virgin Hotels hosted PFL1, PFL2, and PFL3 three Fridays in a row. We attended PFL2 on April 7th at 4 P.M. I wanted to thank the PFL and VetTix for this generous donation. We really enjoyed the event and we were exposed to fighters that were new to us. The MMA tournament was reminiscent of the nascent Pride Grand Prix days in the early 2000's. We were very impressed with the Leibrock match and are looking forward to seeing her in a PFL PPV. Points of improvement, the security team wasn't very welcoming. In actuality, they were very rude. My dietary needs require to watch my blood sugar, they wouldn't allow me to bring in my diabetic snacks. I ate what I could ahead and was forced to toss the rest. I asked if they had food and drinks inside to which they said yes. Their idea of that was alcohol at the bar. It was very demeaning to have to deal with this crass crew. When dealing with security inside the event seating area, the woman we interacted was condescending in relation to my walker which she called a "stroller." She wanted me to leave it at the stairwell. I asked her if she could help and she had this look of disgust. I asked my wife to take my walker to the stairwell and security to show her where to place my Assistive walking device. The event itself had amazing energetic vibes, with an air, and made up for the bad interactions we had with security. Unsure if we would attend an in person event again at Virgin hotels as they aren't very ADA friendly for these type of events, but leaning towards no. Regardless, thank you all for allowing us to be a part of this.

    I went to the theatre at the Virgin hotel for a Keith Sweat concert, and my date and I enjoyed ourselves! The venue is small and intimate, the best venue to see a show. The sound system was solid. We were seated in the middle of the floor, and a balcony section formed a letter U in the back and side of the venue. I am a huge music lover, so I stood and danced with my date for most of the show. The seats on the floor consisted of fold-out chairs, so if you are a person who goes to a concert to sit down the entire time, you won't be able to see the show, especially if seated behind me because I go to a concert to have a great time and not sit down and be quiet like I am at a library. The casino on our walk to the theatre seemed dead, so I would not hang out at the casino unless attending a concert. The parking was free too, which was an additional plus. I will return to the theatre to see another show.

    Saw the Catch you on the rebound tour here Saturday night. We saw War, The Whispers and The Miracles. I'm only giving this venue 3 stars because I was very disappointed on how long it took the stage crew to set up after each act it wasted a lot of time. The Miracles went on last & were rushed by an employee saying they only had two minutes left. She came into the stage while they were performing. I'm not in this industry but feel it could have been handled differently.

    I would give this venue a ZERO if I could particularly for an usher and supervisor (NHH - No Hospitality Here). [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you want have a fun time at a concert definately don't go here which is a shame since they have good musical groups perform.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I bought my wife a ticket, center towards the front, because I was going to be out of town but ended up getting a ticket since my plans changed. I tried to get a ticket near her but nothing was available so I chose a seat, like I normally do, off to the side and towards back so when I stand I am not blocking the view of those behind me (makes me wonder sometimes why I even care but I am considerate). One usher decides to single me out, perhaps because I am by myself, older and too excited about the concert (I figure they always assume I am intoxicated or something, but I don't drink and usally get water or a club soda with lime which is what I had this particular time). He decides tell me to stay right in front of my seat and out of the aisle. The second time he tells me that he has warned me twice which then I decided I am going to call him out for singling me out. I tell him I am not in the middle of the aisle like he makes it out. I maybe am a foot to half my body out occasionally mainly because I don't want to bump into the person to my left since the seats are so close. I also ask him why other people in front of me can be out in the aisle and even a group of people in the aisle up by the stage but they don't say anything to them. I am ok with enforcing rules but you can't selectively enforce them against someone because you think they are trouble, I think they call that profiling. I tell him to get his supervisor to come talk to me and I tell her the same thing. I tell her, just to tell him to just leave me alone to enjoy the concert without harrasment. Also, I ask why he had to tell me he warned me twice and what happens on the third or forth time, do you kick me out for having fun? What exactly is the policy for warning me? She of course could not tell me. She asks if I want to be relocated, so I ask her if I can move to an empty seat near my wife or just go stand back in Sections 101 and 102. And she tell me no those are all taken and full. Ok, now I am totally confused, why did you offer to relocate me when you really had no intentions of really doing it? Also, it is not very smart to devulge your security vulnerabilities by telling me that you normally could pull up the security video to verify that I wasn't out in the middle of the aisle, like they made it seem like I was, but then tell me that the camera doesn't cover this area that has a major exit near it. So after that I make sure my right foot stays in my assigned seat area like a good boy and try to forget about it. After Howard Jones in already several songs into his set list, my wife texts me and tell me the two ladies next to her left the concert and says I can move next to her. So I did, and I tell her, I wonder how long until they come in tell me that I have to move back to my assigned seat. It wasn't but a few minutes until security did. At this point, I know they are watching me so I go back to my seat and decided to just sit down and look at my phone (the joy was finally killed and they successfully shut me down). Meanwhile, I watch people move around to different seats as other people leave the concert early and nothing is said to anyone else (people also in aisle). There was one security personnel that my wife and I talked to after the show who was decent (we agreed that my confronting the usher brought extra attention to myself). I figured that the hotel security was told to watch me which really seems outrageous that they would really waste the resouces on me rather than really watching the crowd and facility to protect the concert goers (makes me realize they have their security priorities messed up). I really don't know what happened to the old concert days. I remember in the 80s and 90s it is much different those days, and as a performer, I got to think you have to be disappointed in the lack of energy and enthusiasm from suppression of the audience. A few other things about the venue itself, although it only takes one bad thing to negate any good things. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view from most sections is good, the venue tends to get hot as the evening goes on (the lady in front of me had to sit down and fan herself, but I watched her to make sure she was doing ok), the seats on the floor are too close together making it uncomfortably crowded, the lighting is good but the sound was not correct during the first set that Haircut 100 performed (the lead singer's microphone was either not working correctly or not transmitting to speakers correctly so you couldn't hear him well), free parking, and other staff members taking tickets, screening entry and bartenders were friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, my concert experience was ruined (think twice and hard about attending this venue - $100+ wasted).

    New name, same great theater. Although it is no longer The Joint, this is by far acoustically and otherwise the best concert hall in my city. I have been to countless concerts at this venue and enjoyed all of them. The theater offers seating on all three floors. It can comfortably seat 4500 people. Since Virgin Hotels bought the Hard Rock a while back, they have renovated and updated the bar areas, added luxury suites and added two VIP lounge areas. I had the pleasure to see and experience these updates. The updates are great and love the kick back feeling the theater now emits. The colors used are light and bright and they give off more of a welcoming vibe. I went with a fellow Yelper tonight to see Incubus for my sixth time (yes a big fan of this band) and the show was fantastic. I found it much easier to get a drink as the bartenders moved quickly and efficiently. We had great seats and the sound of course is still phenomenal. For a great concert no matter your musical tastes, this theater will provide an incredible experience.

    Whether you want to call it The Joint or The Theater this venue continues to excel. From Nine Inch Nails or Queens of the Stoneage to The Shins or Wu-Tang Clan expect great acoustics, excellent crowd control, easy in-and-out plus free parking

    It is a pretty small space with about 4500 occupancy I'd like the intimate atmosphere

We knew which seats we were reserving when making our reservation. The venue accommodated two women who wanted to sit in the middle of the 6 person couch, and intended to split our party. Imagine if our party of 4 sat in the middle and split their party of 2. Same difference. Management was apologetic but moved us to table 5. My issue is these are not the front row seats that we paid for and reserved & the venue was not first come first serve. The owner's wife refused to honor our reserved seats and made accommodations for the two women who sat in the middle of a 6 person couch. It would be one thing if our tickets didn't have a seat number.... We've been to this venue at least 6x before coming to Ikons of Rock for the first time.

    A friend and I attended An Intimate Evening with Santana: Greatest Hits Live at the House of Blues…read morein the Music Hall at the House of Blues in Las Vegas on May 24. We were in town to attend the BTS concert on May 23, so this was a last-minute decision. As such, there were only five seats remaining for the May 24 performance. I ended up with two non-adjacent seats in Section 204 for a total of $831.85, purchased through TIcketmaster. We dined at Caramá by Wolfgang Puck, which is close to the House of Blues. We left the restaurant at 6:30pm, thinking we'd walk right in as our tickets "said" 7pm. Instead, we found a long line of patrons winding around the venue, almost to the escalators to the tram station. There was a sign stating that doors open at 7, performance at 8:10pm. Sheesh, had we known this, we could have taken our time in Caramá. After passing through security, we could go to the merch line or into the Music Hall. We opted for the merch line, where we picked up a t-shirt and a bag of guitar picks. Entry to the Music Hall requires walking down a set of stairs to the floor level and then up several sets of stairs to get to the upper level. Section 204 is accessed by walking down from the upper-level aisle. My friend went down to row B, seat 14, which was the aisle seat on her row. I was three rows back, in seat 12, the third seat in from the aisle. Each seat gave us unobstructed views of the stage down below. I really liked sitting in the upper level ... I think we had better views of the musicians than those sitting on the floor. There is a bar at the front of each side of the upper level of the Music Hall so one could get a drink without having to go back downstairs. Each did brisk business throughout the evening. Carlos and his 8-member band played for two hours. He took very little or no time between songs, but he did chat with the audience on two occasions. During this performance, he had a second keyboardist (I didn't catch his name) to the right of guitarist Tommy Anthony. His drummer, Cindy Blackman Santana, is a whirlwind ... She played nonstop during the evening with explosive power and energy. She was amazing! I really enjoyed his concert, maybe a bit more than the BTS concert the night before. Sacrilege? No, Santana has been active for sixty years. He is legendary ...It was a "not to be missed" opportunity to experience one of my heroes growing up. On a personal note: Carlos used a PRS Private Stock 24-fret McCarty Singlecut Trem with 23k gold leaf applied over the maple top. It's a stunning piece of art. PRS made twenty copies in 2016 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Private Stock team. Alas, I want one! If you have an opportunity to see Carlos Santana, do it! The Music Hall in the House of Blues is a perfect venue to experience a legend. Highly recommended!

There were these cool tables that was like a drum sitting on saxophones idk how to describe it but look at my pictures. When we go back I really want to get myself on stage!

I can't stress enough how how nice the entire staff has been each visit. The crispy juicy chicken Katsu is served on a platter big enough for two.

The live music was amazing. It's too bad this band seems to only perform once or twice a year. Highly recommend them! As for the food - everyone is asked to buy at least $25 worth of food, and I would've paid that just to watch the band so it was a bonus. The food itself though is nothing to rave about. I got a $15 small piece of miso black code hand roll with some vinegar sugar rice wrapped in soy paper. I could've made it at home. The Japanese Mille crepe was decent, and I think not bad for the price. I wish they sold non alcoholic fun drinks (mocktails). I would've spent it on that and a dessert. Outside of the food being average and overpriced, the service was excellent! Our server was so diligent and always refilled our waters whenever it went down. I'd come back if any shows interested me but wouldn't go just for food.

    I had a great four-star experience at The Barbershop Cuts & Cocktails inside The Cosmopolitan! It…read moreis such a cool speakeasy concept, cleverly hidden right behind a functioning barbershop front. One of the best parts about this place is that they have live music almost every night, which is awesome. We went on a night when a cover band was playing, and they were fantastic. The venue itself isn't very big, featuring a small stage and a really intimate environment. Depending on your vibe, you can reserve tables, hang out in the VIP seating area, or just stand around the floor and enjoy the live band performing. The energy was upbeat, and the place was already packed and buzzing even as early as 9 PM. My only real complaint was that the music was incredibly loud. It is turned up so high that you absolutely cannot have a conversation with anyone in there without screaming, which is something to keep in mind if you're looking to chat. Overall, it is a great entertainment place with a fantastic vibe. If you want a lively spot on the Strip with great music, this is definitely worth checking out!

    Absolute blast and amazing way to end an amazing night in Vegas…read more Family vacation 2 older teenagers. Decided they would get a night on the town with a show, dinner while wife and I had our fun. Dinner, show (Absinthe) capping with our stop at the Barbershop. I love whisky/bourbon. I love speakeasys. I love live music. Check, Check, Check. So now it's about 11 pm after dinner and the show and the walk. Passed the ski lodge speakeasy with just a few people waiting. Got to barbershop and the line was 20 deep. Ruh Roh. It did end up being 40 minutes wait but we made friends in line (ended up all hanging out inside). We almost gave up to back to ski lodge but decided to not be quitters....so glad we stayed. Love the decor. It was loud (not a biggie) so we got some great ol fashioneds at the bar, then inched our way to center dance floor where we didn't stop dancing to the band til 1 pm when they stopped.....we had so much fun, we (and others) wanted them to keep playing. It did cost me $25 cover (wife was free). I was ok with this. i think before 9 it's free to get in. Amazing night.

    this was my first time at House of Blues, and it will probably be my last because of our server,…read moreAntonio. From the second he came to our table, he had a rude, snarky attitude. My parents and I had a concert to get to, so my mom simply asked if the food would come out quickly. Instead of responding professionally, he said, "This isn't McDonald's." There was absolutely no reason for that comment. A simple, "We'll do our best to get it out as quickly as possible," would have been enough. Then he started throwing in his own unnecessary opinions about how you need an ID everywhere to drink and carry one with you. Nobody argued with him about that. It was completely irrelevant and came across like he just wanted to lecture us instead of doing his job. To top it off, I asked how big the brisket sandwich was, and his response was, "I don't know... a sandwich." Seriously? That's your answer? So while my entire family was eating, I was sitting there with nothing. When my mom asked where my food was, Antonio said he thought I didn't want it because I had responded, "Okay, that's fine," when I asked about the size of the sandwich. That wasn't me saying I didn't want it--I was simply acknowledging his answer. Instead of admitting he misunderstood and apologizing for not putting my order in, he argued with me and insisted that's what I meant. A server going back and forth with a customer over his own mistake is completely unacceptable. At that point, I asked to speak to a manager. The manager was actually great and did everything he could to fix the situation. He admitted that Antonio has been a problem and immediately had my food rushed out, and even took it off our bill. I genuinely appreciate the manager for trying to make things right because he handled the situation professionally. Unfortunately, by then the experience had already been ruined because of Antonio. One thing that made this whole experience even more ironic was that the employees were wearing shirts that said, "Be Nice or Leave." Maybe Antonio should take his own workplace's advice. If anyone needed to "leave," it was him. That attitude has no place in hospitality, and if that's how he treats paying customers, he shouldn't be representing House of Blues. I work in the Forum Shops myself, and I would never treat a customer the way Antonio treated us. Hospitality is about making guests feel welcome, not making rude comments, arguing with customers, and acting like they're an inconvenience. Antonio was rude, snarky, dismissive, and looked miserable the entire time. I honestly don't think someone with that attitude should be working in customer service. This was, without a doubt, the worst service I've ever experienced.

Immersive shows that require audience participation are tough even in Vegas (ex: Disco Show closed down, same premise.) If your time slot group is small, everyone is shy or somehow Southern Baptist and don't believe in dancing, the experience is going to be not as fun. The show starts out as a reggae dance hall with a DJ and a bar. The drinks are super expensive. Make it more affordable and I think people will loosen up. Subsequent rooms have a fairytale quality in retelling the story of Bob Marley. If you didn't see his biopic prior to coming to the show, I'd advise doing that so you have the gist of the timeline of his life. The show is heavily dependent on how much you're willing to dance to the music with whoever else is with you. If everyone stands around while the performers dance around you, it's going to feel like a long show. When I went, I had just arrived back from a cruise to Jamaica maybe 2-3 days earlier. Of course I came back with a terrible sunburn and physically couldn't dance because my skin hurt so bad. Lol of course. I felt bad because I try to be a good sport so the performers don't feel bad if everyone isn't participating, but all I could do is sway. If you don't like to participate in shows, are very shy, don't like reggae this show isn't for you. If you like to dance and you're interested in Bob Marley, I'd go to this. Visited: October 2025

The cast is incredibly talented and genuinely passionate about the music, and the production is beautifully done. The way they mix live music with immersive visuals and audience interaction makes you feel part of the experience, not just watching it. The show takes you into different rooms with each one having its own experience. They even have a few bars set up throughout so you can grab a drink along the way. A must see show in Vegas!
