Vegas for Christmas



When we think of a holiday vacation, we don't really put Vegas and Christmas together in one sentence unless it also involves a Batchelor party. I'm here to challenge that with 3 reasons you should hit Vegas for the holidays that DON'T include the partying, gambling, drinking, and year-round Vegas events.

HOLIDAY FEAST

There are very few places in the world you can hop around a 3-mile area and have a meal from celebrity chefs and world-class foodie favorites. Not to even mention what feels like "regular" to locals, but is still a top reason thousands flock to the city regardless of the season: ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFETS! For the holidays we go all out and tend to have a price tag to match, but a staple in inexpensive and AMAZING is Ellis Island. Just trust me. Your hotel's cafe will also have reasonable prices! Here's a short list of "OMG you've gotta eat here" on Christmas Night:

  1. THE BUFFET AT ARIA - $53.99 for all you can eat, endless course dinner 12:00-10:30PM (Aria Resort & Casino)
  2. HOUSE OF BLUES - $45 four-course Dinner through 11PM (Mandalay Bay)
  3. BUDDY V's - $53 Dinner through 10PM (Venetian)
  4. BALIWICK - $35 three-course dinner through 11PM (New Orleans)

HOLIDAY VIEWS

Vegas is the high key home to neon lights. Add some larger than life Christmas Trees, snow falling, holiday parades, and an ice rink or two and we are definitely a sight to see! We love flashy things that make you go "WOW" and the sharing of feels. Christmas season is no different. Here is just a small list of places that are perfect for your holiday photos and to get you in a festive vibe:

 The Linq Promenade

Bellagio 

ROCK RINK - Downtown Summerlin 

New York - New York

Las Vegas Motor Speedway



HOLIDAY EVENTS & ACTIVITIES

This list could go on forever! Just this past week, there was a "Nightmare Before Christmas" Themed Holiday party with Skeleton Jack and Oogie Boogie's Lair. It was EVERYTHING. They took over the entire boutique hotel, and this is how I want to live out the rest of my life. We have regular nightclub events with "Sexy Lingerie" themed nights for my ladies who keep themselves bikini ready all year long because, Life! We also have several ice skating rinks, the Cosmopolitan Rink comes with Holiday Watch Parties that are great for the entire family. Container Park also has their festive gear on and is a perfect location to kick it with the kiddos during the day. 

Here's what we have coming up:
  1. Holiday at The Park: Through Dec 30th FREE
  2. Mystic Falls Hourly Show: Sam's Town - January 1st FREE Starts at 5PM
  3. Cowabunga Bay Christmas Town: Through Dec31 (Closed Christmas Eve/Day)
  4. Tournament of Kinds Holiday Show: Through Dec 27th 
  5. Very Terry Christmas: Terry Fator Through Dec 25th
This is the shortest list of things to see and places to be, so if you are coming to town last minute send me an email so I can send you some more things that are going on that are more catered to what you might like. Vegas doesn't really shut down, so expect your usual favorite Las Vegas Strip Venues, Restaurants, and Bars/Lounges to be open and ready to keep your holiday spirits up.

Vegas Bound: Christmas In Vegas 2019

Christmas in Las Vegas is really SUCH a magical thing. The Las Vegas strip sprinkles a little bit of holiday magic all over EVERYTHING, and it is so beautiful! All of our usual attractions, like the Bellagio Fountain bring the Christmas cheer with holiday music playing this season. I'd LOVE for the world to start looking at Vegas during the Holiday season, so here's a couple of things to be aware of, what's going on and my recommendations. SO, Vegas is not really less busy during the Holiday Season.  So don’t expect any holiday discounts or extra space it will be the general amount of crowded...if not a bit more! Buffets and full course meal/dine-in options are going to be a little more expensive b/c they are going to be WAY more decked out than usual. It’s cold as all hell here to me right now it’s like in the 50s all week so bundle up for that. But there are SO many things happening, most things are going to be open and at its usual hours except for like our l...

Why I Meditate

I love meditation. My life has totally turned around since I started taking time to be still and turn inward instead of always focusing so hard outward. There's no pressure to meditation, you can meditate for as long or as quickly as you'd like. You have no one to be accountable to, no one to impress, nothing to do but focus on yourself and take a moment for self-care. I started meditating probably about 9 years ago (don't do that math), but I didn't start doing it regularly until the last 3 years. It gives me the time to STOP reflecting on the day, stop thinking back on things I could have done differently, stop planning for the future and just be present. I practice some different energy healing modalities such as Reiki & the Seraphim Blueprint and use crystals and anything else that vibes with me to get in the zone. When I first started, I loved using guided meditations to "clear my chakras" or just talk me through relaxation and give my ...

Nikki On Vegas: The New Launch

Welcome to the new Nikki On Vegas Blog. I've had some huge changes in my life in the past year and a half that I needed to reflect into my online presence. The New New   Get a similar sweater dress here. Size up for maternity. About a year and a half ago, I was blogging regularly, all over social media and completely content to keep blogging specifically about Vegas and helping people have their best vacations ever. Then I got pregnant! I had a super difficult pregnancy and couldn't keep up with the lifestyle I had before at all. Since having my beautiful, amazing, miracle baby I realized that I have SO MUCH MORE that I want to talk about, share, and learn. It took me WAY too long to figure out how to do that and still provide the Vegas info, reviews, tips and tricks that I love so much. But! I'm back, the Vegas is still here, I've just expanded to much much more.  All of my social media will remain @NikkiOnVegas, so kee...
