With more than 40 million annual visitors, Las Vegas is one of the most visited cities in the USA. The city has changed a lot in the last 20 years, the days of cheap buffets and cheap hotel rooms to lure gamblers are numbered.

When is the best time to travel to Las Vegas?

The best times to travel to Las Vegas are February, March, April and October as the temperatures are pleasant in these months.

Las Vegas, the glittering metropolis in the Nevada desert, is world-famous for its spectacular shows and first-class restaurants. In the evening hours, the city comes to life and offers countless opportunities to make the evening unforgettable. From impressive stage shows to exquisite dining experiences, we'll show you the best must-see spots when the sun goes down and the city lights come on.

Tip 1: Monzu

Start your evening at Monzu, where you can not only enjoy outstanding Italian dishes, but also be entertained by live jazz music. Chef Giovanni Mauro not only impresses in the kitchen, but occasionally also on stage. Perfect for a special dining experience.

Tip 2: Absinthe show at Caesars Palace

Experience an original Vegas show! The Absinthe Show at Caesars Palace was voted the "Number 1 greatest show in Las Vegas history". Here you can expect an extraordinary dining experience with small bites in the front garden, breathtaking show acts and, of course, lots of drinks and champagne.

Tip 3: LPM Restaurant

Enjoy a dinner at LPM Restaurant, which impresses with delicious Mediterranean cuisine inspired by the French Riviera. The concept extends from the branding and ambience to the dishes and drinks. A particular highlight is the "Lettre à Coco" cocktail, which is served with a personal, perfumed letter from Chanel No. 5.

Tip 4: The Vault at the Bellagio

Discover The Vault, a secret bar discreetly located behind the live slot machines on the casino floor of the Bellagio. This former casino host's office has been transformed into a luxurious speakeasy-style lounge, offering one of the most extravagant drinking experiences in Las Vegas. The Vault impresses with an intimate atmosphere, exquisite details and an exquisite selection of spirits, including a Rémy Martin Cognac from the 1930s and a Bacardi Rum from the 1950s. You can access this hidden gem by making an online reservation via the link on The Vaults Instagram.

Tip 5: Bellagio Fountain

The Bellagio Fountains are an absolute must-see on any visit to Vegas. This free attraction in front of the Bellagio Resort on the Las Vegas Strip offers a spectacular musical water show in an artificial lake. With 1,214 water fountains and 4,792 lights, the water jets reach heights of up to 140 meters. Sometimes stages are set up on the lake to host events such as musical performances that integrate the fountain show.

Las Vegas in the evening offers countless opportunities for unforgettable experiences. From impressive shows to exclusive dinner venues, these tips will ensure magical nights in the City of Lights.

Book tip of the week: Visiting Ibiza

Mediterranean inspiration for cuisine and concept

With Visiting Ibiza, Sherin Kneifl has produced a book that is much more than just travel literature for professionals in the restaurant and hotel industry – it is a source of inspiration for culinary styles, atmospheric concepts, and storytelling with genuine local color.

The author combines editorial precision with a keen sense of authenticity. She not only guides readers to the island’s hidden gems, but also highlights the ingredients that are relevant to hosts: cultural depth, credible recommendations from locals, visual opulence, and, above all, a recipe section that can be easily adapted to Mediterranean-inspired cuisine.

Whether small plates for the aperitivo area, creative tapas variations, or light summer desserts – the recipes are clearly structured, aesthetically presented, and offer a variety of starting points for creative kitchen concepts. Particularly exciting for chefs: the dishes are easy to scale, can be interpreted with regional products, and are ideal as seasonal specials.

The work is also inspiring for hoteliers and interior-oriented hosts: the book conveys harmonious imagery and narratives that can be wonderfully translated into communication strategies, signature experiences, or event formats.
