1. Siegfried and Roy
The duo were thrilling German illusionists who awed crowds with impressive performances with lions and tigers. Not every day do you meet individuals who entertain using two of the most dangerous animals from the wild, (tigers and lions). Both Siegfried and Roy are deceased, but their legacy lives on from the memorable performances they showcased while still alive. Their show went down in history as one of the greatest that ever graced the city.

He’s known for his magic performances and mystery museum, which is unfortunately unavailable to the general public.

4. Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley is the master of Rock and Roll, and he still causes a stir wherever his music plays, even though he passed on decades ago. In total, Elvis performed in nearly 700 shows in Vegas alone, way more than other musicians at the time. His concerts sold out fast as he was a true legend. As far as headliners go, he is among the top acts, having left a lasting impression from his outstanding performances.
5. Legends in Concert
Legends in Concert is a breathtaking showcase where the audience pays tribute to fallen legends through great concerts. The shows are complete with impersonators who make the experience feel more natural and nostalgic to people who saw the real stars in action before they passed on.
