Las Vegas has earned the title of the sports and entertainment capital in the US, with the Super Bowl being just the latest event. Tickets have been on sale for a while, and they’re selling fast. In preparation for the big day, event organizers have several events to keep fans, residents, and tourists in the city excited. Events during Super Bowl week in Las Vegas 2023 are:
