Fan Halen brings back the party-time, hard-rocking music of classic Van Halen with a true-to-life tribute to not only the band, but the spirit of the era. Fan Halen sets the stage for a night with Dave, Eddie, Alex and Michael in a transformation that has been described as amazingly authentic.

No-Duh mixes the experience and energy of a live No Doubt and Gwen Stefani concert with nostalgic visuals, stylings and props of the original band, complete with costume changes for a complete high-energy, audio-visual experience.

Rolling the Stones Jerry Greenberg the former president of Atlantic Records has called Rolling the Stones “the real deal.” Having been nominated for the 2009 San Diego Music Awards for “Best Tribute Band,” Rolling the Stones bring the legendary sound of the Rolling Stones that you won’t want to miss!

Led Zepagain takes their audience to a place that not only replicates a Led Zeppelin concert, but also captures the heart and soul of the world’s greatest band. A Led Zepagain show features all of the Zeppelin highlights, from the high-energy electric classics, to the beautiful acoustic works. From the moment Led Zepagain hits the stage, audiences will believe they’re the true tribute to the outstanding band.

Aeromyth not only sounds like Aerosmith but look identical to the legendary band. In fact, lead singer Chris Vandahl is often mistaken for Steven Tyler. Singing classic Aerosmith hits “Walk this Way,” “Dude Looks Like a Lady” and “Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” it’s no wonder they are known as one of the best Aerosmith tribute bands in the world.

Green Date is made up of talented and dedicated musicians who have come together because of their love of Green Day’s classic hits.

The Fremont Street Experience is a five-block entertainment complex located in historical downtown Las Vegas.

The 12.5 million lights of the Viva Vision screen dazzle 365 nights a year and make the Fremont Street Experience a one-of-a-kind venue. With direct pedestrian access to 10 casinos, more than 60 restaurants, specialty retail and free nightly entertainment, the Fremont Street Experience attracts over 18 million annual visitors.
