Planning a trip around May 2027
Everything on this page is what the box office is actually selling for May 2027, re-read from the sellers every night. Dated acts are listed first, in date order, because those are the bookings a trip gets planned around: a touring headliner plays once and is gone. Below them sit the resident productions, which play most nights of the month and will still have seats when you get there.
Order of booking matters more than timing the market. Lock the one-off you actually came for, then choose a resident show to fill another evening; those rarely sell out and often discount closer to the date. Curtain times cluster between 7 and 9:30 p.m., so two shows in one night only works when one of them is an afternoon or early slot - the calendar above shows the exact start for every row. With an average high around 89°F, May decides how much walking between resorts you'll actually enjoy, not whether the show goes ahead.
A name missing from May 2027 usually means its on-sale hasn't opened rather than nothing being planned - Las Vegas announces in waves, and residencies extend in blocks. New dates appear here automatically the night they go on sale, so a month that looks thin today can fill in later. For everything running year-round, browse shows, concerts and residencies and sports.
Common questions
What's on in Las Vegas in May 2027?
4 dated acts are on sale for May 2027 - touring headliners, limited runs and sports - alongside 16 resident productions playing most nights, about 362 performances in total.
How far ahead should I book for May?
Resident shows usually have seats until the week of your date, so they can wait. Touring headliners, arena nights and anything tied to a big weekend sell out early - book those first and fill the rest of the trip around them.
What's the weather like in Las Vegas in May?
The average daily high is about 89°F. Shows run indoors year-round, so weather mainly affects pool time, outdoor venues and how far you'll want to walk between resorts.
Are these the final ticket prices?
Where a price is shown it's the seller's current from-price for the cheapest date, most with taxes and fees included. Las Vegas uses dynamic pricing, so figures move daily.
Why isn't the act I want listed?
The calendar only shows performances actually purchasable today. A missing name means the on-sale hasn't opened or the run has ended. Residencies also extend in blocks, so a gap now often fills in later.
