Las Vegas is a special kind of resort city. In the city, you get The Strip (along with the Sphere); on the outside, you get the vast Mojave Desert with its nostalgic attractions. In the past, people visiting Las Vegas would do so with the phrase in mind: “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.” Today, people arrive phone in hand, ready to share this unique place with the rest of the world.
If you are a TikTok content creator, Las Vegas is the ultimate destination. Forget fountain shows and elevator rides; this city is filled with experiences to get your audiences oohing and aahing. And best of all, the more Las Vegas content you create, the larger your following will become.
So, if thousands of followers are what you are after, check out these experiences and attractions to draw your crowd on TikTok:
Jam to Phish Inside the Sphere
If you missed U2’s incredible run at the Sphere, get to Vegas to catch one of the many artists there, like Phish. The band’s song list differs each night and will use special effects to ramp up the atmosphere. You can start filming for TikTok outside when you get the Sphere in view and continue the party inside with live music and fun.
There is a lot of global interest in the Sphere because so many people will never see it in person. Be sure to get all possible angles of the Sphere, inside and out.
If a jam band and a giant interactive concert venue are not your thing, you can always book a spot at the Sick New World festival. This festival features System of a Down, Alice in Chains and Slipknot. Nothing will if this does not draw a rocking crowd on your TikTok.
The Neon Museum
If you are creating a series of TikToks about your Las Vegas trip, you should visit as many attractions as possible. This way, you can appeal to many more people and grow your following with each post.
The Neon Museum (or Neon Graveyard, if you will) is a fantastic starting point. The so-called Neon Boneyard, which stretches over two acres, is filled with ‘rescued’ neon signs no longer used. These include the iconic Golden Nugget, Caesars Palace and Moulin Rouge Hotel.
There are guided tours, which give you ample time to get your TikTok videos done. It is best to go at night when special lighting makes the signs glow anew.
Omega Mart
If you are relatively new to TikTok and do not have a large following, you should boost those numbers before heading to this next attraction. You can get more followers in no time with the help of Celebian. The Celebian platform offers a well-rounded approach to establishing and growing a TikTok audience.
Before you enter the Las Vegas Omega Mart, you can purchase TikTok likes, views, or followers packages on the Celebian website. You can make things even easier by opting for an automatic likes or views package. When you post content about the mind-bending Omega Mart, the likes and views will automatically pile up.
This is an exceptionally user-friendly way to get the needed engagement and grow your audience organically. Celebian goes one step further to make growing your TikTok audience even more of a breeze. You can now subscribe to the platform’s Make It Shine podcast on the go. This podcast offers tips and tricks on growing TikTok audiences and is available on all major platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Getting back to Omega Mart, you will want to pull out your phone and keep it on for this one. Here, a door or product leads to an Alice in Wonderland-like experience with immersive art installations and hidden bars everywhere. Keep an eye out for unusual customers and creepy employees.
The Omega Mart is a unique Las Vegas experience your followers will love getting a glimpse of.
Stratosphere Thrill Rides
You can take your followers along for the ride at the Strat Hotel. Hold tight as the Big Shot launches you 160 feet in the air at 45 miles per hour. You will glimpse the Las Vegas Valley before shooting straight down the tower again. Of course, someone will have to film you from the ground.
The X-Scream rollercoaster will have you teetering over the edge of the Strat Tower at 866 feet. Then, you will be propelled headfirst 27 feet over the edge and dangle there for a few heart-stopping moments before it happens again. You cannot take your phone on these rides, but you can get a friend to film you from below. If the zoom function on your phone is weak, use a camera to get quality footage for TikTok.
Evel Pie
No trip to Las Vegas is complete without a visit to at least one pizza joint. Evel Pie is an Evel Knievel-themed restaurant that brings the 1970s back in a big way. Your TikTok followers can join you for an old-school pizza and reaper contest, all while rocking out to live music.
If you are up for trying the ‘hottest pizza in the world,’ get footage of yourself trying Evel Pie’s Reaper pizza topped with Habanero sauce, chili pepper mozzarella and sliced Habanero peppers. The restaurant literally sets the pizza on fire before delivering it to patrons.
Cirque du Soleil
Cirque du Soleil is another attraction that will go over very well with your TikTok audience. The show tickets are not cheap, but you can get into a free pre-show. Otherwise, you will pay around $69 for one of six shows of your choice in 2024.
There is the Beatles LOVE show, which uses a Grammy-award-winning soundtrack as the backdrop for acrobatics and other jaw-dropping acts. If you are from New York, you can take your followers along for the Mad Apple ride, which includes pre-show games, dancing, comedy and music.
If you really want to wow your audience on TikTok, the Michael Jackson ONE show is a must. The show’s surround sound brings out Michael’s vocals like never before, combined with electrifying dance and visuals.
Keep your phone on as you go back in time with Michael Jackson’s songs, and take your TikTok followers on a nostalgic trip.
