We arrived early and enjoyed the Casino in order to avoid the long line of people arriving just before the show. Smart plan right? Not so much :/
We had planned on eating at the Banco but were unable to make reservations ahead of time and the wait was over an hour by the time we got there that we would not have had time to eat in time to make the show so we had pizza at the bar downstairs. It was not ideal, but it was hot and fast and our server was wonderful.
Fast forward to 20 minutes before the show, we headed towards the entrance of the theatre. When we got there, we were told that this entrance was no longer in use and we had to go by the inside the Casino due to Covid. There were no posters or people telling us this once we were in, there was someone at the door directing traffic for those coming right before the show, but if you came in early you had no way of knowing. So we had to get back in line and show proof of vaccinations again, then hurried to the other entrance of the theatre.
We get there and our electronic tickets show up as "already used" which they obviously weren't! We were then advised that nothing could be done about it at this entrance, that we had to leave the Casino AGAIN to make our way to the ticket office were the "usual" theatre entrance is, get our tickets printed, go through the vaccination check AGAIN, to rush back to the secondary entrance of the theatre... Needless to say we were late and very annoyed by the time we were seated.
The show was GREAT though!
