WOW has been dazzling audiences with a spectacular show since opening at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas in 2017. WOW features more than 30 international performing artists, acrobats and dancers who twirl, flip, dive and dance. In addition to its 1,000-square-foot liquid centerpiece, the 180-degree circular spectacular captivates audiences with three-dimensional multimedia projections, graceful choreography, picturesque water walls, and hypnotic holograms. The show's watery delights are tied together by the story of a fisherman whose mermaid catch leads him on an amazing journey; his odyssey takes him from quaint city streets to the canals of Venice. Returning to the ocean, he confronts pirates, encounters the doomed Titanic, and explores the lost city of Atlantis. Lifelike marine life greets him underwater, where holograms flicker magically on watery walls. The brainchild of director Hanoch Rosenn, WOW has won four prestigious Best of Las Vegas awards and to date has been seen by more than 2.5 million people.
To connect with WOW - The Vegas Spectacular:
A lot of work goes into the show. It is worth seeing although find discount tickets. Not quite worth the full price tickets. I found a discount code on a Facebook page. All seats are good. Floor tables are great for having action right in front of you. Although better to be up on the next level for full stage view.
This show was amazing I would see it again and recommend it
we had a wonderful time at the show. I would recommend the show to my friends and family if they are visiting las vegas and would like to go to a show.
This is just an OK show. One of the biggest problems is that the stage is higher than most of the seating, so you have to look up the entire time to see what's going on, and you can still never see the stage floor. For having water in the show, that's kind-of a big problem. Also, the seats are virtually next to the stage, so you literally can't get much closer to the performers, and that's a little too close when they aren't wearing much clothing. Second, the performers sometimes come from the back of the venue and when you turn to look, you're blinded by the spotlights. Third, the tables by the seats are not kept clean (ours was all sticky from drink rings) and there's no drink service, even though the tables have numbers on stands on them! As for the show itself, it can't quite figure out what it wants to be. It's fairly amateurish, with clowns and juggling like a circus for kids, but then includes suggestive sexual jokes and poses and very skimpy and revealing costumes which aren't very appropriate for kids. It jumps around, thematically, incorporating movie music and movie-based segments with dancing ("Pirates of the Caribbean," "Titanic," "Singin' in the Rain") with no central theme except that they're all movies. It's a little random. If you can get half-price tickets and have nothing else to do, then it's entertaining enough -- but there are a lot better shows available in Vegas.
I'm going to split my review in 2: The venue and the show. The Venue is pretty bad. seats are very close to each others and not very comfortable. I had more space in a middle seat on a United flight than on this show. The show is good. This is not Cirque du Soleil. if you have been a Cirque du soleil, you need to lower your expectations. It's a bunch of entertainers and acrobats putting a pretty good show. The choreography is not perfect and you will see a few "out of sync" episodes. Overall It was pretty good.
Great show! I took my 15-year old son and we both loved it!
This show is a must see for everyone! We really enjoyed all the performances and the evening was very magical!
The show was FANTASTIC... except the crowd was so horrible that it killed the vibe. I felt so bad for the cast.... they were performing for literally a bunch of basically dead people. The venue itself needs a serious update. THe show itself was a 10/10, but the other factors made it a 5.
What a wonderful experience to spend with the Love of my Life, Carol. Damn it was a great family friendly show .
Great show in an incredibly intimate theater! Just wish the rows elevated a bit more over each other so try and keep that in mind when picking seats. The chart is a little deceiving. That’s the only reason I am giving a 4 star rating. Very talented and VERY strong performers performing incredible feats of strength. Much like Cirque du Soleil except better in that there was one performance at a time so you really got to appreciate their feats close up. Some of the humor was a bit campy but fun. Worth going to!
Great show, top notch performers and flawless execution. The venue is incredible and all seats are good, so no need to only buy up front....
Absolutely amazing show! Must see! I was in awe, so beautiful and exciting!
Worth seeing just for the background projections and effects!! Arrive early to enjoy the venue, listening to calling birds, waterfalls etc, while seeing the tropical setting on the surround screens. Production numbers are great, novelty acts are good. Very enjoyable show.
I had such a great time at this show. There were so many amazing WOW moments. I loved the roller skating act and was on the edge of my seat with the arrow shooting act that was from America's Got Talent. The water bowl act was absolutely beautiful and the showroom was really cool. Our seats were great and parking was a breeze at the Rio (and they don't charge for parking). This should be considered a must see in Las Vegas.
Strange mix of stuff. No transitions. Just a poor example of Cirque shows./
Loved the theater set up. Screens look amazing! Lots of acts that are fun! Took my wife and kids and everyone loved it. There is definitely something for everyone in this.
A little of everything, funny, visual effects, great involvement with water and acrobatics, would watch this show again.
its a good show if you haven't seen any other vegas shows. its a lower budget vegas show compromised of small acts from well known vegas shows. i wouldn't pay full price for it tho.
The best family show in Vegas. Everybody have to see Silvia. Good price. Lovely theatre. Best view from all seats.
This new show is packed with different acts. From dancing, to dancing in water, to acrobats to spinning plates to crossbow sharp shooting, there is so much excitement and entertainment in this show. The only negative thing I could mention is that the seats are just standard cafe chairs and are a little uncomfortable. It would be nice if they would have used a more accommodating chair in the theater. But in all, a mew must see show in Vegas.PHOTOS are allowed but no video.
