I have lost my tickets or did not receive them.
Please click on this link to recover it. |
I have my ticket but they all have my name on.
No problem. We no longer need each ticket to have the attendees name. Each ticket has a unique bar code that is scanned when you pick up your wristband. The bar code can only be scanned once. Please make sure each of you has one of these bar coded tickets. |
How do I cancel my ticket?
Tickets are non-refundable but can be sold to someone else. View our terms & conditions. |
How do I change a name?
If you are unable to attend VLV you can just sell your ticket to someone else. You do not need to change the name on it. |
Can I buy a 1 day pass?
No, we do not offer Day Passes. We may sell some on the Sunday only (subject to availability). You can buy a ticket for just the car show on the Saturday.
The VLV wristband covers you for 4 days. That is the only pass we sell. If you only want to come for 2 or 3 days, you can but it is still the same price. We feel that we priced the wristbands at a low enough price so that even if you only come for 2 days it is not expensive.
If we do not sell out we will sell wristbands on the day. Each day they will gradually get cheaper but will be good for the rest of the event. So if you are coming Saturday for example, you will only pay for Saturday and Sunday.
We can though do a 1 day pass on the Sunday. Some people need to go home on Sunday morning so it releases tickets for that day. They will be $35 each.
WE WILL BE SELLING 1 DAY ONLY CAR SHOW ONLY TICKETS in advance and on the day (subject to availability) |
Do I have to stay in the hotel?
No. You can stay wherever you like. |
Where does the entertainment take place?
All of the entertainment takes place in the Orleans Hotel & Casino. |
What can I do with the wristband?
The VLV wristband covers you for 4 days. That is the only pass we sell. If you only want to come for 2 or 3 days, you can but it is still the same price. We feel that we priced the wristbands at a low enough price so that even if you only come for 2 days it is not expensive. If we do not sell out we will sell wristbands on the day. Each day they will gradually get cheaper but will be good for the rest of the event. So if you are coming Saturday for example, you will only pay for Saturday and Sunday. We can though do a 1 day pass on the Sunday. Some people need to go home on Sunday morning so it releases tickets for that day. They will be $35 each. |
What does the VLV wristband get me into?
Gets you admission to all Viva Las Vegas bands, DJ's, events and music within The Orleans Hotel for the 4 days. Plus admission the VLV Shifters Car Show, all Showroom events such as Burlesque Competition, Burlesque Show, Fashion Show, Slide Show. It also enables you to enter a car into the car show.
If you do not get a wristband, you can buy a car show only ticket but that does not enable you to enter a car in the car show. |
Do I need a pass for the car show?
You may buy a Car Show only ticket on the Saturday. Children 13 and under are free. If you have bought a VLV wristband then you do not need to pay at the gate and have access every day. |
What can I do for free?
If you are only interested in what is free, you are not supporting the event or the scene. VLV is very expensive to put on. This year the number of things you can do for free has been limited. All you can do is visit some of the vendors. Wristbands will be needed for all music venues and The Pool Party this year. You can buy a ticket for the Car Show only on the Saturday. |
How do I get my car in the car show?
Cars must now be pre-registered. This can be done when you book your wristband or it can be done later. Only people who buy wristbands for the Rockabilly Weekend may register cars. There is no extra to register. |
Do I need a pass to see the vendors?
In the upstairs area there will be a few hours each day that anyone can access the vendors. |
How can I find out who is playing when?
Please see the bands page to see playing times of bands. |
How do I enter the Burlesque contest?
You will be able to submit entries in Oct, Nov & Dec. Voting takes place in January. The 8 finalists go to the live competition at VLV. 4 are chosen by a panel of judges and 4 by online voting. |
Cameras at VLV
We have no camera or video camera restrictions at VLV. You can bring any cameras you like to the event and take them into the music venues and the car show. Very occasionally an act may ask not to be photographed or filmed. We ask that you respect their request. Please note though that hotel rules do not allow photography in the casino itself. |
Can Children Attend VLV?
In Nevada the law states you must be 21 to drink alcohol or gamble.
Here are the VLV rules regarding children......
Children 5 and under are free and do not need wristbands.
Children 6 - 12 years old are half price.
We cannot sell tickets to 13 to 20 year olds.
Children must be out of the music venues by 10pm each night.
If you do not want to get tickets for your children they can still access the Car Show on the Saturday and some of the vendors.
In Vegas under 21's may not be near the bars, slot machines or gaming tables. They may only walk through the casino with their parents. If the security see you with a child by a bar they have the right to ask you to leave.
There are babysitting services in Las Vegas who will come to your hotel room. You can find these online or in the Yellow Pages.

I hear you have a new ticketing system.
VLV has a new ticketing system which will be more reliable and will be way faster at checking in. The tickets do NOT need each attendees name but each person will need a ticket
When you buy your tickets online, at the end of the process there is the option to print off your tickets. This enables you to print off your tickets and each one has a unique bar code on it. Upon arrival at VLV we will scan your barcode, check your ID and give you your wristband.
Here are the advantages:
- easier purchase.
- faster checking in.
- easier name changes. You can just sell the ticket or email it to someone else via your account. We do not need the names of each person.
- a lot less hassle.
The disadvantages:
- You will need to bring your bar coded ticket to VLV. Without it you cannot get your wristband.
- You will need to bring your bar coded ticket to VLV. Without it you cannot get your wristband.
Once a barcode is scanned, it cannot be scanned a second time so if you think you can make multiple copies, only the first person to arrive will be successful.
We hope that you like the new system. |
