Hello Vegas people

Hi.. I am new here.
I have been to Vegas 3X's, but not in a few years and am planning a big trip with family,friends & coworkers.
The last time I was there, Aria, Cosmo, etc. was to open later that year.
I have a fun family, we work together in a landscape/big tree removal business and my closest friends(all girls) work with my crew...we get to climb where the guys can't...lol
This is to celebrate our 25th successful year. We are planning a March visit..no dates set yet and would like some suggestions on when to go, where to stay, eat party.

There will be around 30 of us, ages 25=55. We all drink, dance and love to party.
We want to stay on the strip, but don;t all have to stay at same hotel. Where we eat isn't as important as where we can all eat with little hassle. Most meals will not be the whole group.
We want to make this a 4day/3nt during the week trip as we are thinking much better deals than weekends.
Do you all know of any shows that cater to large groups?
Any other suggestions would be most appreciated.

I think some of the programs like Total Rewards offer perks for people that book groups.

I think the Cosmo offers something for everyone in the age groups you mentioned and it is a fun place. If you've been to most of the older hotels on the strip then give City Center (Aria, etc.) a good look and make the most of your trip by updating your Lasvegas fun portfolio.

Bring lots of money. Bring lots of Brioschi.

On thing on picking dates - since your dates are flexible, take a look at rate calendars to help you choose dates based upon best rates. Here is a link for Monte Carlo. Click on the calendar icon to the right to see the rate calendar. You'll see $30-$40 swings per night from one week to the next during March. March is basketball season with the March Madness going on which brings lots of sports fans on the relevant weekends and runs up prices (plus making lines longer and table minimums higher).

The Price Is Right show is fun with a big group. You have a good chance of someone making it to the stage and there is lots of interaction with the audience.

Listen to PJ on anything he says. He's better than tripadvisor and very friendly as well.

Oh,and also, welcome to the forum,lots of good folks here.

If you do want to have a group dinner, many of the restaurants in Las Vegas can easily accommodate 30 of you with an advance reservation. For a fun & casual location I'd suggest you look at Margaritaville. They have a number of options for groups, from cocktail parties to group breakfasts, lunches or dinners. It's casual with music pretty much everyone in your age ranges will enjoy.
Margaritaville - Group Event Planner

As far as shows - for group tickets, most of the casinos with the headliner shows have a group sales phone number where they can arrange seating together and occasionally even discount the per ticket price for larger groups. You can find the phone numbers on the event ticket order pages on each casino's website. Groups of 20 or more are what they usually seem to deal with for this.

This might be worth a look.

Thanks for the suggestions. We defiantly do not want to go during March Madness. The Price is Right sounds like fun.
I would love to stay at one of the new hotels at City Center. I have read some of the trip reports here and love the pics of the new property, so I will be pricing them. We have 4 of us working on info and then we will make some decisions.
I am open to any and all suggestions.
