The opening announcements, as read aloud by the entire audience, will have you laughing even before the show. Watch for special volunteers, too.

WARNINGS: Please be aware that Blue Man Group shows are loud and extremely percussive, and therefore may not be suitable for very young children (the website recommends attendance for three years and older). Also, strobe lights are used, so anyone with epilepsy, migraines caused by bright lights, or other light-induced medical conditions should research the show carefully before buying tickets.

TICKETS: You can get tickets as early as 120 days (about four months) ahead to ensure good seats. The Blue Man Group website has plenty of online discounts, including specials for children, AAA members, military members, students, Las Vegas residents, and more. You can also find tickets and information on the Venetian website, which features its own ticket packages.

The poncho section takes up the first five rows of the orchestra seating and is for audience protection. The theater show can be rather messy and materials sometimes leave the stage, but if you dress casually and use the provided poncho, you'll be fine.

NAVIGATION: If you plan to stay on or near the Strip (Las Vegas Boulevard), do not rent a car unless it's absolutely necessary. You can use any number of shuttles from McCarran Airport, which will take you to most Strip hotels. If you have a rental or your own vehicle and insist on driving, try to avoid the Strip, which is usually swarming with other drivers. Take the back roads instead.

When you're ready to go to the show from your hotel, walking to the Venetian is more entertaining and less frustrating than driving. Plan for some sightseeing along the way, or take the monorail that runs behind the hotels on the east side of the Strip, to the Harrah's/Imperial Palace station.

No matter what entrance you use to get into the Venetian, give yourself plenty of time to navigate through the building. Like most big name Las Vegas hotels, the Venetian is huge, so study a map of the building for efficient travel through its corridors. The theater doors open approximately 45 minutes before each show.

TIP: There is no intermission during the one hour and 45 minute show, so plan accordingly.

== Summary ==

Blue Man Group is about as unique an experience as one can get in a live stage show. Eclectic, strange, humorous, and loved by critics and audiences alike, the blue men are sure to entertain from start to finish.
