Super Bowl 58: Vegas entertainment from Adele and Zach Bryan to Gronk and Shaq parties
It doesn't matter if you snagged one of the most expensive Super Bowl tickets in the history of the game.
It also doesn't matter if you care at all about the San Francisco 49ers or Kansas City Chiefs or any of the ancillary storylines following their Feb. 11 clash at Allegiant Stadium.
This is Las Vegas. You'll find something to do.
That would be true on a random Tuesday in May. But this is Super Bowl 58, and the entertainment capital of the country will be overstuffed with blinding marquees, lavish VIP parties, endless bottle service and troves of DJs. Which also sounds like a random Tuesday in May. Just figure the Vegas of it all will be amplified. A lot.
Here's a look at the events filling up the city during Super Bowl week (all times are PT), and – good news for those of us without deep pockets – some of them are even free.
