In this episode of Las Vegas Live, Adam Torres breaks down the top things to do in Las Vegas this week, including concerts, playoff sports, combat sports, comedy, Pride weekend, and live entertainment across the city.
Metallica headlines the week with two more performances at Sphere, bringing Enter Sandman, Master of Puppets, One, and the band's catalog into a production created specifically for Sphere's massive wraparound LED environment.
Las Vegas sports are also packed this week. The defending champion Aces advance to the WNBA semifinals with home playoff basketball at Michelob Ultra Arena.
