The show was fabulous - it was extremely lavish - the costumes, the sets, and the performances were all first rate!! Our favorite part of the show was seeing Kristi Holden in the role of Christine, though - she was FANTASTIC!!
I felt more of the love story in this performance than I have in either of the shows I have seen before.
As we purchased these tickets 4 days before the show, we didn't expect very good seats. We were suprised to find our seats were in the 7th row. Not only did we save $100 on 2 tickets, but we had 2 of the best seats in the house. This is the greatest production of "Phantom" ever and the best show you will see in a lifetime. We had a wonderful time and owe it all to Goldstar.
Even though we have seen this production on Broadway when it first opened, and in Toronto when it started touring, we never appreciated it or enjoyed it as much as we did in Las Vegas. We both understood things we had not understood previously.
The theatre at the Venetian was built specially for this musical, which is now trimmed to one act ...no intermission. It flows beautifully, the music is all intact and the set is visually spectacular.
By all means, this production is a must see!
The cast and orchestra gets a Bravo, and Goldatar deserves Bravo Bravo for securing a block of wonderful seats at half the cost to us.
The money we saved allowed us to have a wonderful dinner at Olive's at the Bellagio ...on the water overlooking the Dancing Fountains...also a specacle. We had the best waiter, Russ Bennett...he made the evening complete.
Go to Olives and request his service and you will see what we mean
Tickets were Fantastic...I mean amazing seats. The show is average, I was expecting something tech savvy with unbelievable written all over it..this had one cool tech thing, believable on it and well, is it worth the 50% tickets? Nah, wait until it comes out on DVD, oh wait..it did.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC - A GREAT SHOW. WELL DONE!!!
The performance was absolutely awesome. The seats we had EXCEEDED my expectations. I was pleasantly surprised. My wife loved her first wedding anniversary gift.
This is a great show! We had nice seats and the lady at the box office put my sister, mom and me together even though we bought our tickets seperately. Thank you goldstar!
AWESOME SHOW. GREAT EFFECTS. ACTING, SINGING WONDERFUL.
I'd seen Phantom before, and couldn't imagine how they would make this show any better, but the Vegas production blew any other production I'd seen out of the water. True the show is shorter and certain events in the show are moved to different places, but it worked. All of my favorite music in the show remained. The cast was outstanding, and the set and special effects were the best I'd ever seen. The seats we got from Goldstar were amazing, we were in the orchestra section, just left of the chandelier. Go see this performance!!!
Good production value and great seats from Goldstar. My only complaint is that where I was sitting (near the front to stage right) the orchestra music overpowers the singing.
The chandeliers in the theater does some interesting things, but I won't spoil that.
Visually stunning! A 95-minute production that includes every song from the original. The special effects and cast are sensational!
Nice show!
Great effects... and a nice, intimate theatre... not a bad seat in the house!
spectacular setting, but audio on actors was little off so hard to understand the words sometimes. Overall wonderful, great seats as well
A+ and I hate plays....
you'll like it
The seats where awesome, the evening went beautifully, getting the tickets and the customer service at the Venetian was exceptionally, we had a great night at half the normal cost, giving us more money to gamble with, lol, thank you Gold Star once again you do not disappoint.
This was my 2nd time seeing this show and my first time using Goldstar.
I had a wonderful time seeing this show, however even though it says orchestra/mezzanine when purchasing don't expect to get orchestra seats. Our seats were decent in the mezzanine but of course it would have been nice to get closer seats.
Also if you need to contact Goldstar, be sure to have internet/email handy since they have no direct phone number!
It was an amazing show!
This is a 1 1/2 hr show with no intermission. Staging is elaborate and I had an excellent seat.
One of the best shows in Vegas, must see. Great effects!
The show was fantastic. The theater at the Venetian is spectacular, and the seats (orcherestra) we got from Goldstar were wonderful. 11 rows from the stage on the left side of the theater, 10 seats in. Great price, great tickets, great theater, great show. 10 out of 10! I went to the Venetian box office to pick up the Phantom tickets; no one in line at all, had my tickets in no time. Picked them up 4 hours before the show as recommended.
Great seats. Very different from the Phamtom shows elsewhere because the theatre was specially designed for the Phamtom show. Highly recommended for 1st timers and those who want to re-experience it with more details. Singing is B+ to A-.
This Las Vegas production is a cinemascope version of the Phantom of the Opera. The interior of the auditorium has been made into the 19th century Paris Opera. The added pyrotechnics would render this impossible on Broadway. The best place to sit? If you want to see the performers up close then the Golden Circle/Orchestra section is for you. But if you want to see the entire production, go for the balcony seats. The seats will be at the very rear sides of this big theater but what most of the Golden Circle/ front Orchestra audience won't see is the second chandelier that rises during the overture. Broadway has only one. And they will meld into one chandelier which will drop not onto the stage as on Broadway but truly down to the audience. Those seated in the Golden Circle will not see it and will not know why the audience gasped. Also they won't see the Phantom dangling from the chandelier earlier either.
The text has been wisely trimmed and the orchestration is better than the original. The entire cast was first rate. If you stay at the Venetian, the theater is steps away from the elevators to your room.
The seats from Goldstar Events are on the side of each section as they are available on the Venetian's own site. If you want more central seats I think you have to get them in person at their box office but then they would cost a lot more. I would see it again.
The plot was incomprehensible at times, and you couldn't understand what anyone was singing during a couple of the big group numbers. Had great seats thanks to Goldstar, but didn't like the show at all (and I'm a big musical theater fan!).
My husband and I really enjoyed this condensed version of the production and it's special effects. The music,of course was wonderful. I highly recommend it to everyone who visits Las Vegas and thru Goldstar events you end up with a bit more gambling money.
If you have seen Phantom of the Opera before, there's only a few new surprises, but not worth the $150 top dollar and maybe not even the discounts. The sets are just as amazing as ever and it's nice to see they shortened the show greatly. But even at an hour and a half...it still felt long. The cast is average and the minor charcters were actually better.
I took my daughter for her 21st birthday present and it was not only an awesome show, but great seats and ease in the will call area to pick up the tickets.
THANKS GOLD STAR!!
If you've seen "Phantom" elsewhere, it's still worth seeing the "Vegas-ized" version at the Venetian. It's like "Phantom" on steriods--more lighting and special effects and less "filler"--the show is only 95 minutes without an intermission. My only negative was that the elaborate chandelier malfunctioned at the beginning of the show, so they had to stop the show in order correct it. Hopefully, this is a rare event. Enjoy the show!
Not at all like on Broadway, at least visually. The trimmed-down book and score improves the overall work, and the effects are even more dazzling -- much more dazzling -- than in New York. Top-notch cast, too.
The entire production is marvelous. the voices fo the cast are spectacular. I and my companion were on cloud nine after the play ended and talked about it at least once a day since. Everything was I guess you can tell WE LIKED IT!!!!!Sincerely William D. Noble
Goldstar really came through! Our seats were only 12 rows back, and a bit off to the side, but the view was great. Before entering, I saw late visitors paying $132 for the same area seats we paid $40+ less for.
So far as the show goes, I have one word: Fantastic! I’ve seen Phantom a dozen times in different places, and while I would not say this show was absolutely the best I have ever seen, it is top notch, with standout performances by Kristi Holden (who is unmatched by any of the prior Christines I’ve seen but for Sarah Brightman herself), and Andrew Ragone, who sounds a lot like Steve Barton, whom I have also had the privilege of seeing live in the role.
Anthony Crivello as the Phantom delivers a solid performance, but did not stand out to the same degree as Kristi and Andrew.
Now for those who wonder if a 3-hour show can be whittled down to 90 minutes without cutting something...the answer is NO! However, the cutting is minimal: For instance, the Rat Catcher (which no one understands without reading the book) is not shown, and a few lines are cut or modified from the original show. That said, most time is saved by singing a bit faster than the older shows, and cutting the intermission. I would say that the show still offers 99% of everything the older shows did. I’m real finicky about modifying performances, and can tell you that I was not offended by what has been done in the Vegas venue. Just don’t expect absolute word-for-word faithfulness to the original musical; expect 99% of it.
Some great new pyrotechnics have been added, and a new outdoor facade of the Opera Populaire is in the background to the opening of MASQUERADE.
The theater? Magnificent.
Last comment: Goldstar’s customer service is beyond great. I always get a rapid, helpful, email response to any questions I have.
I will use and recommend Goldstar at every opportunity.
We had really awesome seats. We sat 3rd row from the front. So close you can see the actors faces. I would definately purchase another show from Goldstar
The theatre was awesome! But I caught my self getting bored at times.
I was slightly disappointed that our seats were that far back. I believe that $76 is the normal price for those seats. The show itself was wonderful!
The special effects were amazing. Seeing Phantom in a theater that was built specifically for this show is a whole different experience. Songs have been rearranged a little...so Phantom fans...don't let that disturb you. It's a great show. Our tickets were in a great location in the theater. The theater is small and every seat is great. This was a Thursday night show and the theater was only half full. See on a weeknight if possible.
Having seen the longer version of Phantom in San Francisco and Los Angeles, I was a little disappointed in this truncated (and up tempo, at times) version of the Phantom. Also, the interpretation of the Phantom of the Opera by the lead actor didn't measure up, but that may be because it's hard to escape the impeccable performance of Michael Crawford. Overall, however, the experience is worthwhile, with a theatre that was built for the production and with added scenes and effects that truly make the production a spectacle.
The tickets given to me by the box office were not the ones I paid for. I paid for Orchestra Seats and recieved only Balcony seats from the box office- even with the paid reciept that I brought. The box office refused to contact Goldstar and I had no phone contact number or emergency number to reach goldstar events (which is a big problem). They told me that these were the seats goldstar had requested. I feel I have been scammed! I had to argue for over an hour to get the seat level which I paid for and even then the seats were separated and of poor quality as compared to the ones released even on the same day to other patrons. Shame on you goldstar!
I HAVE SEEN MANY RENDITIONS OF THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA, INCLUDING ONE WITH MICHAEL CRAWFORD AND THIS PERFORMANCE WAS AS GOOD AS IT CAN GET. THE THEATRE SETTING WAS WONDERFUL AND ALL SEATS APPEARED TO GIVE GOOD VIEWS OF THE STAGE. I HAD THE PERFECT THEATRE EXPERIENCE.
This show was over the top! Anyone would love this production! Me, my kids, the wife were loving it. we almost went again the next day to see it a second time. COuldnt beat the Goldstar deal however. The seats were very good (We purchased Orchestra).
Do yourself a favor...go to Vegas and enjoy this show.
That was just plain FUN!
We've seen "The Phantom" in Chicago and New York and this was BY FAR the BEST!!!! (They shortened it in the right spots and it is really a "tight" well done production.)
Ready to go back again!!!
PHANTOM - THE VEGAS SPECTACULAR was a terrific show. The edited 90 minutes version of this piece did not harm it in any way. The leads were the strongest I have ever seen in these roles. Please make certain you recieve the ticket selection you have paid for using GOLDSTAR. The box office tried to give us "Balcony" tickets when we had purchased our seats under the guideline "Orchestra/ Center Mezzaine".
This was a GREAT show, my wife and I loved it. Thanks Goldstar.
Ive seen Phantom in New York, LA, San Francisco and London...the only comment I have was that the woman who played Christine looked a little older that what I have seen...and her voice quite not as 'sweet' and 'young' as I have heard in other performances.
I was amazing, the sets, costumes, and cast! Beautifully sung! I only wish the sound was a tad better, but other than that, amazing!!
The seats were just fine, the show was great and we had a wonderful weekend vacation!
Phantom in Las Vegas was amazing. I saw Phantom in Dallas and this stage and the experience blew this out of the water.
We saw Phantom in Toronto in July 1989, this performance had so much more to it ,that we cannot compare the two. Last nights Phantom was wonderful and we have never seen lighting, staging, performers as exciting, ever in anything. You do people a real service in selling them tickets to the Las Vegas Phantom.
This show was amazing! Truly one of the best shows I've ever seen in Vegas. I am a huge fan of the movie versions and the musical scores. This version was breathtaking. The special effects used in the show are an eyeful and surprises are in store at every moment. It was definitely worth the money and a terrific wonderful investment of time while visiting Las Vegas.
Fabulous show! Incredible theater, scenery, and cast. And I had a great seat, thank you! Can't wait to see it again on my next trip to Vegas. A perfect experience, including the savings on my seat.
Really great, excellent voices and actors... special effects and stunts are really impressive. The only thing I was disappointed about is that it was only an hour and a half (although it covered most everything) and also that the theatre was FREEZING, so bring a jacket, hat, gloves, scarf.. etc :)
An amazing show!!! Excellent singing and performance. Enjoyed every minute of it. Seats (Row BB) are okay but bring your binoculars.
we loved it! goldstar got us great seats as usual and the performance was amazing. members of our group have seen phantom in both new york and los angeles. (i've even seen it performed by michael crawford, the original phantom). we didn't think that it could have been made better, but here we found ourselves picking our jaws off the floor. BE ADVISED: the cast is smaller, but they vamped up the theatrics (with fireworks and hydraulics). the show itself is also shortened because there's also no intermission. so, REMEMBER to go to the facilities prior.
First class all the way. The production was amazing and kept my interest continually. I've seen this show done on Broadway and didn't miss the fact that a few unnecessary scenes and minor songs were deleted. The timing was perfect for a Las Vegas venue.
Great show - the theater setup and cast were excellent. While the sound at times was a bit on the low side for my tastes, I still enjoyed the performances. Unfortunately I had a loud child behind me which was distracting, but that can't take away from the sheer entertainment of the performers and story. The money spent on having a custom theater was obvious and I would see it again!
Spectacular!!!!!!! The best venue as the stage was created for this musical.
How come Goldstar is not carrying it anymore? I would like to see it again.
awesome show, I went back to see it again 6 months later and I am planning on seeing it again.
This performance is perfect in Las Vegas! Great Show!
I really enjoy this show best when it has its own theater. The theater was half empty and they had some technical difficulties the night of this performance, however, my group still had a great time with this classic.
This show was so much fun...a faster pace than the original Broadway production, but very well done.
What more could you ask for....I got the tickets at a very reasonable price, and great show.
FYI. The Theatre at the Venetian is a beautiful venue =)
Enjoy!
Even if you've seen Phantom before - you haven't seen it HERE!
Pleasantly suprising. I've seen Phantom
on Broadway 6 times previously with Michael Ceawford and Sarah Brightman.
The Vegas show is about 40 mins shorter but they did a great job and the theatre is amazing.
If you haven;t seen Phantom, this would be worth a good opportunity especially with discount from Goldstar.
THANK YOU GOLDSTAR!! We Will definitely be using your services again. We had GREAT seats to a spectacular show...we did not know if we were going to have mez or orch but ended up in the orchestra. We paid half of what the ladies whom sat next to us did. You made our trip to Vegas a very memorable one! We live close to Chicago and we will check your site out FIRST for our next entertainment experience.
Thanks Goldstar!

Excellent seats! 10 rows from the stage & off to one of the sides.
What a great way to go to a show! We picked up our tickets 4 hours before the performance as suggested, and got great seats! Ten rows back, right by the center aisle! We will definitely use Goldstar again!!
It is the best play I have ever seen. The performance was spectacular. A must see.
Really great seats! Picking up the tickets was easy as could be. I would buy from Goldstar again. Thanks!!!
Went to pick up tickets right when they were released - or even a bit before - and got front row seats! They were only a bit off to the side, and we had to look up and backward for some of the action, but even that was easier from the side than I imagine center orchestra front row would be.
An amazing show with so many set changes and effects, your head will spin! My wife has seen the traveling production and thoroughly enjoyed this one. Simply not to be missed, and Goldstar makes it that much better.
I have seen Phantom 4 times in Vegas now. I have seen it the touring version 4 times as well. You have to see it at the Venetian no matter how many other times you have seen it elsewhere.
Great price on Phantom of the Opera tickets and the seats were about 7 rows back in the orchestra and really good. The Venetian said we didn't need to pick up the tickets 2 hours early however. They held them in will call until we arrived just prior to showtime! Thanks goldstar!
My parents joined us and paid over $100 per seat the last time they saw it. We had aisle seats with the Goldstar tixs and paid less. This was my first time using Goldstar and I recommend it highly.
I saw Phantom of the Opera on Broadway and I have to say that this production was amazing! The theater is a magnificent replica of the Paris Opera House which makes you feel like you have been transported to 1881. Since the theater is built for this production, the visuals and scenery are breathtaking.
Anthony Crivello’s acting and singing was perfect for the tragically insane character of the Phantom. Kristi Holden & Andrew Ragone were also wonderful in their roles.
The seats we got through Goldstar were excellent. We were in the orchestra/side which allowed us to see the chandelier that is the focal point in a couple of scenes.
FYI – this production does NOT have an intermission. So, you know what you have to do “before” you enter the theater.
Wow....what at show! The trip to Las Vegas was a surprise for my wife. She loves "Phantom" and a friend recommended the show along with purchasing tickets thru Goldstar. The ticket location was perfect in this amazing theatre. Until now, I was not a fan. In fact, I would have probably just went to have dinner at a posh restaurant. We did it all and the show was without a doubt the best part of our trip. Great experience all the way around. I highly recommend this show, especially using the services of Goldstar. We are now off to watch "Wicked" in Los Angeles. Thanks Goldstar! Have fun.
We took my daughter for her 16th birthday and we all had the best time. The music and singing was great, the theatre and set superb. We even waited and spoke with a cast member who was so nice and answered all of my daughters questions. She is a huge fan. The theater was a bit chilly (probably for the cast's sake), so bring a sweater. Best of all, we got a great rate on fabulous orchestra seats with Goldstar. I feel like I stumbled on a goldmine coming across this great resource.
This is the 1st time I was able to "convince" my husband to come with me in an opera. I loved it and he actually enjoyed the show! I'd see it again.
Highly Recommend; the theatre was great, the seats were great and the show was great.
The show was amazing! This is one of the most spectacular shows ever! Thank you Goldstar for making this event affordable with great seats!
The show was awesom3! The seats were great! Thank You Goldstar! Will buy from here again!!!
Lavishly produced from the Broadway original. Performed without an intermission, so it has been shortened from the original. Even more spectacular scenery than original to make up for missing songs.
Very enjoyable.
Excellent process and terrific seats. Will definitely use this service for other events!
Phantom is a must see! Everything about it was astounding, every minute detail. The visual effects and scenery dramatics and pyrotechs were...sigh breath taking. Our seats were good. Second row from the front on the side. We could see their expressions and felt like we were right there with them. I would definitely get my tickets from Goldstar again. This was our first time using their services. Thanks again!
It was breathtaking, if you are in LV go see it!
An amazing show. Eye-popping special effects, broadway caliber performances and an immersive atmosphere make this a must see. I had considered purchasing tickets from another vendor but was concerned the seats might be "too close" to the stage. I'm glad I went with Gold Star. The seats were further back but still excellent. The theater is fairly small and these seats allowed us to experience all the special effects (some of the most astounding do not occur up front on the stage).
I saw the show in Chicago but nothing could compare to the Las Vegas performance.
Excellent show and great seats.
A true Las Vegas spectacle!! The scenery, special effects, and costumes are amazing!! The theatre is gorgeous. A great theatrical experience with a touch of Vegas. A great night of theatre in Las Vegas!
I took my daughter to see the Phantom for her 21st birthday. We had a great time. The show was excellent and the seats were awesome. We had no trouble picking up the tickets at will call and the evening was a complete success.
I have seen this show at least 5 times in other venues, this was by far the best production ever. Great show, great seats. A wonderful evening out in one of the most beautiful show rooms ever.
Outstanding performance, and the Theater and the special effects were marvelous.
From SPECTACULAR seats in the 10th roll, my mother, aunt and daughter watched and listened in awe to a standing ovation performance. The 95 minutes slipped by and suddenly we were on our feet clapping. We recounted our favorite scenes through dinner and decided this was our best three generation event yet! "Three generations" is me, my daughter and mother.
We loved it!!! Phantom was wonderful and we had front row seats thru Goldstar. I can't recommend your site enough to my friends. It made my B-day celebration extra special!!
If you have never seen Phantom, this is a must see. If you have seen Phantom, this is a must see. The theatre is fabulous, the performers great and I saw Michael Crawford as the Phantom a couple of times. Everything about this production is perfect.
Seat was really good! We enjoyed a lot.
had a great time! was surprised we had great seats! great special effects
The theatre was absolutely beautiful and the production was top notch. One of the best shows I've seen in VEGAS.
The seats were amazing.
The show was not as good as I expected it to be. They left out a lot of scenes from the original (so I hear). As my first time watching Phantom the storyline was a little difficult to follow and the symbology behind certain things were not thoroughly explained so the play lacked depth. I felt many things were not explained (eg. symbology of the music box, father's grave, etc.) and I was right--my friend told me many scenes had been left out.
The fireworks used in the play hurt my eyes because the theatre was so dark. The chandelier was not as impressive as I expected.
The reason for the high rating was due to the close seats thanks to Goldstar.
This is my 5th Phantom. I love it.
The theatre was transformed to the Paris Opera House, the show was spectacular, and the chandelier gets five stars!
The abbreviated version of the new york classic was very well orchestrated. Excellent show in a shortened version with great actors in the parts
