Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
So what on Earth is Blue Man Group all about?
BLUE MAN GROUP performances are euphoric celebrations of human connection through art, music, comedy and non-verbal communication. Since the Blue Men don’t speak, BLUE MAN GROUP transcends language barriers and is universally appealing to a broad range of age groups and cultural backgrounds. Each performance of BLUE MAN GROUP is unique, and audiences never experience the same show twice!
Is the show in English?
Since the Blue Men don’t speak, a Blue Man Group performance has universal appeal across the broadest range of ages and cultures. Each Blue Man Group performance is a joyful, high-energy, insanely inventive celebration of humanity and how we connect: through art, music, comedy and nonverbal communications.
Is the show the same in each location?
Since debuting in New York in 1991, Blue Man Group has expanded domestically - to Boston, Chicago and Las Vegas - as well as internationally, with a residency in Berlin. We’re frequently touring North America and the world too. At the heart of each show, three Blue Men create a connection with the audience and an experience unique to that performance. The shows all feature and follow common yet iconic themes. But moments, like musical nuances, vary from show to show and are continually revitalized with fresh stories, custom instruments, new music and renewed sensory-stimulating graphics.
What’s the running time of the show?
Each Blue Man Group performance typically runs 90-105 minutes with no intermission. You and your group might like to stick around after the show too, and enjoy a little extra time meeting the performers!
Are performance times customizable?
Some are, yes. Performance times can be adjusted for your group’s buyout or private performance. In select cities, such performances can also be customized for length.
What are the benefits of buying as a group?
Groups receive exclusive discounted rates for many performances and add-ons. Groups also avoid online service fees and can get priority booking before dates become available to the general public. What’s more, in each city, a dedicated Group Sales team assures personalized service and guidance on any question or issue, for a quick and easy experience that’s as fun as the show itself!
How many people make up a group?
Unless otherwise specified, you qualify for a group rate with a minimum of 10 tickets purchased. Anything less is technically considered a “gaggle” and isn’t eligible for a discount.
For Boston: You qualify for a Mini-Group rate with 8-14 guests, and deeper discounts are available for groups of 15 or more.
What’s the capacity at the Blue Man Theater at Luxor Hotel & Casino?
Our theater capacity is 830 people. Check out our customized theater tour. If your group is larger than 830 guests, enquire about corporate event performances here.
Do you offer accommodations for those with special needs?
Yes.The theater is equipped with ADA compliant seats in all ticketing categories. Upon request, we offer printed show scripts to assist those who have visual or aural impairments. Please make sure to mention any special needs when making your group reservation to ensure accommodations are arranged in advance.
Is Blue Man Group suitable for children, and what are your policies for children attendees?
The recommended age for children is 3 and up. Please be aware that all patrons, regardless of age, must have a ticket. Lap-sitting without a paid ticket is not permitted. Blue Man Group encourages young children to use hearing protection. Should parents or guardians not bring their own, hearing protection is available from the Front of House staff.
Is group parking available?
Yes. But firstly, our bus drop-off/pick-up area is at the NW corner of the property, off Reno Ave. Buses can access Reno Ave. from Frank Sinatra Dr. or Las Vegas Blvd; Frank Sinatra Dr. is preferred for turning into the 6-bay area. Please email our Group Sales Department at lvgroups@blueman.com for more information on bus parking. For general guest parking, Luxor offers paid self-park and valet. See here for more information.
Do you offer additional packages or experiences beyond group tickets?
Yes, please SEE HERE for more information.
Do I have to pay for my group tickets immediately?
Yes, but our booking agreements, when applicable, include an attrition clause. Any sales within 30 days of the performance are final. Pending availability, additional seats can be booked within the 30-day mark, but are not guaranteed to be with your original seats. Group rates are inclusive of tax and service fee. No surprises!
Must I order and distribute group tickets or can I let my people order individually?
For the sake of the quality and proximity of your group seats, we do ask that seats be ordered as a whole. They can then be mailed and distributed, or picked up at the theater using the convenient Will Call line.
Will group tickets be mailed?
Because we cannot replace lost or stolen tickets, we recommend the tickets be held at the Box Office until pick up time - no later than 30 minutes prior to the show. If your group must have the tickets prior to the performance and you are unable to pick them up in person, please contact your Group Sales Representative for arrangements. Please use the convenient Will Call line.
