HOW'S this for a fascinating combination?

See the legendary Elton John and his five-piece band perform the spectacular Red Piano Show - and do it in Las Vegas.

Elton is famous for his passion for performing, and the Red Piano Show includes, as you would expect, many of his greatest hits such as Daniel, Candle in the Wind and Your Song, accompanied by original video footage.

The show will be performed in the new 4,000-seat Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, a state-of-the-art venue with the furthest seat only 120 feet away from the stage.

Las Vegas is one of the most intriguing cities in the world. No matter how many times you have seen it on TV or in movies, this glittering oasis of sound, light and glamour in the Nevada Desert has to be seen to be believed.

The entertainment in the large hotels is in a class of its own with big name stars and everything from ice spectaculars to disco dancing.

Newmarket Concert Travel's five-day break starts with a transatlantic flight from the UK to Las Vegas and transfer to the hotel, a choice of the Four Queens Hotel & Casino and the Circus, Circus Hotel.

On one of the evenings there is a ticket to see Elton John at Caesars Palace, but the rest of the stay is free to enjoy as you wish.

Optional excursions include a flight over the Grand Canyon and a city tour of Vegas.
