If you nd yourself with some spare time between meetings or events, check out a few of the activities and attractions.

Millions flock every year to this city for its variety of must-see concerts and comedy, magic, and dance acts. During the week of the summit, you’ll nd shows unique to the city that are sure to make lifelong memories, including the world-famous Cirque du Soleil.

Inspired by the concept of infinity and the elegance of water, “O” by Cirque du Soleil brings together world-class acrobats, synchronized swimmers, and divers to create a magical, ethereal experience at the Bellagio hotel and casino. High-dive leaps, a dance of fire and water, and powerful choreography are only the beginning for “O,” which is performed in, on, and above water. You can purchase tickets for the 7 and 9:30 pm shows at cirquedusoleil.com/usa/las-vegas/o/buy-tickets.

If dancing and singing is your favorite way to spend the night, you might find yourself in good company.
