If you’re looking for a fantastic night with hilarious medicine for your soul, go to the Bill Burr Show!
About the show
Bill Burr is known as a hard-working and persistent comedian who gained lots of recognition over his career. He has an unmatched style of comedy, combining unflinching honesty, witty insights, sharp social commentary, and connecting crowd ability.
I give him a thumbs up, as he used both relatable and absurd experiences to deliver funny moments at his own comedic rhythm. His rants started from simple observation and developed into hilarious tirades. The topics were various, from his own life to larger societal concerns.
What I admire about Bill is his unapologetic way of performing on the stage. It seems he doesn’t care what people think about him but does his best to get his job done. Bill Burr is the one who is not afraid to push boundaries and to address complex (and sensitive) topics head-on.
Yet, note that his jokes are not preachy or overly cynical, creating a unique, captivating comedy show. Bill’s distinct humor and unparalleled improvisational skill allow him to tackle sensitive issues in a funny way.

What we like
- Elegant rants on various topics: Bill Burr knows how to create layers of criticisms on a wide range of issues, including marriage, modern culture, and political correctness. I think he has quite broad knowledge of each aspect and explores its absurdities thoroughly to turn them into elegant rants through his sharp tongue and bold opinions.
- Quite clean content, conversational style, and act: I can see he tried his best to keep his show away from gratuitous profanity (though, for some audiences, he might fail, sometimes). I like his conventional delivery and casual style. His show is no longer a performance but a chat with a friend.
- Bill’s improv and dialogue with the audience: Bill riffed off his audience by his improvisation. Without following a performing routine but having conversations with the crowd, he made every situation that happened on the stands become comedic gold.
What we don’t like
- Jokes about transgenders and some caustic topics may not be for everybody. I still prefer clean jokes without mocking anybody. Stand-up comedy is for having blasting moments but not pinching people’s nerves.
- The security is too strict, causing a slow entry process. If you see a line of people waiting to enter the event, you may want to give up. I know the rule is the rule, but the process for everybody to put their electronic devices into the pouch takes too long. Plus, it’s really a distraction for others when security spotted somebody using their phone and came to them during the performance.
- No recording is allowed, which means the performer can say whatever he wants. I actually realized this fact is more serious than I thought. I know it’s democracy and free public speaking, but it does not mean that offending people is allowed. But without recording, the performer might have gone on with his own thoughts without caring about the feelings of the audience.
Is Bill Burr Worth Watching?
If you want to see Bill Burr in person, go ahead. But he’s still far away from being a successful stand-up comedian, as he sometimes ventured into unrelatable jokes, which left the audience in dull moments. I’d say he’s better as a podcaster.

Bill Burr Tips & Tricks
Where To Sit
Aim at the center and front row if you want to see Bill Burr closer. But for me, any row, even the balcony area, is fine.
The ticket price starts at $69 plus tax and fees. So, it all depends on your budget.
Where to see the show
Attend the show at:
Dolby Live, Park MGM Las Vegas
3770 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, United States
How To Get There
You can choose these bus lines to go to Dolby Live:
- 119, 119 Simmons / Koval Southbound
- 201, 201 Tropicana Westbound
- DEUCE, Deuce on the Strip Southbound
There are nearby stations within walking distance:
- Wb Tropicana After Koval (8 min walk)
- Nb Las Vegas at Polo Towers (13 min walk)
- Eb Reno After Las Vegas (15 min walk)
Monorail LVM also can take you to the destination. But I don’t suggest you take this option as the nearest monorail station is Las Vegas Convention Center Station, which takes nearly 1 hour walking.
If you don’t know the road so well, the easiest way to Dolby Live is to take an Uber taxi. The price may be high, but it can help you reach the place without issues.
How To Book Ticket
You can book tickets online on trustable sites, such as Vegas or Ticketmaster.
After choosing a suitable date and time, you can select a seat according to your preference and budget. Price will be shown for each seat.
The last step is to proceed with payment and get ready for the show.
Other restrictions
There are restrictions on using phones and other electronic devices. Since it’s a phone-free event, no phones, smart watches, or accessories are allowed.
Once you arrive at the venue, you’ll need to put all electronic devices into a Yondr pouch. You can have the pouch with you all the time but can’t open it till the end of the show.
If you need to use your phone, go to the designated Phone Use Areas. After use, it will be resecured in the individual Yondr pouch so that you can enter the show again.
If you’re caught using phones, smart watches, or accessories during the performance, you’ll be asked to leave the venue.
