The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil will be the new Closing Banquet Show at the MCAA Convention.
Since the printing of the MCAA brochure, the MCAA has had to change the Closing Banquet Show. Wayne Brady will not be doing his stand-up show at the venetian during our convention. Therefore the MCAA has selected The Beatles Show "Love" being held at the Mirage for the replacement show.

The dinner will begin at 6:00 pm in the Venetian/Palazzo ballroom area (check monitors for room name). The dinner will be immediately followed by a short roast to current President Tom Daniel.

After the roast, tickets for the show will be distributed. The group will be given an opportunity to go to their rooms and change before the "Love" which will begin at 9:30pm in the Mirage. The group will meet in the Venetian lobby at 8:50 pm and walk over to the Mirage at 9:00 pm sharp. The Mirage is directly across the street from the Venetian. No busing will be provided. If you miss the group departure, please meet the group at the Mirage no later than show time 9:30 pm.
