Top 10 things to do in Las Vegas this week

Golden Knights right wing Mark Stone (61) celebrates with the Stanley Cup after winning the NHL ...

SPORTS

Golden Knights’ opener

If the once-mighty Maple Leafs have taught hockey fans anything, it’s that you should celebrate each Stanley Cup as much as you possibly can. It’s been 56 years since Toronto last won it. With that in mind, be there when the Golden Knights unveil their championship banner before hosting the Seattle Kraken in the season opener. Game time is 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at T-Mobile Arena. Tickets start at $220; axs.com.

MUSIC

Pink

“I’m coming up,” Pink announced on her smash single “Get the Party Started” way back in 2001, and she’s been living up to her words ever since: On her current “Summer Carnival” tour, the fiery pop rocker has graduated to stadiums, headlining her biggest venues yet alongside Brandi Carlile, Grouplove and DJ Kid Cut Up. See them at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Allegiant Stadium. Resale tickets are available at ticketmaster.com.

“Ain’t Too Proud — The Life and Times of The Temptations” runs Tuesday through Oct. 15 at The Smith Center's Reynolds Hall. (The Smith Center)

THEATER

‘Ain’t Too Proud’

“Ain’t Too Proud — The Life and Times of The Temptations” follows the legendary singing group’s rise from the streets to the top of the charts, without shying away from the darkness and conflicts that followed them. If that sounds a bit like “Jersey Boys,” both jukebox musicals share a director (Des McAnuff) and a choreographer (Sergio Trujillo). See “Ain’t Too Proud” at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday through Oct. 15, with additional performances at 2 p.m. Oct. 14 and 15, in Reynolds Hall at The Smith Center. Tickets start at $39; thesmithcenter.com.

MUSIC

Yves Tumor

The last time that Yves Tumor (aka Sean Bowie) was in town, performing at the hip-hop- and R&B-centric Day N Vegas festival in 2021, he rocked thigh-white boots, long black gloves, a ball cap that looked as if was adorned with railroad spikes, and a halter top designed to look like a business suit. And his sound was as singular as his look, an overdriven pastiche of amps-to-11 glam rock, post-punk and funk overlaid with a noisy sheen of shoegaze-y feedback. Don’t miss his Vegas return at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Portal at Area15. Tickets start at $29.95; area15.com.

MUSIC

Unida

Desert rockers Unida specialized in fuzzed-out grooves seismic enough to register on the Richter scale. Founded in the late ’90s, the on-again, off-again band once featured former Kyuss singer John Garcia on the mic. But having reunited last year, the group now features Mark Sunshine on vocals. See them at 8 p.m. Friday at Count’s Vamp’d, 6750 W. Sahara Ave. Tickets are $15; eventbrite.com.
