Thinking of adding a bit of Western charm and rock ‘n’ roll to your Las Vegas trip? The “Rockin’ Through Time” show at Firelight Barn offers a unique take on dinner entertainment—combining hearty BBQ, lively music, and a family-friendly atmosphere. Whether you’re a die-hard music fan, a lover of good food, or traveling with kids, this experience promises a memorable night out.
What really draws us to this show are three standout features: authentic Western-style BBQ, award-winning band performances by Mama’s Wranglers, and the intimate, family-oriented setting. We also appreciate the value for money—at just $49 per person, it offers a full evening of entertainment plus a hearty meal.
