Eliane's 40th
Birthday on Shabbat — celebrate gently by day, then dinner & cake after nightfall (~5:13 PM).
Day plan
Morning: hotel breakfast from Friday takeout · optional Chabad service · pool / rest · suite birthday moment · Havdalah · Crossroads or Mystère.
Nice dinner (diet-OK)
After Shabbat ends Sat ~5:13 PM: Crossroads Kitchen (fully vegan) at Resorts World — reserve. Or Sunday: CATCH (fish) at Aria / Nobu (fish-veg) for a dressier night. Keep meat off the table unless at a ✡ kosher restaurant.
Family-ok show
Cirque Mystère at Treasure Island — long-running, all-ages friendly, Fri–Tue typically. Or Cirque O (Bellagio) ages ~5+. Book ahead for Sat night after Havdalah or Sun.
Adults-only evening option
If one adult stays with the child: Nobu, a spa evening at Canyon Ranch (Venetian; 18+ full access), or a later Cirque show. Coordinate babysitting / hotel kids club if any — verify Venetian options.
Spa / pool
Canyon Ranch at Venetian (day pass Fri–Sun ~$150 class of pricing — confirm). Venetian pools for the family Saturday afternoon (Shabbat: no booking-dependent cabanas if you avoid transactions — pack towels, stay on property).
Photo spots
Venetian / Palazzo atrium & gondolas; Bellagio fountains (walk or short monorail/Uber); Sphere exterior at night; Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign (south Strip — Uber, go early for fewer crowds).
