About Max Amini

Max Amini built a global following with a high-energy, bilingual style that moves effortlessly between English and Persian, mining family, culture clashes and immigrant-parent logic for material that sells out theaters from Los Angeles to London, Sydney and Dubai. Born in Tucson to Iranian parents and raised in Washington, D.C., he turned viral clips and relentless touring into one of stand-up’s most reliable international draws. His Las Vegas stops are events in themselves — expect a room full of fans who know every beat and a set heavy on the improvisation Amini is famous for.

The venue

Encore Theater is Wynn’s intimate showroom at 3131 Las Vegas Boulevard South. Its single raked seating deck means there is genuinely not a bad seat in the house, which matters for comedy: every raised eyebrow reads. The theater sits inside Encore, connected to Wynn by the esplanade of shops, and its lobby bars pour right up to showtime.

Tickets

Tickets are sold through Ticketmaster, the official seller for Encore Theater events, starting at $102.99 as listed on October 27, 2026. Amini’s shows routinely sell out well in advance — the Saturday night of Christmas weekend will go first, so if your plans are flexible, check the Sunday, December 27 performance as well and book whichever seats you want before they thin out.

Getting to Wynn Las Vegas

Wynn and Encore stand at 3131 Las Vegas Boulevard South, at the corner of Sands Avenue on the north Strip. Self-parking and valet are available at both towers; rideshares have signed pickup zones. The Las Vegas Monorail’s nearest stations are a short walk south, and RTC Deuce buses run the Boulevard around the clock.

Make a night of it

Start with dinner on the Wynn/Encore esplanade — the resorts go all-out with holiday decor in late December — then settle into the Encore Theater. Amini’s shows tend to run joyfully long on crowd work, so don’t book anything tight afterward.
