Of course, we cannot skip over the daily shopping around town. The Cowboy Channel Cowboy Christmas has taken over the South Hall, Levels 1 & 2, at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The Cinch Western Gift Show is in the South Point Exhibit Hall. At the Plaza Hotel and Casino, the Downtown Christmas Expo is another great one to catch. Of course, the Stetson Country Christmas at the Rio Las Vegas is open daily. Last but not least, catch the Roper Cowboy Marketplace Gift Show at the Horseshoe Las Vegas.
