Alexa Park Las Vegas: A Neil Diamond Tribute

ROB GARRETT’S “King of Diamonds Neil Diamond Tribute” Neil Diamond tribute Las Vegas residency continues in the “MODERN SHOWROOMS” at ALEXIS PARK HOTEL. Neil Diamond is one of the greatest and most admired singer/songwriters in pop/rock music history. More than just being one of the best-selling and record-breaking Rob Garrett Neil Diamond Tribute Show near the Strip touring artists ever, he’s also created and performed the soundtrack of our lives — including some of the most famous songs on the planet. In the beginning of 2018, shortly before his 77th birthday, Neil Diamond announced his retirement from performing after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s. However, Diamond’s live performance legacy continues to be preserved for audiences across the globe through tribute artist Rob Garrett, often called “the best of the best”. Ask Google “who is America’s number one Neil Diamond tribute artist,” and you’ll hear the same name. Like his legendary counterpart, Rob Garrett was born in Brooklyn, NY. In the spring of 1974, his parents brought him from New York City to the Las Vegas Valley, where, at age 16, he witnessed his first live Neil Diamond show when Diamond made his attendance-breaking Las Vegas debut at the Aladdin Hotel’s “Theater for the Performing Arts” in July 1976. Garrett went on to see him multiple times across the country—right up until Diamond’s last American show at the LA Forum on August 12, 2017. In 1980, Garrett formed his own band, “Rock n Roll Heaven,” and enjoyed a decade-and-a-half career in Las Vegas and across the nation before transitioning from lead singer of a cover band to a full-time tribute performer dedicated to one of his musical idols. In 1995, Garrett was personally hired by Paul Revere (of The Raiders) to portray Neil Diamond in the “Legends in Concert” show in Honolulu, Hawaii. What was meant to be a limited run turned into a three-year residency. By August 1998, Garrett was back in Vegas and continued to perform with “Legends” for another two years before deciding to go independent. He began a steady touring schedule, building a strong worldwide fan community along the way—earning the title “King of Diamonds Las Vegas.” He continues to perform to sold-out venues nationwide, often in venues fit for superstars. Garrett has also earned several honors, including “Male Tribute Artist of the Year.” “Since he (Diamond) announced his retirement, I’ve felt a strong sense of responsibility to keep his legacy alive for future generations. It’s something I never get tired of doing,” he said. On May 19, 2025 officially proclaimed the date “Rob Garrett Day,” commemorating Rob’s 50 years as a Las Vegas resident and 44 years as a professional Vegas performer. Now in the year 2025, Garrett celebrates 45 years as an active Las Vegas entertainer, with the last 30 years devoted solely to paying tribute to the now-retired Neil Diamond. It has been said that no other tribute artist is so closely identified with the original performer as Garrett, who has appeared at more Vegas stages than any other. Since the June closing of “A Beautiful Noise” (the Broadway jukebox musical based on Diamond’s life story), Rob Garrett’s “King of Diamonds” show has become the only continuous Neil Diamond tribute in the U.S.. Alexis Park Resort Hotel is located at 375 E. Harmon Ave., just ¼ mile west of Paradise Rd..
