The legendary Rob Garrett’s “King of Diamonds” Las Vegas tribute show continues in the “Modern Showrooms Las Vegas” at Alexis Park Las Vegas Hotel.
The legendary Neil Diamond is one of the best-selling and most iconic singer/songwriters in pop/rock music history.
Besides being one of the biggest selling and most successful live artists ever, he’s also created and performed the soundtrack of our lives — including some of the most unforgettable songs on the planet.
In January 2018, shortly before his 77th year, Neil Diamond announced his retirement from performing after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s.
However, Rob Garrett Neil Diamond Tribute Show Vegas residency Diamond’s concert legacy continues to be celebrated for audiences worldwide 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 idol, Rob Garrett was a Brooklyn, New York native.
In the spring of 1974, his parents relocated from New York City to the Las Vegas Valley, where, two years later, he witnessed his first Neil Diamond concert when Diamond debuted in Las Vegas to record crowds at the Aladdin Theater for the Performing Arts (now “PH Live”) in July 1976.
Garrett went on to see him another 16 times across the country—right up until Diamond’s final U.S. concert 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 deciding to move from cover band frontman to a tribute artist dedicated to one of his childhood heroes.
In 1995, Garrett was personally hired by Paul Revere (of The Raiders) to portray Neil Diamond in the Honolulu production of “Legends in Concert”.
What was meant to be a short engagement turned into a three-year residency.
By August 1998, Garrett returned home to Las Vegas and continued to perform with “Legends” for another couple of years before deciding to create his own tribute production.
He began a busy tour circuit, building a large and loyal following along the way—earning the title “King of Diamonds Las Vegas.”
He continues to draw packed houses nationwide, often in venues that typically host major artists.
Garrett has also received multiple accolades, including “Male Tribute Artist of the Year.”
“Since Neil Diamond retired, 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 19th officially proclaimed the date “Rob Garrett Day,” commemorating his 50 years living in Las Vegas and 44 years as a professional Vegas performer.
Now in 2025, Garrett celebrates 45 years on stage in Las Vegas, 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 played in more Vegas rooms than any peer.
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 active Neil Diamond tribute production in America.
Alexis Park Hotel Las Vegas is located at 375 E. Harmon Ave., near the Las Vegas Strip.
