Yes, they used to have the winner headline a show in Vegas for a few weeks but they changed that this year and the winner gets to "headline" the "America’s Got Talent Live" tour which is hosted by Jerry Springer and one of the stops is in Las Vegas. This is the first year for the tour. It will be at Caesar's Palace in Vegas on October 8. Nick Cannon stated that a couple of weeks ago on the show and it caught me by surprise and caused me to look into it by searching the web quite extensively..

The big prize is the million dollars but they only pay out 25K per year for 40 years. The show is really all about the exposure it gives them to jumpstart their careers. Terry Fator, for example, signed a 100 million dolar contract with The Mirage after winning the show a couple of years ago.
