Things to do on holiday in Las Vegas
Las Vegas is the ultimate entertainment capital of the world, and while it's known for its casinos and luxury resorts, the city has evolved with many attractions and experiences. Here’s a guide to what’s happening in this vibrant destination:
Attractions & Experiences
- The LINQ Promenade & High Roller: The LINQ Promenade, which features the now-famous High Roller (the world's second-tallest observation wheel), has become a prime attraction. Located near Caesars Palace, the 550-foot-tall High Roller offers stunning views of the city, especially at night when the Strip is lit up.
- Fly LINQ Zipline: For an adrenaline rush, visitors can ride Fly LINQ, a thrilling zipline that flies over the LINQ Promenade at heights of up to 12 stories.
- Helicopter Tours: Helicopter tours are a major draw. Maverick Helicopters offers various tours, including the stunning Wind Dancer Tour, which lands in the Grand Canyon, and the Vegas Nights Tour, perfect for soaking in the neon lights of the Strip before a big night out.
Pool Parties & Dining Hotspots
- Pool parties are a huge part of the Vegas scene, but new venues have emerged. Encore Beach Club at the Wynn and Drai’s Beach Club at The Cromwell are trendy spots to party by the water. For a more laid-back experience, the Stadium Swim at Circa Resort offers six pools and a giant screen for sports fans.
- Dining in Las Vegas is a world-class experience. Nobu at Caesars Palace is a top choice, while Hell’s Kitchen at Caesars, led by Gordon Ramsay, is now one of the most sought-after spots. Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace is a must-visit, with over 500 dishes on offer, including international and specialty items.
- Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris Hotel draws in food lovers with its sophisticated menu and ambiance.
Sports & Entertainment
- Boxing is a main attraction in Las Vegas. The MGM Grand Garden Arena is a top venue for major bouts, but now, the city’s focus is also shifting to UFC events, often held at the T-Mobile Arena. In addition to boxing, Vegas has embraced major sporting events such as the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, which debuted in 2024, and NFL games with the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium.
- Residencies and Concerts: Las Vegas is home to some of the biggest residencies in the music world. Adele and Usher have taken over the Strip with their high-profile residencies at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace and Dolby Live at Park MGM, respectively. While Britney Spears and Mariah Carey’s residencies have ended, new stars, including Katy Perry and Luke Bryan, are lighting up the city. Elton John and Celine Dion have wrapped up their legendary stints, but their influence still echoes.
Shopping & Unique Vegas Experiences
- Las Vegas is a shopper's paradise. High-end shopping is abundant at places like The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace, The Shops at Crystals at Aria, and the Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian. For more casual shopping, Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood offers a wide range of stores.
- Vegas is synonymous with quirky weddings. The drive-thru chapel is an iconic option, and getting married by Elvis remains a classic Vegas experience, though themed weddings have expanded to include everything from zombie ceremonies to Star Wars-style unions.
Weather in Las Vegas
The Las Vegas climate is of a subtropical desert nature. In the middle of the Mojave Desert, heat and humidity permeates the region. There is plenty of sunshine all year round, with the hottest summer months being June to September.
