When To Go

Las Vegas never sleeps – or closes – and a week rarely passes without some major event taking place. Peak season is generally spring and fall, when the weather is best and generally highest prices ensue. You’ll get the biggest discounts in off season – summer – when a USDA prime Porterhouse would broil on the sidewalk. All bets are off during major conventions and sporting events, when room rates skyrocket. Biggies to avoid include the Consumer Electronics Show (January), National Association of Broadcasters and World Series of Poker (April), Comdex (November) and National Finals Rodeo (December). Remember that official rates quadruple during holiday breaks and nearly double on weekends. It pays to look for constantly changing internet specials; you can browse our selection or click here for deals. Barring no special events, you’ll get the best bang for your buck by visiting in May, October and early November, months that offer mild temperatures and generally better rates.
