What to Expect for a Las Vegas New Year’s Eve

 

Crowds & Road Closures

A big night calls for big crowds. More than 400,000 people are projected to ring in 2024 on the Las Vegas Strip, which is closed to traffic from Russell Road to Sahara Avenue beginning at 6pm. The nearly six-mile stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard turns into a giant block party of people celebrating on the streets and ringing in the New Year. If you’re trying to get around town other than on-foot, the Las Vegas monorail and rideshare options like Uber and Lyft will be your best bet – but expect longer wait times and surge pricing. 

 

Prices

New Year’s Eve is the most popular night of the year to visit Vegas. It’s also the most expensive. Hotels can triple or quadruple their usual costs, cover fees for clubs and bars will be higher, and catching a ride will be more expensive. Many celebrations require a paid reservation in advance, and some drinks and a champagne toast may be included in the reservation cost. Be prepared to drop some money as the ball drops! Experiencing the glitz and glam of Las Vegas while the fireworks go off as you toast champagne is totally worth it, though.

 

What to Wear

Even though Las Vegas weather will seem warm compared to where most people are traveling from, the desert gets cold and breezy at night. Layers are a huge plus when it comes to winter in Vegas. You’ll want to pack your favorite going-out looks and pair them with jackets and anything else that keeps you warm outside. If you’re going to an event, check the dress code to ensure you’re dressed appropriately. Another thing to remember: wear comfortable shoes! With roads closed off and a night of partying and walking, you want to avoid painful feet.

 

Above all else, expect to have fun! New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas is one of the most exciting experiences you can have. Parties everywhere you look, 6 miles of celebration, new friends all around you, larger-than-life champagne toasts, and huge fireworks displays all make for a Las Vegas NYE celebration that will start off 2024 in the best way possible. Be sure to make your party reservations and stay at Circa Resort to be in the middle of all the action. Join us to ring in the new year and have the time of your life!
