These Are The Cheapest And Most Expensive Weekends To Stay At The Las Vegas Strip
There is an absolutely silly amount of concerts, magic shows, stand-up comedy, performance art and staged events that happen daily on the famous Las Vegas strip. Year round, there is always some big event that takes place, whether it be in a convention center like CES, stadium like EVO, or an experience the Sphere. The strip also got its first F1 race last year, and it's back in town on November '24.
If your plans aren't tied to an event, and you just want to get a hotel and start gambling, what's the best month to go?
Well, thanks to Reddittor u/LineChatter, we now know what hotel costs are like for a weekend stay on the strip. The data was sourced directly from 37 different hotel websites, and tracked over the course of months. These are the average weekend trip prices, so Friday through Sunday night, and include resort fees and taxes, but not parking costs.
To save the most money, you'll need to face the harsh winters (temperatures as low as 34 F) and brutal summers (as high as 106 F) of the Nevada desert. The data skews a bit in February, which might be an outlier considering the Super Bowl was just hosted at the Allegiant Stadium, which housed around 61,000 fans on game day.
The cheapest month was January ($544,) and was around half of February's spike. Since the Super Bowl won't be in Las Vegas next year, expect February prices to dip, which would then make October ($965 on average) the most expensive month.
On average, with a Super Bowl skew, it looks like a weekend trip last year cost folks $730.
