Fremont Street Experience Tours and Tickets

Yes, it’s worth visiting Fremont Street. It’s a major downtown Las Vegas attraction that packs tons of activities into its 6-block stretch, including many free things to do. Visitors will find slot machines, card games, street musicians, light shows, towering screens, historic wedding chapels and free nightly performances on three stages.

You could spend hours on Fremont Street, especially if you’re gambling or dining out. Light and music play 24 hours a day in the 4-block section called the Fremont Street Experience. There’s lots to see, so guided tours of Fremont Street and the surrounding area generally take at least two hours.

Visitors to Fremont Street don everything from shorts and sandals to glittering party attire. It’s generally a bit more dressed-down than the Las Vegas Strip—especially in the day—but some bars and clubs do have dress codes. To get in the door, skip the work clothes, beach wear, and casual sandals.

Yes, you can walk around with alcohol on Fremont Street—but there are some rules to know. You’ll find nonstop entertainment at the Fremont Street Experience, but visit at night for the best experience when neon lights shine and Viva Vision shows light up the video screen ceiling on the hour. There’s no drinking alcohol from cans and bottles on the street in Las Vegas.

Music, performances, and gambling turn Fremont Street into an open-air party at night. Nightly free performances take place on three stages, plus hourly shows on a vaulted canopy of 12 million LED lights. Night is also a great time to see the neon that earned Fremont Street its nickname of Glitter Gulch.

The Viva Vision Light Show at the Fremont Street Experience lasts between six and eight minutes. It kicks off hourly starting from the evening until the early morning, and pairs music with visuals on the 4-block-long overhead canopy. With 49 million LED bulbs, it's the world’s single largest video screen display.
