GETTING TO LAS VEGAS

Plane

The Las Vegas Festival Grounds are located just a few miles from LAS (Harry Reid International Airport).

GETTING TO LAS VEGAS FESTIVAL GROUNDS

Festival grounds are only accessible by walking, rideshare and Las Vegas Monorail. There is NO direct access to the festival grounds for passenger vehicles.

Rideshare / Taxi and Limousine Drop-Off

You can get dropped off or picked up by a rideshare, taxi, or limousine in the festival's transportation lot located at 810 Circus Circus Dr, at the south end of the festival grounds, just across the street from Circus Circus Hotel & Resort. Due to intermittent closure of Westbound Circus Circus Dr., make your approach to 810 Circus Circus Dr from Sammy Davis Jr Dr.

At the end of the night, we encourage festival goers to walk to surrounding hotels and casinos to utilize the existing rideshare operations for pickup. Following the show, Las Vegas Blvd will be closed to through traffic and patrons will be directed south on the Strip where you will be able to utilize existing rideshare operations.

Parking

The festival does not offer onsite parking.

Public Transportation 

Las Vegas Monorail

Ride the Las Vegas Monorail to the SAHARA Las Vegas Station. Upon arrival, walk across the Monorail pedestrian bridge across Paradise Avenue and walk through SAHARA before crossing Las Vegas Blvd to enter festival grounds.
