10. Fremont Street Experience

Millions of lights over several blocks on Fremont Street create phenomenal shows regularly in the evening across 4 closed-off city blocks. The shows are different throughout the evening and are coordinated with a state-of-the-art sound system. The show has recently been upgraded and is better than ever, truly a reason to go Downtown.

The Fremont Street Experience is more more than just the light show. There are street performers and artists, kiosks and food stands. On weekend nights, there are also free concerts. This is a great place to come people-watch. You can find inexpensive bottled beer (many different domestic and imported varieties) at Sassy Sally's. After 10pm, be sure to head to Binion's Horseshoe for "The Natural" steak and eggs breakfast for $3.99 (last I checked). If you want a buffet, head straight to Main Street Station. They have one of the best buffets (and nicest looking casinos) in Las Vegas. Gentlemen, don't fall for the "Free Admission" lure at "The Girls of Glitter Gulch" strip club. They hit you with the two drink minimum (about $6.50 a drink) and they DON'T serve alcohol. Go to Olympic Gardens or Crazy Horse 2 instead. Parents be aware that despite the FSE , downtown Las Vegas is NOT family friendly. There is nothing inside the downtown casinos for children. Bring them here to enjoy the light show and to walk around. They'll enjoy it.
