Downtown Container Park is an open-air shopping and dining center built from shipping containers, marked by a giant fire-breathing praying mantis sculpture.

Highlights

  • Fire-breathing mantis at the entrance
  • Boutiques and small eateries
  • Live music and events
  • Kids' play area

About this area

Downtown is where Las Vegas began. Museums, vintage neon and Fremont Street's light canopy make it a great half-day or evening away from the Strip.

Fitting it into race week

Track sessions run in the evening, so daytime is free for sightseeing. Allow extra travel time near the Strip on track nights because of road closures.

Tips

  • Evening mantis shows are a fun photo op.
  • Some areas are 21+ after 9pm.
