About this area
The Strip is packed with free and paid attractions you can walk between. Most are open late, and many are best at night when the neon is on.
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
- Buy combo tickets if you plan to ride more than one attraction.
- Views are best just after sunset.
