Highlights of Las Vegas
1. Travel
Las Vegas makes it easy for all those delegates to arrive. McCarran International Airport, which is located right next to the Strip, is ranked among the 12 busiest airports in the world based on the amount of passenger activity, and is served by more than 30 air carriers.
2. Hotels
With over 140,000 hotel rooms, attendees are always close to their event venue, entertainment, shopping and everything they need for a great experience. Las Vegas event venues are top-notch, transporting your group to Venice, Paris or New York - all without leaving the Strip.
3. Leisure
For those craving Old Vegas-style glitz, the downtown area and Fremont Street, with its iconic hotels, have been transformed into a hip destination with high-end facilities (at value prices). Downtown now offers a unique blend of vintage and ultra-modern.
