In recent years, Las Vegas has seen a significant change in its longstanding tradition of offering free parking at the majority of its casinos on the famous Las Vegas Strip. This shift towards paid parking was initiated by some of the city’s most prominent gaming and hospitality companies, marking a departure from a decades-old practice that many visitors had come to expect as a standard courtesy. Never fear—there are still several spots where you can find complimentary parking on the Strip.
Las Vegas Free Parking
Fashion Show Las Vegas
If you require a gift, an outfit or even just some essentials you left at home, Fashion Show Las Vegas is the perfect place to go. With tons of familiar shopping options (both upscale and casual), you’re sure to find just about anything you’re looking to purchase. You’ll find several department stores, chain shops and boutiques, all nestled in the ample retail space. Suppose you’re in the mood for a great meal. In that case, there are numerous possibilities here, too— Galpao Gaucho offers delicious Brazilian BBQ, Maggiano’s Little Italy is always a crowd-pleaser. Ra Sushi has a fantastic menu that’s even loved by locals.
SAHARA Las Vegas
Home of the fa-favorite Magic Mike Live, SAHARA Las Vegas is constantly upping its game with renovated rooms and brand new eateries aplenty. You’ll have your pick of restaurants before a night on the town seeing the resort’s resident show. There are plenty of options no matter your needs—from quick service (Uno Más Street Tacos + Spirits), Casual comfort food (Chickie’s & Pete’s) to upscale fine dining (Bazaar Meat by José Andrés). Visit AZILO Ultra Lounge afterward to continue your night out (Azilo Ultra Pool is a fantastic daytime destination during the warmer months). The Amina Spa is also an excellent spot to unwind, and they also offer speedy services for those who need to relax in a hurry.
Resorts World Las Vegas
The newest resort on the Las Vegas Strip, Resorts World Las Vegas, offers complimentary self-parking if you sign up for Genting Rewards. It’s easy to spend an entire day here with dozens of food and beverage outlets, a state-of-the-art theatre (with residencies from stars like Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, Carrie Underwood and Celine Dion) and fun surprises around every corner (like the Disco Bathroom). The resort’s impressive food court takes guests on a culinary tour of Asia with some of the most sought-after imports in the city. The shopping arcade offers fun retail options from the sexy Pepper boutique to Sneaker Garden and Judith Leiber. Check out our walkthrough of the resort from opening night here.
