The best sports bars, restaurants, shows, and experiences that make Las Vegas the ultimate football destination.
A Las Vegas football trip is about so much more than the 60 minutes of game time. Vegas has built an entire ecosystem around sports culture — massive sports books where you can sweat your bets, celebrity chef restaurants to fuel up before the game, nightlife venues that keep the party going until sunrise, and world-class entertainment that has nothing to do with football but everything to do with having the time of your life. Here's our curated breakdown.
Watch every game, sweat every bet, and drink with thousands of fellow fans.
The largest Topgolf venue in the world, with 102 hitting bays and wall-to-wall screens showing every game. Perfect for a pre-game warm-up or the full Sunday afternoon slate. Book bays in advance — they fill up fast on game weekends.
MGM Grand Drive • All day
Emeril Lagasse's sports bar inside The Palazzo is one of the premier game-watching spots in Vegas. 100+ screens, 8,000 square feet, and actual good food (not just bar grub). Reserve a table during big games.
The Palazzo • Opens at 10 AM game days
A beloved local hangout in the Fremont East district with giant screens, yard games, and a decidedly non-touristy vibe. Great for fans who want to experience Vegas the way residents do.
Fremont East • Open late
Every major Strip casino has a massive sports book with comfortable seating, multiple screens, and the ability to bet on the action in real time. The Westgate SuperBook is considered the best in the city — legendarily large and well-run.
Multiple locations • Open 24 hours
From pre-game fuel to post-game celebrations — the best dining in Vegas for sports fans.
Vegas entertainment to complement your football weekend.
Vegas hosts the biggest names in music year-round. From Adele to Post Malone, there's typically a major residency running every football weekend. Check the Dolby Live at Park MGM and Encore Theater schedules when you book your trip.
Multiple shows running across Vegas simultaneously. O at Bellagio and KA at MGM Grand are the perennial favorites. Book in advance — popular shows sell out weeks ahead on game weekends.
Las Vegas's newest landmark venue is unlike anything else on Earth. The 18,000-seat immersive entertainment arena at the Venetian Resort hosts concerts and experiences that are genuinely jaw-dropping. Book early — it sells out constantly.
