Making the trip to Super Bowl LVIII? Check out these things to do in Vegas
With the news that the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will be facing off in Super Bowl LVIII, many fans are beginning to plan trips to see the game, which will be held in Las Vegas this year.
If you’re one of the lucky fans who snagged a ticket to the biggest game of the year, you’re likely planning to do more than just watch football when in Vegas. Although at the Super Bowl you can watch an Usher performance at the halftime show and try to spot Taylor Swift, there’s plenty to do in Vegas before and after the game.
Here’s a round-up of some ideas for an action-packed Super Bowl weekend trip:
Helicopter night flight
See the neon lights and stunning skyline from thousands of feet in the air with this unique experience. When guests sign up for this experience, they also get to enjoy a dinner before the big flight. Sign up and check rates at Viator.com.
Vegas Strip walking tour
Never been to Vegas before? Or maybe you have but you didn’t venture much outside of your resort. If either of those options is the case, opt to spend a few hours of your next Vegas trip seeing all the sights on foot — from mega-casinos to impressive fountains to little-known spots off of the tourist trail. Head to TripAdvisor to book your walking tour.
Hoover Dam tour
In just a 45-minute car ride from Downtown Las Vegas, you can check out one of America’s greatest feats of engineering — the Hoover Dam. TripAdvisor hosts a comprehensive VIP tour that includes lunch, photo ops on the bridge overlooking the dam and a tour of the inside as well.
High Roller Ferris Wheel
Want a bird’s-eye-view of Vegas without having to pay for a helicopter trip? The High Roller Wheel at the LINQ Promenade gives you the perfect opportunity to do just that. Enjoy the thrill of an amusement park ride and the sights of neon, starry lights all at once. Get tickets at Ticketmaster.
Go to a concert
Get ready to party with Usher by checking out other iconic artists performing in Vegas like Adele, Kelly Clarkson, U2 and T-Pain. Click here to find our full list of Super Bowl weekend concerts with direct links to purchase tickets.
Take a day trip to Los Angeles
Although Vegas and LA are roughly 4 hours apart by car, TripAdvisor hosts day trips from Vegas to LA that include transportation by bus and a full tour of all of the city’s iconic spots. From Hollywood to the Santa Monica Pier and Beverly Hills, get two cities in on your trip and double the fun.
