When planning a wedding in Las Vegas, it is important to know the weekends you may want to avoid. Weddings on the Las Vegas Strip are popular and a blast for couples and guests. We have plenty of dining, entertainment, gaming and other amenities to satisfy any crowd. But the crowds become larger on certain weekends. We’ve listed popular 2024 weekends in Las Vegas so you are aware that certain venues, hotels and locations may be at the bursting point — which means high prices and limited negotiating.
Super Bowl LVIII — February 11, 2024
Hosting the Super Bowl for the first time in Las Vegas is sure to bring big crowds. It’s a milestone event and most places are already booked to the max. The Super Bowl won’t be an annual event in Las Vegas but you may want to be aware of the Las Vegas Raiders football schedule. Depending on your group, that may be a fun outing for the day following your wedding — or it may mean you want to avoid those home game weekends with the extra traffic.
EDC Las Vegas — May 17-19, 2024
This popular music festival is coming to Las Vegas again and draws tons of music revelers. In years past it’s been tough to track down a taxi on this weekend. The event is held at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on the North end of Las Vegas Boulevard. If any of your wedding events are held around that area you’d be in for hours of traffic, yikes! May is a perfect month for a wedding in Las Vegas so keep in mind venues in other areas of town. And be prepared to book any Strip hotels early.
Formula 1 — November 21-23, 2024
The inaugural Formula 1 Las Vegas race was held in 2023 and was a learning curve for many locals and tourists. You can except heavy construction again on the Las Vegas Strip in the weeks leading up to the event. Initially, rooms were booked at sky high prices several months in advance. As the event drew closer, logistics and hype about the event ran the gamut. You’d be safest selecting off-strip accommodations for your wedding guests if those dates are a must-have for you.
