1. Watch the Bellagio Fountain Show

The Bellagio Fountain show is one of the top attractions because they are just awesome.

I love watching the Bellagio fountains perform their choreographed state-of-the-art dance!  And apparently so does everyone else as every time we have come to watch the family-friendly fountain show it is super crowded.

That’s OK, it’s so worth it as this is one of the best experiences in Las Vegas in our opinion.

Grab your spot and enjoy the magic on the Las Vegas strip.  The Bellagio fountains put on their show right in front of the Bellagio.

The Bellagio Fountain show times remain constant, coming on every 30 minutes from 3-8 pm Monday-Friday, and then every 15 minutes from 8 pm-midnight.

On Saturdays, the show starts at noon, and then on Sunday, the fountains come alive beginning at 11 am, so adding this to your Las Vegas sightseeing list is easy.

For more information, visit the Bellagio website.

2. View Garage Art

Yes, you read that correctly, garage art should definitely be on your list of things to do in Vegas tonight.

The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas has allowed artists to use the walls of their parking garage as a canvas.

The series of murals by graffiti artist will make you realize that the Cosmopolitan isn’t just an ordinary Las Vegas hotel.

3.  See the Blarney Stone

You don’t have to travel to Ireland to see the Blarney Stone.  Nope!  It is one of the fabulous Las Vegas free attractions!

Instead, head to the D hotel in Las Vegas to see this piece of the famous castle. Located on the second floor on a table by the bar, you will find the piece of the stone.  The sign in front of it does ask that you rub the stone instead of kiss it though.  You are in Las Vegas and not Ireland. LOL!

Maybe it will bring you some Irish luck in Las Vegas!

4.  Listen to Some Dueling Pianos

If you’ve never seen a dueling piano show, then this is your chance.

The Piano Bar at Harrah’s Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas has just that.  The interactive piano show is really fun to experience as it is two twins competing for your attention.

The show takes place nightly at 9:00 pm.

5.  Watch a Volcano Explode at the Mirage

Did you ever think you could stand on the Las Vegas strip and watch a volcano explode?  Well, you can when you add it to your list of cheap things to do in Las Vegas.

The lagoon puts on quite a show with fire shooting out of the lagoon and the volcano.

The show takes place daily at 7 and 8:00 pm, and then they add a 9:00 pm eruption on Friday and Saturday nights. 

6.  Spend Some Time with Mimes

On the “streets” of the Paris Hotel and Casino, you will find several mimes just waiting to entertain you.  I know it’s kinda silly, but they are actually really good and funny.  They did remind me of some of the street performers that we saw on our trip to Paris and they kinda make you forget you’re in sin city. LOL!

Pair your pictures from here with our quotes about Paris.

7.  Visit Las Vegas Park

Located between the New York, New York, and the Monte Carlo Hotels, the Las Vegas Park is a great place to relax and people watch.  We enjoyed grabbing a cold drink or a cup of coffee and sitting in this area to just relax after a long day in fabulous Las Vegas. 

Check out the 40-foot tall Bliss Dance sculpture before catching one of the many completely free events in the park.  Visit their page for more information.

8.  Enjoy the Fremont Street Experience

If you’re asking yourself is Las Vegas expensive?

You won’t think so if you are in the center of downtown Las Vegas, Nevada where you will find Fremont Street, a canopy-covered car-free area that will delight your senses.

The Fremont Street Experience is awesome.  You see, the canopy that hangs over the street comes alive with over two million lights and a state-of-the-art sound system entertaining guests from around the world.

Walking around, you will notice it’s surrounded by “old Las Vegas” casinos.  There are usually street performers and live music going on as well.  Definitely one of the fun things to do without spending a dime.

You’re probably wondering why I would be sending you to a college campus while you’re on vacation in Las Vegas?!

Well, that’s because the Marjorie Barrick Museum is located on UNLV’s campus.

Don’t worry though, it’s only three miles away from the strip.  Here you will enjoy great modern and contemporary art pieces while enjoying a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas.

Be sure to head to the far south end of Las Vegas Boulevard and find the iconic “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign.  Granted, you might have to wait your turn in order to participate in this as the area in front of the fabulous Las Vegas sign gets very crowded with visitors.

Nonetheless, it is one of the iconic Las Vegas free things to do.  This picture with the Las Vegas sign is the perfect souvenir to take home with you on your trip to Las Vegas.

12.  Hike Red Rock Canyon

Get out of the city and experience some of the Las Vegas terrains in Red Rock Canyon.  With several hikes and trails to choose from, there is a hike available for all ability levels.

You know, Las Vegas and the canyon are great items to add to a southwest road trip as well! 

13.  City Center Fine Art

View the art collection in City Center.  Their goal was to bring fine art to an urban destination, like Las Vegas, and they did just that by populating their public spaces with some amazing artwork.

It’s funny to think that such amazing artwork can be viewed for free.

14.  Visit the Eiffel Tower

Okay, so it’s not the real Eiffel Tower that we saw in Paris, but it’s a nice replica.

Take a picture in front of the Eiffel Tower, or for a small fee, ride to the top of the 46 stories and get one of the best views of the Las Vegas Strip.

Completely inspired by the Eiffel Tower’s illuminations in France, the replica in Las Vegas has a free, recurring light show every 30 minutes on the hour and the half-hour from sunset to midnight.  The 300 color-changing lights and 800 strobe lights light up the Las Vegas skyline.

The picture of you in front of the Eiffel Tower can be included with your list of free things to do, but the ride to the top costs so it will have to be added to your list of fun things to do.

The Eiffel Tower is right in front of The Paris Hotel and Casino, and is definitely a Las Vegas-style attraction.

15.  Witness the Fall of the Atlantis

This animated display of fire, water, and nine-foot-tall talking statues located in Caesar’s Palace Forum is sure to hold your attention.  The story is set in the kingdom of Atlantis, where king Atlas has to decide which of his children will overtake the throne.  And these siblings are in a true Las Vegas-style family feud.

It does get crowded once the show begins and it can be hard to hear the characters, but it doesn’t matter.  You can make up your own narrations. I mean, you are in sin city.

Located near the Cheesecake Factory and the Nike store in Caesar’s Palace Forum, the show lasts about 10 minutes and takes place every hour on the hour, beginning at 11 am.

16.  Get Your Picture With a Showgirl

Yes, you can get your picture with a showgirl!  Harrah’s Casino often has two or three of their showgirls ready to pose with whoever would like a picture. Of course, you should tip the ladies, so add this to your list of Las Vegas things to do.

17.  See the World’s Brightest Light Beam

Every night you can witness the World’s largest light beam right here in Las Vegas.  Just find The Luxor pyramid and look up.  It’s the most powerful light in the world!

19.  Walk through the Botanical Gardens

The Conservatory and Botanical Gardens at the Bellagio change with every season.  The horticulturists bring the Conservatory to life with different themes and colors to match the season.

The Bellagio Conservatory team transforms the 14,000-square-foot area several times a year.  Just head through the lobby of the hotel, you can’t miss the gorgeous display that awaits on the other side. 

When the season changes and the display changes, the plants, and trees that were here are recycled to help the Earth even more. This is a true jewel in Las Vegas!

And even better, The Botanical Gardens are open 24-hours a day! 

20.  Neon Museum

Roam around and find your favorite in this vast Neon Graveyard.

The organization also refurbishes old signs along the Fremont Street Experience. There is a fee for entrance, but it’s a non-profit organization, so your money is going to a good cause in Las Vegas.

21.  Be Transported to Venice

Hotels in Las Vegas definitely go above and beyond, making you feel like you have been transported around the world. The Venetian Hotel is not an exception to this rule.

Outside you get a taste of Venice. You can pay for a gondola ride if you want, just note that the gondola rides aren’t cheap.

Once inside, follow the canal that runs throughout the shops. If you paid for a gondola ride, they will take you on these canals, if not, just walk. You will uncover lively piazzas with cafes connected by charming bridges, just like in Venice.  Well, not totally, but it’s something at least.

We loved walking through the Venetian Hotel experiencing all of the vast decor and the awesome street performers.

22.  Hang out at the Container Park

The downtown Las Vegas container park is a great place to shop, eat, and just plain hang out.  This 1.1-acre park is an entertainment mecca and welcomes over 2,000 visitors a day.

The first thing you will notice is the 44-foot-tall praying mantis that shoots fireballs from its antennae.  The park is home to restaurants, bars, a gelato parlor, and shopping.  The kids will also love the playground that houses a 33-foot slide!

They host free events including concerts, variety shows, and movie nights as well.  Take note that after 9 pm, the Container Park is a Las Vegas adults-only venue.

23.  Go Old-School at the Pinball Hall of Fame

Full of old-school pinball machines, this 10,000 square-foot museum will make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.  The collection at the Pinball Hall of Fame ranges from the 1950s to the 1990s.

Although you have to pay to play the machines (most only 25 cents), all the money goes to Las Vegas charity since this is a non-profit organization. Definitely one of the fun things to do!

24. See the Flamingos

Yes, it’s true, you can see real-life flamingos while on the Las Vegas Strip.

Located in the Flamingo Hotel, the Wildlife Habitat is home to exotic birds, fish, and of course, the flamingos.  The Wildlife Habitat sits on 15-acres and is completely free to see.

25.  Go Rock and Roll at the Hard Rock

If you love rock and roll, then you will love the collection of rock memorabilia at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas.

The memorabilia includes instruments, outfits, and pictures from rock and roll legends including Nirvana, The Rolling Stones, Guns N’ Roses, and of course, Elvis!

You can view the memorabilia for free 24 hours a day while in Las Vegas.

26.  Explore M&M World

If you don’t want to spend any money, just walk around and explore this large store devoted to M&M’s.

27.  Go to the Circus for Free!

It’s true, you can see the circus for free while in Las Vegas! Head over to the Circus-Circus Hotel to see the performers fly through the air. 

Performances start daily at 11:30 am and include many different acts.  You can see people on the flying trapeze, aerial silk performance, clowns, and many other amazing acts.

The Bellagio Chocolate Fountain in Las Vegas, Nevada is home to this incredible chocolate fountain in the world!  Once inside the Bellagio, head to the Jean Philippe Patisserie to observe this marvel.  I mean, can I just jump into this fountain?  I doubt the employees would appreciate that, but I love the thought!

Of course, after you watch the fountain, be sure and splurge on a chocolate treat!

29.  See a Mermaid

Again, there are all kinds of things in Las Vegas!  At the Silverton Casino, you can view a 117,000-gallon aquarium that houses many tropical fish, and yes, mermaids.

31.  Biggest Golden Nugget in Existence

Located in downtown Las Vegas, inside of The Golden Nugget Hotel, you will find the biggest golden nugget in existence, the Hand of Faith.

The Hand of Faith was found in 1980 when Kevin Hillier found it outside of his hometown in Wedderburn, Australia.  The crazy part about this is the golden nugget was only about a foot underground!  He sold his nugget to the Golden Nugget Hotel in Las Vegas for over a million dollars!

34.  Relax in the Hot Springs

Head outside of Las Vegas a little and enjoy a hike to a fabulous natural hot spring.  Take note, parts of the hike are rather strenuous, so do your research before heading out toward the Colorado River.

A popular hot spring is the Gold Strike Hot Springs.  This spring is in a set of cascading pools in the Colorado River.  Getting here is a little harder though, so be sure and do your research before visiting.

35.  Stroll the Strip

One of the best things to do is just stroll along the stip.  Take in all the excitement around you while popping in to visit any of the local stores or restaurants that you’d like.

Be warned though, the Las Vegas strip is much longer than it appears.  Given the fact that crossing the street requires you to go upstairs and cross over a bridge, walking the strip takes a little longer than you might originally think.  Pace yourself and be sure and drink lots of water while visiting Las Vegas.

36.  Play Lawn Games

The Gold Spike is an oversized adult playground in Las Vegas, Nevada.  You can hang out in the living room or the backyard and take part in all of the fun that surrounds you.

Every night the rooftop canopy over the Grand Bazaar Shops at Bally’s comes alive.  Set to custom-created music, this light show is highlighted by a Swarovski Crystal Starburst that soars above the Grand Baraaz Shops and can be seen from all over Las Vegas Boulevard.

The show takes place nightly, every 15 minutes beginning at 8:05.

39.  Visit Hershey Chocolate World

Located in the New York-New York Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Hershey Chocolate World is home to more than 800 chocolates and candies.  I love that you get a free sample when you enter the store so go as many times as you want while visiting Las Vegas!

40.  View Some Great Photography

Located in The Linq Hotel in Las Vegas, The Polaroid Fotobar is a delight for shutterbugs.  You can upload, edit, and print your own photos on the first floor before touring the museum.

The museum houses pictures of famous photographers holding up their favorite photos as well as many other fun exhibits of photography throughout the decades.  For photography lovers, this is a great cheap thing to do in Vegas.

While at The Linq, you probably noticed the High Roller outside also. The High Roller is a 550-foot tall Ferris Wheel that welcomes visitors to enjoy a 30 min ride and an open-air bar inside of the High Roller cabins. There is a fee for this, so check prices before you add the High Roller onto your list.

41.  Learn to Gamble

Of course, the Las Vegas casinos will teach you to gamble.  I mean how will they get your money if you don’t feel confident enough to play.

Most casinos have lesson times, just visit their website, or ask at the information desk.  They will surely hook you up with free lessons in hopes that you’ll be spending money in Las Vegas casinos after that!

So it’s not the real Statue of Liberty, but it’s a great recreation and it’s found right here in Las Vegas, Nevada..  Outside of the New York, New York Hotel, and casino, you will see just that.

While here, be sure and explore the fun New York, New York hotel as well.  I mean, how many hotels in the world have a full-size roller coaster going through their lobby?  Not only that but the restaurants inside are also themed after popular New York food establishments.

45.  Sample Whiskey at Vom Fass

Located in The Grand Canal Shoppes in the Venetian, VOM FASS offers a free whiskey experience Thursday-Saturday at 7:00 pm.  During the 45-minute class, participants learn about the whiskey-making process before tasting bourbon, Irish whiskey, and scotch.

47.  Admire the Glass Ceiling of the Bellagio

While inside the lobby of the gorgeous Bellagio, look up!  Over your head, you will see over 2,000 colorful hand-blown glass sculptures.

These gorgeous flowers, crafted by world-class renowned artist, Dale Chihuly, weigh in at over 40,000 pounds!  The masterpiece is called the “Fiori di Como” and is one of Chihuly’s most recognized pieces of art.  I’m sure that is due to the fact that 15-20,000 people come to the hotel’s lobby just to view the masterpiece.  The pieces are supported by a 10,000-pound steel armature to ensure that the pieces stay intact.

A fun fact, every morning between 2 and 5 am, a team of engineers clean and maintain the sculptures! You won’t find this anywhere but Las Vegas!

48.  Have Lunch with Harleys

Harley lovers will be in heaven at the Harley Davidson Cafe located right on the Las Vegas Strip.

You never know, your free pull might make you some money!  Take a chance, I mean what do you have to lose, it’s free and you’re in Las Vegas!

Originally created in 1979 by Benny Binion, the owner of the Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas, the Hall of Fame of Poker was to celebrate and preserve the names and legends of the poker community.  I guess it didn’t hurt that this served as a tourist attraction in his casinos as well.
