What’s New Years Eve like in Las Vegas? It’s Nuts!! That’s the best way to put it. About 300,000 people will be in town to celebrate the count down. Most will be down on the Las Vegas Strip.
Walk The Strip
Starting at 6pm, they start to close the strip down to traffic. Closing the on ramps a little while later. meaning you can literally walk the strip. The crowds start to show up around 9pm. After they set up the security “duck pond” in the middle and the resorts set up their gates.
What’s really amazing is that by 4am, the Las Vegas Strip is almost as clean and open as it was just 12 hours earlier!! Difficult to tell there was even a massive party there.
