Visiting Vegas? These are the Las Vegas events in July you shouldn’t miss.
Welcome to Las Vegas in the heat of summer!
Vegas is fine to visit any time of year if you plan on spending your time inside the casinos. We spend July focusing on exploring the “great indoors”. Unless you’re hanging by the pool, we highly recommend you stay inside. The sun beats you down, and even after sun down, it will feel like a blow dryer on you all night. Heat stroke is a genuine concern in the summer.
If you happen to be visiting in July, we put together a monthly guide of all the happenings and organized them by date and category. We hope you find this helpful! Stay safe. Wear sunscreen.

Tips for Visiting Las Vegas in July
- Get tickets as soon as you know what shows you want to see. Popular shows & concerts sell out fast!
- Read all the fine print before heading to a show – some have restrictions on what you can bring with you.
- Save money on multiple attractions, and get the All-Inclusive or Explorer Pass.
- Sunscreen is a must, especially if you’re doing outdoor activities.
- Plan to arrive early for meals and shows. It takes longer than you think to get from one spot on the strip to another. Give yourself a buffer.
What to Wear in Vegas in July
July is hot, especially during the day, but the AC keeps the casinos cold.
- Bring layers – layers are essential for visiting Las Vegas. As the temperatures get hot outside, they crank up AC inside. These are our favorite travel jackets.
- Dressy clothes – pack them if you plan on going clubbing or eating at nicer restaurants. You will see a mix of tourists in casinos dressed both up and down.
- Shoes – If you’re going out at night, you’ll probably bring heels or dress shoes, but make sure you bring a pair of comfortable travel shoes as well. The casinos are massive, and you walk a lot to get from place to place.
- Want to know what to wear to the airport? Here’s my ideal airport outfit and our carry-on essentials for every flight.
Best Places to Stay in Las Vegas
Is July the Best time to Visit Las Vegas?
If you’re mostly going to be indoors on the Strip, visit any time of the year since the temperature won’t matter.
For outdoor activities like hiking and climbing, you should visit between November and March. But if you’re here for the pool parties and lake life, this is the time!
In our opinion, we like leaving Vegas during July and August, but you do you!
