The headline freebies
- Fremont Street canopy — light shows run hourly after dusk, free
- Bellagio fountains — choreographed roughly every 15-30 minutes from midday
- Conservatory at Bellagio — seasonal botanical displays, free
- Lion habitat at MGM Grand and the flamingo wildlife habitat at the Flamingo — free
- The Mirage volcano (2026 schedule) — free, evenings
Worth the walking
Caesars runs the Fall of Atlantis animatronics free every hour. The LINQ Promenade's fountain-and-light atmosphere costs nothing — only the wheel is paid. Downtown's Container Park hosts family movie nights in season.
Free, with a footnote
- Many casinos hand new loyalty members slot credit or food credit — two minutes of signup, real value
- The Mob Museum runs occasional free community days
- Art installations rotate through the big resorts
Remember that the freebies are free in cash only — if you stay in a paid resort, the nightly fee applies either way.
