A famous landmark, the Fremont Street Experience sizzles with energy that is uniquely Vegas. It’s a pedestrian mall that spans five blocks of the westernmost Fremont Street. But why is Fremont Street Experience so popular among locals and tourists? What can one see and do there?
Viva Vision LED Canopy
Comprised of 12.5 million LED lamps, the Viva Vision is such a sight to behold. It is 90 feet wide, 1,500 feet long, and suspended 90 feet high up Fremont Street’s pedestrian mall. Everyday starting at dusk, the Viva Vision shows high-resolution, 550,000-watt, six-minute light shows every hour until midnight. This summer, Viva Vision light shows begin at 2pm during weekends.
Apart from the dazzling shows, the Viva Vision LED Canopy is the perfect spot for cooling off from the desert heat. The large Canopy provides a much needed shade with air-conditioning coming from nearby hotel and casinos in the area.
Live Entertainment
Fremont Street Experience offers free live music every night. They also host free concerts twice a month. With three stages strategically positioned in different streets in the area, more bands and entertainers can perform for the massive visiting crowd. Favorite performers include Monroy, Tony Marques, Alter Ego, VooDoo Cowboys, Cash Presley and many more. Robby Krieger of the Doors will headline the event on July 23, 2016. Headliner concerts usually starts at 9pm but better arrive early to get a good spot.
Slotzilla Zipline
Did you know that the biggest slot machine replica in the world, the Slotzilla, can be found in Fremont Street Experience? The Slotzilla is as high as a 12-storey building and is adorned with 35-foot-tall showgirls on each side and a huge martini glass, a pink flamingo, coins, video reels, and dice on the bottom. But Slotzilla isn’t just a popular Instagrammable spot in Vegas. It is also a thrill ride that features two ziplines.
Slotzilla lets individuals fly down Fremont Street in two ways: Zipline and Zoomline. Zipline ($25) takes off 77 feet up and takes flyers halfway down Fremont Street Experience. Zoomline ($45) takes off from 114 feet up and whisks flyers 1,750 feet from Fremont Street Experience all the way to the Golden Gate Casino.
