Things To Do
Fremont Street
Come here for the best people watching, live music every night, cheaper than the strip drinks, gambling and more.

Head over to covered Fremont and pop into the Golden Nugget to see a giant nug of gold, head over to Binions and take a picture with $1M, head over to Hogs and Heifers for some Coyote Ugly bar top dancing, and so much more!
Arts District
This is an up-and-coming part of town, and its full of character! Check out the art galleries and art complex, and check out some of the small businesses with funky products like Recycled Propaganda. Stop by the Velveteen Rabbit (where Gigi and I first met), for great vibes and stellar craft cocktails! There are also a bunch of new bars and restaurants that have opened up in the Arts District, including an Ice Cream shop with a speakeasy, the Doberman Social Club and a Pirate themed bar. Esther's Kitchen is a solid Italian spot with tasty food and a beautiful ambiance. So many breweries! - We don't drink beer, but check out Able Baker for a great selection and good food, CerVezAh for an awesome michelada flight, and the Silver Stamp if you're looking for a dive vibe.
