Vegas Loop

What the Vegas Loop is

The Vegas Loop is a network of small, electric vehicles running in underground tunnels beneath and around the Las Vegas resort and convention corridor. It is designed to move convention crowds and visitors quickly between major venues without fighting surface traffic.

Think of it as a private, on-demand style shuttle in a tunnel—not a traditional train with a fixed schedule on rails. Operators publish the latest capacity, expansion segments, and ride options on their own sites; this guide helps you plan and points you to those sources.

Where it runs

Public materials describe a growing network centered on the Las Vegas Convention Center and connected resort properties. Approved long-range plans reference many miles of tunnel and a large number of future stations across the valley, including connections toward the airport, stadium, and downtown in later phases.

Do not rely on any third-party map for station hours or entrance rules. Use the official ride flow and venue signage the day of your trip.

• Las Vegas Convention Center Loop: Moves convention attendees across the LVCC campus; often the first experience visitors have with the system.
• Resorts World connector: Links resort and corridor destinations on the north end of the Strip area.
• Westgate connector: Connects toward the Westgate area; check official pages for entry points.
• Encore connector: Serves Encore-adjacent access; confirm station hours before planning dinner or a show.

Hours, fares, and capacity

Fares, hours, and group policies change with events and operator updates. Treat the bullets below as planning reminders, not a price list.

• Always confirm the current fare and payment method on the official ride site or app before you budget.
• Major conventions, fight weekends, and holidays can add demand—arrive with buffer time if you have a hard show or flight.
• Hotel guests may receive different instructions than day visitors; ask the concierge for the nearest open station.

Events and busy periods

When CES, major trade shows, or arena events align, the Loop can be the fastest way across the campus—or a busy queue if everyone has the same idea at once. Early arrival and off-peak moves (before keynote blocks) usually feel calmer.

If you are combining a show on the Strip with convention time, pair Loop rides with a walking buffer and a known charging stop—see our charging map for DC sites you can trust.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Vegas Loop the same as the Las Vegas Monorail?

No. The Monorail is an elevated rail line along part of the Strip. The Loop uses tunnels and small electric vehicles. They serve different paths and ticketing systems.

Do I need a ticket in advance?

It depends on the segment and the event. Use the official ride link from the operator for the day you travel—some flows are walk-up, others are bundled with event credentials.

How long are typical rides?

Public materials promote short end-to-end times within the network, but your real trip time includes walking to the headhouse, security, and queueing. Build in extra minutes during peak convention blocks.

Can I bring a stroller or wheelchair?

Accessibility and stroller policies are set by the operator and venue. Check the official FAQ or ask staff at the station entrance before you queue.

Is the Loop safer than rideshare on the surface?

Both are regulated transportation modes with different tradeoffs. Follow onboard instructions, mind platform edges, and use crosswalks when you exit to surface streets.

Will the Loop take me to the airport today?

Airport service depends on which segments are open in the phase you visit. Read the latest system map on the operator site—do not assume a single tunnel serves every city destination yet.

Where should I charge my EV after using the Loop?

Use our Charging Map to filter for DC fast chargers near your hotel or next stop. Pair charging with a meal or check-in so idle time feels productive.
