HISTORY

This sign, designed by neon artist Betty Willis and erected in 1959, has become a world-famous symbol of Las Vegas. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.

Mark Winer

For just a tip you get 10-20 professional pictures taken and emailed to you in less than 3 minutes. Ask for Mark Thursdays thru Sundays after dark. You get GREAT pictures and have a BLAST taking them!

Hannah

Great photo op! Don't listen to random people there... Anyone is allowed to take pics. Free parking is hard to come by but available!

Sean Foley

Incredible finally getting to see this upclose in person!! Thank You so Much Tita Amy, Nick, JoAnne and Kids!! Such incredible Memories and Experience!

Erik Rowley

Standing tall since 1959, this iconic Welcome symbol (And example of Googie architecture ) is one of the most popular photo opps in the USA. Be sure to check the backside if you’re leaving!

Must place to go. Better go in the morning or afternoon. The queue is not to long. There's a guy to help you taking picture but you must give tips to him.

Mohammed

If you visited Las Vegas but you forgot to take a picture in front of this sign you need to repeat the visit.

Get a selfie with the Welcome To Fabulous Las Vegas Sign by walking past the long line . Stand to the side and snap away. You can get photos in minutes rather than waiting.

Las Vegas Mannequins

In 1993, plans to beautify the Strip included removing the sign from its place south of Mandalay Bay (0.8 miles). Those who opposed the idea won, and the sign is still in its original place.

Road Unraveled

Great spot for a photo! Come early in the day to beat the crowds (and heat). It’s free, so you don’t need to pay anyone if they’re trying to help you with a photo.

Anthony Giffen

Moe Greene invented Las Vegas. This was a great man, a man of vision and guts. And it's outrageous that there isn't even a plaque , or a signpost or a statue of him in this town !

Monica Escobar

There always a line but it worth it! Give a couple dollars to the guy there and you'll have better pictures

Spiros Theocharis

It's just a bright welcoming sign. It symbolizes the entrance to the city . The area around it has been shaped to host cars so that people can stop by and take photos.

Venita Shoulders

Love walking the strip; eating at Wicked Spoon; people watching ; lots of great placesto eat! Oh and. Hoover dam and Lake Mead

Nm

Come twice to get welcomed and say goodbye ❤️????

Denette

Great place to take a fun touristy photo. At night Elvis hangs out with his led light to help your photos for tips

Jeremy Weitting

Wether you shop, eat, gamble or site see --- Vegas has it all! Enjoy your time on the strip.

John Jison

"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas " Bring Your nice Camera . You don't wanna regret not taking those wonderful views around the city .

T

There’s parking and it’s free so why not

Lauren Beasley

Busy crowd. There were 2 obnoxious "photographers " taking supposedly free pictures for people and they pretty much ignored anyone who brought their own camera . We went at night. Big crowd.

Eric Ho

Had a wonderful time in Vegas . Follow my tips on Instagram @EricHoRaw

Nicole Dawson

Although it looks close to Mandalay Bay , it isn't really! Take a cab and get it to wait for you while you take your pics. When I went, there was a girl that would take pics of you with your camera .

Smith285

Long line for waiting, go early in the morning with less Vegas heat

Vanessa Goh

Watch out for a scary man at night who tries to harass you and take your pictures. Calls girls "baby" and won't leave you alone. Go in a big group if late at night.

Louise Sutherland

If you are in Vegas , you have to visit the sign. God access to pull in car park going South towards Airport . You cannot stop going North.

Shawn Grincewich

When going to the sign check out 2 dedication plaques !!

Jordan Bennett S

A must, for anyone visiting Vegas or the first time. Originally erected in 1959 it is now on the national registry of historic places.

Mike Kowalczyk

A must-do in Las Vegas but there's a fairly sizable line so make sure you plan your time accordingly.

Carla Jean

WELCOME To SIN CITY !! I've Been Here More Than Once & Every Trip Is NEVER The Same!! Bring Your Nice Camera , Or What Really Does Happen In Vegas Will STAY In Vegas !! ;)

Mandy Allman

Easy to get in to stop and take a picture. This visit they had the memorial set up for the Vegas shooting victims.

Njoud Fahad

Must have a photo here

Jason Ellison

It's a quick walk from Mandalay bay . There is a crosswalk with a light to get there. Don't bother with a cab unless it is super hot out.

JK Grence

Don’t bother waiting or letting the scam artist take your picture. Go up to the side, do your selfie, and enjoy your vacation!

Zappos.com

We are so happy to have you in our hometown! Vegas Baby !!! We hope you get lucky while you're here. Come take a tour of Zappos HQ and experience our fun and crazy world. Read more

Mike

Always a crowd, but sometimes you can get people to line up so we can all take a nice picture one at a time....

Jimmy Kastner

If you have jet lag, come here first thing in the morning. You'll beat the crowds and get great pictures.

Heinie Brian Hartendorp

If yer visiting Las Vegas, it's imperative that you take a pic here!

Christopher Stoll

For a better selfie, without dealing with the crowd, stand to the right of the sign (blocking out the tourists ) and have the sign over your left shoulder

Blake

There's always a crowd, but the line moves fast. It's free!

Daniel van Leeuwen

A must see, people queing for half an hour to take a selfie. The sign itself is much smaller than expected.

Ryan DeGuzman

You don't have to give your camera to the person inevitably there to "take the picture for you."

Sam Ott

A must see on your vacation to do list!

Ashley M

I say its better to take pix during the day cuz at night either u use a flash and the sign is dark or no flash and u can only see the sign. Lines go quick anyways

HL

It's quite sad that authorities haven't built a crosswalk to the center of the street. You have to cross three lanes in front of cars in order to get to the sign.

Mr BACON

Make sure you try the Fried Chicken !

Natalie

Always a good place to stop for a tourist picture.

Dana Fritz

Take a picture at an angle from the side and avoid the lines . There is free parking for the sign.

Venita Shoulders

At night, have a bright light to shine for pics!

Adam Nowek

Try to get there earlier in the day before the hordes arrive. Be careful crossing the street!

Aaron Rowe

A must visit location on your trip to Vegas .
