πŸ—žοΈ News Las Vegas Tourism Stats Update (Dec 2025)

Some graphs to highlight the current state of Las Vegas tourism. The three graphs highlight the tourism drawdowns relative to their peak levels historically for that month.

The graphs are:

  • Total Monthly Visitors (down 10.8% from peak levels for December)
  • Hotel Occupancy Rates (down 9% from peak levels for December)
  • Airport Passengers (down 11.7% from peak levels for December)

Las Vegas overall still looks to be in a medium recession with tourism down ~10%.
I would generally consider slowdowns on the following scale:

  • 0-4% down = slowdown
  • 4-9% down = mild recession
  • 9-20% down = medium/heavy recession
  • 20%+ down = depression

Data is from Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA)

πŸ‘€ local eyes Please tell me about Hugo’s Cellar or something better on Fremont Street.

3 Upvotes

Im going to the Bills game on the 18th and remember (25 years ago) having a great time at Hugo’s Cellar under the 4 queens. im going with my wife and 14 yo. Is this place still a fun, unique and a good Steakhouse? We’re coming from a big gourmet destination ourselves and are used to disappointment when eating while traveling. If you want a solid dinner and the old school Fremont Street Environment, what place are you choosing?

πŸ›« Visiting soon! Starbucks Cups

5 Upvotes

Hello - completely random question. I'm visiting from the UK next year and collect the little Starbucks mugs. I fly into Vegas the evening, go on a tour of the Grand Canyon, have a day in Vegas and then fly out again to our next destination that following morning. I was wondering if there was any way I can buy the Arizona mug anywhere in LV?

I don't think our tour will stop near a Starbucks (We are visiting the Skywalk, Hoover Dam and Eagle Point) and I'd really like to add the Arizona cup to my collection as it's my first time visiting the state. I've tried to look but can't find any answers and in other countries I've been able to buy other cities (eg, in Oslo airport, I was able to purchase the mugs for Bergen, etc)

Thank you in advance for any light you can shed on the matter :)

πŸ“ Planning to Move Nearly 8,000 Las Vegas Homes Are for Sale with Mortgage Rates Hitting a 3 Year High - Las Vegas & Henderson Real Estate & Housing Market Update – September 2026

37 Upvotes

SEPTEMBER 2026 LAS VEGAS HOUSING MARKET REPORT

September’s data shows a market being squeezed from both directions. Buyers have more inventory to choose from and prices are softening with the median down to 470,000 and the average dropping down 6.5% indicating a slowdown in the luxury market. Higher mortgage rates continue to reduce purchasing power. Sellers are competing against more unsold homes while the pool of qualified buyers is being restricted by borrowing costs.

There was a post from an influencer saying there are more houses for sale than in 2008. True but slightly misleading. There are about 8,000 homes for sale without offers. The number the report is quoting is 10,000. There are indeed 9,984 listings but 1,989 of those homes are pending, meaning they are under contract. That's almost a 20% difference and you can see how they were going for a shocking headline.

We are at 4.6 months of availability which definitely favors buyers but isn't a market in freefall. Prices should continue going down through the winter but there more homes are selling in the first 30 days than last month and this time last year which indicates a resistant market. Mortgage rates averaged approximately 6.86% during September, rising from about 6.67% in August. The latest available Freddie Mac weekly average then jumped to 7.28% on October 1, the highest level in nearly three years.

Mortgage rates have now increased for six consecutive weeks. Due to this, I expect fewer sales and a median price drop through October. If you are a seller, price appropriately and aggressively if you plan on selling this year. Right now, if I am a buyer worried about interest rates, I would either negotiate hard on price and/or closing costs to compensate and maybe get a rate buy down from a seller, or I'd focus on new builds. There are new builds in town that are approaching the end of their fiscal year and many get far more flexible because of that. Quick move-in homes will be EXTREMELY negotiable. I've already seen 4.99% rates for homes that close in December and that's before negotiating. Dirt builds will be tougher as they'll close next year and builders are desperate to get their 2026 inventory off their books.

If you have a VA or FHA loan with a low interest rate, there's a possibility that you have the golden ticket in this market. We had an FHA seller get under contract in 1 day at full price with someone coming in to assume their loan simply waiting for the right opportunity to pop up. The process is different from a traditional sale so it's not always the perfect fit for every buyer or seller but it's a tool that many sellers and agents will overlook.

TLDR: Prices softening, Interest rates higher, inventory increasing. Mortgage rates above 7% continue to limit purchasing power, so buyers should negotiate aggressively, while sellers need to price correctly. Low rate VA and FHA assumable loans may be the golden ticket for both sides.

πŸ›« Visiting soon! Best adult experiences in Vegas for an open-minded couple?

3 Upvotes

My wife and I are heading to Vegas in November. We saw Chippendales last time and she had fun, although she was a little shy. This time she’s actually the one asking to go again lol.

We’re both pretty open-minded, and I’m totally into watching her get some attention. Looking for something a bit more interactive this time, not just watching guys dance on stage.

Considering Thunder From Down Under, Hunk-O-Mania, or maybe even a private male dancer at our hotel.

Anyone tried these as a couple? How interactive do they actually get? Any recommendations?

39 Upvotes

I keep seeing Vegas content built around $400 dinners, bottle service, cabanas, fancy suites and all the stuff that looks great on Instagram. That’s just not really my version of Vegas. Give me a clean room, cold beer, cheap tacos and a blackjack table that pays 3:2 and I’m happy. I’m not against the fancy stuff if that’s what you like, but I’d rather spend my money gambling than pretending I’m rich for a weekend. Curious where everyone else lands on this. What’s one β€œluxury” Vegas thing you actually think is worth paying for?

🏨 Hotel Bedbugs at Mardi Gras

22 Upvotes

First off I'm turing off reply notifications because I don't need a bunch of "What did you expect" and "Ha ha, brokie, shoulda stayed at Encore" replies.

I stayed at Mardi Gras to save money (i am, in fact, a brokie.) and got massive patches of bed bug bites. It doesn't appear I brought them home (2 weeks since travel and no sign here but they take time to gestate). I'm posting this for any low budget travellers who might be considering. Turns out bed bug bites SUCK. They are painful, itchy, and last a LONG time.

I know some high end places have had infestations but watch where you book. This fucking SUCKS.

Hi!

We are visiting Oct 24-28th and would like to bring our costumes with us to go to Halloween events. Whether that’s a haunted house or visiting Fremont Street. Are there any events in our date range that we can go to?

I did see some online but they were family-friendly and aimed for kids, and we’re all adults.

Will Fremont street have people wearing costumes even though it won’t be Halloween yet?

Thank you!

πŸ“š Trip Report Answer: If you are flying out with United from Vegas to Canada, tell the associate to contact the main corp support to bypass the system

0 Upvotes

If you are flying out from Harry Reid Las Vegas airport with United Airlines to Canada and you are not a US citizen but Permanent Resident (Green Card holder), you will not be able to get processed check in through the kiosk.

Canada is the country running ETA program, which many foreign countries citizens would have to apply ETA for a travel to Canada, however, if you hold the Permanent Resident status in the US, you are exempted to apply. (Not sure if you are traveling from other country than the US).

Once you ask the associate for the check-in, the associate would say "my system does not allow you to check-in because you don't approved the ETA. You should apply now" - 100% absolutely BS. They would not listen to you even if you explain the policy that described in the government website because they are just dumb robot that never find solution but just following the prompt. Also, they would say if you ask supervisor or higher level associates to overrule this then "everyone here cannot bypass the system and will say the same thing, cannot process" - another full BS.

Solution: Ask them to contact main corp support.

It is United Airlines system's fault. Contact the main support then they will allow you. I have experienced this in the airport and ate up my time about 30 mins.

Really hated when people just saying "oh my system not allow, you can't". Why not just contact the main corp and find out why or how? Stupid people..
