1. Where Can I Find Parking on the Strip?
You can find parking on the Strip at most casinos. There is no street parking on Las Vegas Boulevard itself; you’ll have to find a casino or parking garage. Just some of the casinos that offer parking include:
Many casinos have self park options alongside pricier valet services. Valet services are handy for those who wish to enter their resort at check-in and not have to walk through a hot garage. But, as with many things in Las Vegas, both valet and self parking come at an expense.
2. How Much Does Parking Cost on the Las Vegas Strip?
Parking on the Las Vegas Strip can cost as low as $9, but the typical price is $15 for the first few hours. Some casinos, like Horseshoe Las Vegas, have a higher price on the weekends (up to $23). Valet parking can be as low as $15, but most casinos offer a daily flat rate that ranges from $25-$40 depending on the day of the week.
3. Are There Any Free Parking Options on the Las Vegas Strip?
Yes, there are free parking options on the Las Vegas Strip, though they are few and far between. Fewer free parking options is a development within the last decade. Prior to this, parking at the Las Vegas Strip was free. But nowadays, you will have to pay around $15 at the very least. Casinos with free parking include:
- Circus Circus (this is where you will also find that cheap $12 valet for up to 2 hours)
- Palazzo
- Sahara
- Treasure Island (TI)
- Venetian
- Encore / Wynn
If you’re just visiting the Strip for the day, simply pick a hub area that you’d like to explore, and then park at the nearest free resort.

6. Is There RV or Oversized Vehicle Parking Available on the Las Vegas Strip?
