This famous, six-block stretch of road was a popular hangout for the Rat Pack, showgirls, mobsters, and everyone in between. The heart of Downtown Las Vegas beats around the clock as a six-block, pedestrian-only thoroughfare lined with retro and revived casinos, open-air bars, cheap eats, oddball street performers, a humongous zip line, and the world’s largest (and most literally over-the-top) light and sound shows. Situated north of the Las Vegas Strip in Downtown Las Vegas, Fremont Street was the city’s actual birthplace, famous for block after block of the city’s most iconic neon signs and marquees adorning some of Las Vegas’ first casinos, like Binion’s Horseshoe, the Golden Nugget, the Pioneer Club, and many more.

Long before the towering mega-resorts, Cirque shows, and 24/7 nightlife and entertainment of the Strip came to define Las Vegas forever, there was Fremont Street.
