Parking in downtown Las Vegas used to be so simple. These days, though, things have gotten a little more complicated.
A great solution to the downtown Las Vegas parking dilemma is a structure Las Vegas visitors and locals sometimes drive right by. It’s the official parking of Fremont Street Experience.
The Fremont Street Experience parking garage is located at 111 S. 4th Street, Las Vegas, Nevada.

With more than 1,300 spaces, the parking structure at Fremont Street Experience is massive, so it’s rarely full, even when large-scale events are happening downtown, including concerts at Fremont Street Experience or nearby music festivals or other events.
The parking structure is centrally located for all of Fremont Street, including the SlotZilla zip line, the Fremont East district and all along the Fremont Street Experience, including its Viva Vision canopy and five blocks of casinos, shops, restaurants and bars.
The Life is Beautiful music festival was nice enough to paint a giant mural on our parking garage, so now it’s even easier to spot. Even from the surface of the moon, actually.
The basic cost of parking at Fremont Street Experience is $4 per hour, with a daily maximum of $20. (The lost ticket charge is $20.)
On rare occasions, a flat fee will be charged, such as in the case of concerts or large-scale events nearby (such as the Life is Beautiful Festival). The flat fee varies by event, but is typically $20, or about half the cost of other parking lots in the area at times of peak demand. It’s not bragging if it’s true.
A little-known fact is that Fremont Street Experience offers an excellent deal for monthly parkers. The monthly fee for monthly parking is just $45. For those who work in downtown Las Vegas, this is one of the best deals going!
Here’s how parking at Fremont Street Experience works, because parking is sort of boring until the moment you need (wait for it) parking!
When you pull into the Fremont Street Experience parking structure (look for the entrance off of 4th Street, between Fremont Street and East Carson Avenue.), grab a ticket from one of the two parking ticket machines.
Just push the button on the thingy to get your ticket (see photo below). Please don’t laugh. Sometimes, people don’t see the giant arrow.
Of course there’s small print. Life is a series of things with small print.
It’s important to remember the height limits in the Fremont Street Experience garage: 8-foot-2-inches. The height limits decrease as you move to the upper floors of the garage, so careful! Despite the fact it’s Las Vegas, nobody wants to see you with your top off.
It may seem obvious, but please take note where you parked.
We’ve tried to make it easier by having a different dice face on each parking level. The levels are also color-coded. Vegas veterans know you should always snap a photo of your floor level with your smartphone before starting your Fremont Street adventure.
When you leave, you can pay at kiosks on the mall level of the garage (the elevator lobby), or on the 2nd floor of the garage. Paying at the machine on the second floor of the garage is one of our best insider tips, because the kiosks on the first floor often have lines. The first floor kiosks are shown below.
If there’s a line on the first floor, make your way to the second floor kiosks to feel like a high roller.
Please note that while you can pay as you exit with a credit or debit card, no cash is accepted as you exit the garage.
Once your ticket is accepted, the arm raises (again, please, wait for the arm to raise).
It may seem obvious, but the Fremont Street Experience garage is, not surprisingly, the best place to park near Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas.
The Fremont Street Experience parking structure is very well lit and safe (our security officers work in the same structure), and the exit of the garage provides seamless access to the I-515 and I-15, back to the Strip.
Whether you’re visiting the casinos along Fremont Street, or the Container Park or bars along Fremont East, the garage at at Fremont Street Experience is a safe, easy, cheap place to park in downtown Las Vegas.
If you have questions about the best place to park at Fremont Street Experience in downtown Las Vegas, don’t hesitate to ask. Leave a comment and we’re happy to answer your questions.
If you're brand new to Vegas, this might not upset you as much as it should. For those of you that have been in Vegas for a while, you may still be upset about this. What are we talking about? We're talking about free parking for locals and casino guests. In the old days (only a few years ago), free parking for locals and free parking for tourists was the norm. You wouldn't have to reach into your wallet until after you got inside the casino.
Nowadays, though, many casinos on the Las Vegas Strip are charging for parking. But, thankfully, some Vegas casinos still offer free parking to locals and free parking to guests and tourists. If you want to see where you can park for free in Vegas and where you're going to get charged, check out our lists and charts below.

Parking Tips for Vegas Locals and Tourists
We have some more tips on parking! You can save some money when it comes to parking on the Strip.
- If you're going to be there for a while, consider taking an Uber, Lyft, or Taxi. A lot of times it can be cheaper than what the parking would cost you and you don't have to worry about a designated driver.
- While we aren't going to outright advocate this, you can always 'park next door' at a casino that does not charge for parking. The reason we aren't gung ho about this is we don't want to ever hurt the casinos that are being nice to locals by taking up their free parking space and giving our business to their neighbors.
- Check and see if the casino does any sort of parking validation. A lot of times they will give you free parking if you spend a certain amount of money inside, are a guest (on a staycation) or are a certain tier level among their rewards program. Remember, it never hurts to ask.
- If you have to bite the bullet, car pool if you've got a bunch of friends and you can split the cost. $20 four or five ways is much easier to swallow than $20 one way.
Parking on the Vegas strip used to be free everywhere!
As if the casinos aren't getting enough of our money when we gamble, go to shows, or eat in the restaurants, they want more of it now. Most casinos on the strip now have some form of charge for parking. The charge varies depending on the size of your vehicle, what property you are at, and how long you are there for.
Some casinos on the strip are allowing locals to park for free still, though, there usually is a time limit on that ( < 24 hours).
Normally, we would list all of the casinos in alphabetical order and give you all of the parking details like a few other sites do. However, since this site is dedicated to serving Las Vegas locals, we're going to separate out the casinos that offer some form of free parking first and then follow up with the ones that are charging regardless.
In the Casinos defense...
Aria Casino Parking Garage Door Opener
The casinos have claimed that the move to charge for parking is not directed at solely a money grab. The casinos have integrated some systems to help you find spots easier (the little lights that float over the spots that turn red when the spot is taken) and have made a few other improvements that they say are 'what you're paying for now'. We will reserve our judgment on whether or not we agree with the practice for locals, but let's just say we are definitely biting our tongues.
