Las Vegas may be a tourist destination, but local residents deserve to have fun too. After all, what’s the point of living in the “City of Entertainment” if you’re not taking advantage of it?
With that in mind, I thought it would be fun to construct a breakdown of attractions and things to do in Las Vegas that offer a locals discount.
I’ll link to each deal so you can book, or verify the deal before making the trip.
On The Strip
Caesars Entertainment Shows: Caesars properties are offering discounts to locals on entertainment & shows. Offers include special pricing, a % off, or a fixed dollar amount off the regular price.
Show deals include:
- $69 Tickets to Discoshow
- 40% off Rupaul’s Drag Race
- 35% off Menopause the Musical
- 30% off Wayne Newton
- $10 off Donny Osmond
- $10 off X Burlesque, X Country, or X Rocks
- 20% off Chippendales
- 25% off Criss Angel
- $10 off PIFF
- $10 off Mat Franco
- $40 Tickets to Battlebots Destruct-A-Thon
- 25% off Colin Cloud
- 35% off Potted Potter
- 35% off Paranormal Mind Reading Magic
- 35% off MJ Live
Note that show deals & discounts aren’t always the “deal” they claim – Always price out tickets at 3rd parties like Vegas.com before buying to ensure you’re getting the best deal.
Golden Knights Locals Menu: The menu at T-Mobile Arena just got a bit cheaper, as the Knights are offering locals several items for just $5.50, including popcorn, hot dogs, pretzels, water, nachos, and soda.
Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay: NV residents can save $3 per ticket as part of Shark Reef’s locals discount. Tickets need to be purchased at the box office vs. online.
Swingers Crazy Golf at Mandalay Bay: A newer mini golf concept, I left unimpressed with the “Swingers experience” at full price.
That said, the short round of golf and blaring music may be tolerable at the $22.50 discounted rate locals are eligible for.
HyperX Esports Arena at Luxor: While anyone can walk in and play video games by the hour for a fixed price, Las Vegas locals get double time for the same price with a NV ID.
Bodies… The Exhibition at Luxor: Nevada residents can save $5 on admission to Bodies with a valid ID, redeemable at the box office.
Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition at Luxor: My favorite attraction in Vegas, Titanic is offering locals $5 off.
Play Playground at Luxor: A 21+ venue, Play Playground offers over 20 fun, easy-to-understand games that’ll generate laughs, conversation, and competitive juices.
I recently stopped by Play Playground and learned they offer 20% discount to Nevada residents, but tickets must be purchased in person at the front desk.
Big Apple Coaster at NYNY: Locals can ride New York New York’s rooftop roller coaster at a $7 discount. Tickets must be purchased at the box office.
Dining at NYNY: 10% discounts are being offered at America, Broadway Burger Bar, and Gonzalez Y Gonzalez.
Topgolf behind MGM Grand: Nevada residents receive 25% off regular walk-in pricing Monday-Friday.
Locals can also score walk-in pricing of $50 per bay on Sundays.
Atomic Golf: A similar concept to Topgolf at STRAT, Atomic is offering locals an extra hour of free golf with any bay purchase. You just need one NV resident per group – Just let your server know upon arrival.
Princess Diana – A Tribute Exhibition: See over 700 artifacts from Diana’s life at Crystals, which is located in front of Aria on the Strip. Nevada residents can save $4 per ticket as part of their locals discount.
FlyOver Las Vegas: Found in the Showcase Mall on the south end of the Strip, FlyOver gives you the opportunity to take a virtual flight over the western United States, Iceland, or both.
Impressively, locals can save 50% on rides and will receive a free photo. The resident discount is described as being available for a limited time, so ensure you double-check it’s availability via the link.
Flow Rider at Planet Hollywood: Nevada locals can score a $10 discount on this opportunity to surf on Planet Hollywood’s rooftop pool deck in the middle of the desert.
Real Bodies at Horseshoe: Real Bodies offers a locals discount of $5. Like Bodies… The Exhibition at Luxor, Real Bodies uses actual cadavers to highlight how the human body works.
Eiffel Tower Experience at Paris: A 20% discount for locals is offered by Paris’ Eiffel Tower Experience, which will allow you to view Las Vegas from 46 stories above the fray.
High Roller at LINQ: Nevada residents can receive 20% off High Roller tickets.
FlyLinq at LINQ: Nevada locals can save 20% on FlyLinq tickets at the box office with a NV ID.
Madame Tussauds at The Venetian: The popular wax museum is offering Nevada residents $10 off tickets.

On Fremont Street
Neon Museum: Nevada residents can save a WHOPPING 50% on museum admission. The deal was recently extended through December of 2025, so act quickly!
Mob Museum: Steps away from Fremont Street, the Mob Museum offers locals a discount of around $15 per ticket (depending on the pass purchased).
Tickets can be purchased in advance online, and a Nevada ID needs to be produced for each discounted ticket.
Off Strip Deals
Atomic Museum: The National Atomic Testing Museum serves up a $4 per adult discount for those with an NV ID. The attraction tells the story of nuclear technology in the United States, which includes an in-depth look at the Nevada Test Site.
Allegiant Stadium Tour: Allegiant Stadium offers a 10% discount on tours to Nevada Residents – I recently toured the home of the Raiders and enjoyed my experience!
Omega Mart at Area15: Las Vegas locals can save $10 per ticket to the most popular attraction at Area15 by booking through their website and entering your zip code before selecting your ticket.
I recently stopped in – See my Omega Mart Review!
The Punk Rock Museum: Stocked with thousands of artifacts, The Punk Rock Museum does an expert job of showcasing the history of the musical genre.
In addition to museum-like displays, The Punk Rock Museum also offers a tattoo parlor, bar, and jam room that allows visitors to play with band-used instruments – Pretty unique.
Locals can save $19 with a Nevada ID.
Springs Preserve: Nevada residents pay only $9.95 to get into Springs Preserve (kids are only $4.95), representing a savings of $9 on an adult ticket.
Springs Preserve is a collection of attractions that include a butterfly habitat, botanical gardens, splash pad, playground, and several museums that aim to educate visitors on the history of southern Nevada and the area’s scarce water resources.
PopStroke at Town Square: Locals can score a $5 discount on tickets to the mini-golf course that looks, feels, and plays like a real golf course.
Hopefully, I was able to help you find some Las Vegas discounts for locals that are attractive options. Even though most locals prefer to steer clear of tourist hubs, it’s fun to take advantage of all they have to offer once in a while!

I’m a former software salesman turned Vegas aficionado. While the craps table is my preferred habitat, I pull myself away to explore new attractions, shows, restaurants, and outdoor activities around Las Vegas with the intent of sharing my experiences.
Ultimately, I just want to help folks plan a better trip and save a few bucks in the process.
