Las Vegas September 2021

See a Raiders game in Las Vegas

The Raiders face the Baltimore Ravens in their first game of the regular season on September 13. After playing to empty stands last year, the new Allegiant Stadium is finally welcoming fans at 100% capacity. The game also kicks off the season for Monday Night Football. Make sure to place a bet at one of the casino sportsbooks around town.

Attend a Festival in Las Vegas

After taking a break last year, the Life is Beautiful festival returns to Downtown Las Vegas Sept. 17-19, taking over several blocks on and around Fremont Street with live music stages, art, food, comedy and motivational speakers. Green Day, Billie Eilish, Tame Impala and Megan Thee Stallion are among the headliners this year.

The Punk Rock Bowling festival returns to the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center Sept. 24-26 with the Descendants, Circle Jerks and in an odd choice, Devo as headliners. The festival marks a busy weekend, not only with concerts but after-parties, pool parties and other affiliated activities.

The iHeartRadio Music Festival, sponsored by one of the biggest radio conglomerates in the world, is all about big hits and big names. Top acts in pop, rock, country, R&B, rap and EDM will play the T-Mobile Arena September 17-18. There’s usually one or two classic acts thrown in as well.

See a Show in Las Vegas

Las Vegas is back in full swing with entertainment resuming at full capacity. After a long delay due to the pandemic, Michael Buble finally performs at the T-Mobile Arena on Sept. 24. Classic rockers Styx play a three-night stand at the Venetian Sept. 24-26. Over at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, music fans can check out residencies by Morrissey and Keith Urban. Lavish Vegas has the best ticket prices for these and other shows.

Celebrate Labor Day in Las Vegas

Labor Day Weekend is September 3-6 this year, and could signal the biggest rush of visitors since Memorial Day Weekend. Expect restaurants, casinos, and swimming pools to be packed over the four-day holiday weekend.

Hang Out by the Water in Las Vegas

As the heat of summer cools down just a bit, September is a great month for visiting Lake Mead. The body of water was created when Hoover Dam was built, and is one of the best places for recreation near Boulder City. Rent a boat, kayak or lounge in the sun. Lake Las Vegas in Henderson is also a great option. Enjoy a sunset cruise or bounce around on an inflatable obstacle course in the water. Explore The Village to check out shops and restaurants.
