When to go à LAS VEGAS ?
When visiting Las Vegas, we strongly advise you to avoid the summer months, as temperatures can rise quickly. It's not uncommon to get well over 40 degrees during this period. Similarly, winter can be cold, with temperatures close to 0 degrees, and above all, some national parks in the region and neighboring states may be closed. April, May, June, September and October are good months to explore Las Vegas and the surrounding area.
With a very low precipitation rate (109 mm annually), the climate of Las Vegas is arid. The hottest period is from May to September with temperatures exceeding 40°C in July and August. While it is also very hot in summer in the large parks nearby, it can be very cold in winter. Snow is not excluded in the vicinity of Las Vegas, where Mount Charleston rises to over 3,000 meters.
Depending on the events you want to see, the timing of your stay may vary. Here are some tips on when to go to Las Vegas. Las Vegas hosts a number of "special" events throughout the year (not to mention a multitude of conventions). Two of them attract a large number of visitors each year: the World Series of Poker Tour (WSOP), which makes the city a promised land for seasoned gamblers (May through July with a finale in November), and the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (NFR), the national rodeo finals (about ten days in December).
High season. The peak tourist weeks are July-August, despite the city's desert climate and very high temperatures, and late December, during the holidays. The period between March 15 and May 15 is quite coveted by young Americans who go to Las Vegas for spring break. In addition, there are certain holidays of the year, such as Thanksgiving (4th Thursday of November) or important events. These include the World Series of Poker (June-July) and the annual rodeo championship (December). Don't overlook the many conventions held during the year that draw large numbers of visitors and cause many hotel promotions to disappear.
Low season. If you want to avoid the crowds in Las Vegas and want to enjoy the great national parks without the cold weather, choose the periods from May-June and September-October.

Discover LAS VEGAS
On the horizon, a bluish laser pierces the darkness of the desert. Like the beam of a lighthouse projected vertically, it is the harbinger of the capital of gambling and entertainment. In the heart of this Garden of Eden, slot machines replace flowering trees and dollars are picked like apples. In the casino halls, visitors stroll day and night, without distinguishing between evening and morning hours. A timeless journey is offered to them, between the hypnotic screens and the tension of a risky bet. In Sin City, daily life takes place in hotels with endless corridors, which sometimes lead to exorbitantly priced culinary and dancing delights. Outside, crowds flock to the ballet of the Bellagio fountains, admire the city from the top of the Linq Ferris wheel, or be surprised by the roar of the Mirage volcano. A world of its own opens up to you.
