Check availability and book Neon Museum tickets

Overview

The Neon Museum is Las Vegas history you can walk through. Its outdoor Neon Boneyard holds more than 200 retired signs from the casinos, motels, and businesses that built the city's visual identity — towering letters and bulbs that once lit the Strip and downtown.

Unlike a traditional museum, most of the collection lives outside in the Boneyard, where the signs rest in a gravel lot under the desert sky. It's part art installation, part graveyard, and entirely Las Vegas.

Highlights

• 200+ historic, unrestored Las Vegas signs
• Outdoor Neon Boneyard exhibition space
• Evening visits with the signs illuminated
• Self-guided timed entry — go at your own pace
• Free museum app included with admission
• North of downtown, easy to pair with Fremont Street

Planning Your Visit

The Neon Museum is located at 770 Las Vegas Blvd N, Las Vegas, NV 89101 in Las Vegas. Admission is timed entry and prices vary between daytime and evening visits, so always verify the official website or a trusted booking platform before visiting, especially on holidays or during major Las Vegas events.

Las Vegas attractions vary significantly in how far in advance you need to book. For popular experiences, purchasing tickets online in advance is strongly recommended to avoid sold-out dates and to lock in the best available pricing. Walk-up tickets are often available but may cost more or have limited availability on busy days.

When planning your Las Vegas itinerary, consider grouping nearby attractions to minimize travel time. Las Vegas is a large city and the distances between attractions can be deceiving. The Strip itself is over four miles long, and walking between properties takes significantly longer than it appears on a map. Factor in travel time when scheduling multiple activities in a single day.

Las Vegas Attractions Context

Las Vegas has evolved far beyond its casino roots to become one of the most diverse entertainment destinations in the world. Beyond the gaming floors, the city offers world-class shows, immersive experiences, outdoor adventures, and cultural attractions that appeal to every type of visitor. The Neon Museum is part of this broader ecosystem of Las Vegas experiences.

The best Las Vegas itineraries balance big-ticket experiences with spontaneous discoveries. While planning in advance is important for popular attractions, leaving room for unplanned stops often leads to the most memorable moments. Las Vegas rewards curious visitors who venture beyond the obvious tourist path.
