What it is
Allegiant Stadium is a 65,000-seat black dome sitting across I-15 from Mandalay Bay, and a Raiders home game is the easiest way to combine an NFL trip with a Vegas trip — the two are genuinely walkable from each other via the Hacienda Avenue pedestrian bridge. The roof is closed and the noise stays in, which makes it one of the louder rooms in the league.
Tickets
This is the softest ticket on the site. Non-sellout regular-season games routinely dip below face in the final 48 hours as local sellers cut losses, and the upper bowl in particular gets cheap. Divisional games and any fixture against a marquee visiting quarterback are the exceptions and hold their price. US resale is legal and liquid, so compare all-in totals rather than listing prices.
Non-sellout games dip below face inside the final 48 hours. Divisional and marquee fixtures do not.
Compare before you buy: the same seats are routinely 10-20% apart between marketplaces once checkout fees land. Price every one of them, and compare the all-in total at checkout rather than the listing price:
Best for: A global resale marketplace - worth pricing against the bigger two, and often the one still holding seats for European fixtures

| Where you sit | Cheap end | Typical | Top end |

Where to stay
Which part of Las Vegas you sleep in moves the total more than the seat usually does, and the cheap bed an hour out stops being cheap on the day. The tiers below are what actually works for this building.
Luxor or Excalibur
Cheapest rooms on the Strip that leave you a flat 20-minute walk over the bridge. Book the moment the event date is confirmed — south-Strip rates triple on fight and WrestleMania weekends.
MGM Grand or Park MGM
10 minutes further up, bigger pools, easy monorail/tram access, still walk-home distance if you don't mind 30 minutes.
Mandalay Bay / Delano
Closest full resort to the stadium — the bridge starts practically at its door. The Delano tower is the quiet option.
Getting there
- From the Strip: it's a 15–25 minute walk from the Luxor / Mandalay Bay end via the Hacienda Avenue pedestrian bridge over I-15. Comfortable pre-event; slow and crowded straight after the final whistle.
- Rideshare: dedicated pickup zones, but expect surge pricing and 30–60 min queues after big events. Walking back to a South Strip hotel is usually faster.
- From the UK: direct flights London–Las Vegas (10.5–11h). Land at LAS, you're 10 minutes from the stadium and 5 from the south Strip hotels.
- Game-day shuttles run from several Strip casinos for Raiders games — cheap and beat the rideshare crush.
Flying from the UK for Raiders season? Sort the ESTA first
British citizens travel to the US under the Visa Waiver Programme, which means no visa but a mandatory ESTA — an electronic travel authorisation you must hold before you board. Airlines will refuse boarding without one.
- Apply only at esta.cbp.dhs.gov — the official US Customs and Border Protection site. Dozens of copycat sites rank for “ESTA” and charge several times the government fee to type your details into the same form. There is no faster or better version; there is only the official one and resellers.
- Apply early, not at the airport. Most approvals come back in minutes, but CBP asks for at least 72 hours and a small share get referred for review. Do it when you book the flight, not the week you fly.
- It lasts two years, or until your passport expires, whichever comes first — so one application usually covers several trips. Check whether you already have a live one before paying again.
- An ESTA is permission to travel, not permission to enter. The decision is made by the officer at the border.
- Not everyone qualifies. Dual nationals of certain countries, anyone who has travelled to particular countries since 2011, and anyone with a prior visa refusal or certain convictions may need a full visa instead — which takes months, not minutes. Check before you book anything.
Fees and eligibility rules change, and the official site is the only place that is guaranteed current. We take no commission on any of this — there is none to take, which is rather the point.
Make a trip of it
Walk over the Hacienda bridge before the game and skip the rideshare queue after it — the queue routinely runs 30-60 minutes while the walk is 20.
