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.
Seat — 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. Check all three:
Best for: US events — deepest inventory for Vegas, NFL and arena fights
Fees added at checkout (~20-30%) — compare final price, not listing price
Best for: UK & European events, GBP pricing
Fees added at checkout (~25-30%) — always compare the all-in total
Best for: International sports specialist — often has allocations others don't
Prices shown are closer to all-in; good benchmark for the other two
Stay — where to sleep
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.
Go — 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.
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.
