What November is like in Las Vegas
November is mild, with highs near 66F (19C) and cool evenings. It is good hiking weather, and most pools close or cut back their hours as the month goes on. Crowds and prices stay fairly high. The Formula 1 race weekend on the Strip spikes hotel rates and closes roads for days around it.
It suits hikers, couples and anyone who wants shows, dining and the desert in cool, clear weather. If you are not going for F1, check the race dates and book around them. For pool time, come in April or early October instead.

Things to do in Las Vegas
Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area
The 13-mile scenic drive and trails like Calico Tanks. A timed-entry reservation is required for the scenic drive in the busy season, so book ahead.
Valley of Fire State Park
Red sandstone, petroglyphs, and the Fire Wave trail. Go early; trails can close in extreme summer heat.
Hoover Dam
About 45 minutes away. The dam tour and the bypass bridge walkway are the highlights.
The Neon Museum
The boneyard of classic Vegas signs. Evening tours when the restored signs are lit are the best.
The Mob Museum
In a former federal courthouse downtown. Strong history, a working speakeasy in the basement.
Sphere
The giant LED venue near the Strip. Even if you skip a show, the exterior is worth seeing at night.
Beat the crowds
- Search the convention calendar before booking. A quiet midweek can cost a fraction of a trade-show week at the same resort.
- Arrive Sunday, leave Thursday. Weekend rates, especially Friday and Saturday, can be double or triple.
- Book Red Rock timed entry early and hike at sunrise. In spring the lots fill by mid morning on weekends.
- Resort fees and parking fees add up. Compare total cost, not headline room rates.
Know before you go
- Casinos, restaurants, and shows run all year. Big resident shows take breaks on some weeknights and for a few weeks a year, so check before you plan around one.
- Pools at many resorts close or reduce hours from roughly late fall to early spring. Heated pools stay open at some, but pool parties are a spring and summer thing.
- Desert parks restrict hiking in extreme heat. Valley of Fire has closed some trails in summer; never hike midday from June through September.
- The F1 race in November closes stretches of the Strip and adds traffic for days around race weekend.
