Will I be dissapointed in the weather in Vegas in late December? What about the crowds?
Justin c asked:
I’m planning on going to Vegas Dec 26-30. Last time I went it was late August and it was hot but very nice. Does anybody know if i’m gonna have to bring a winter coat to go around at night? Also, how crowded is it around this time? I’m sure people are all coming in for new years.

At night it does get cold, but I don’t think you’ll need a winter coat, just a nice jacket. Unless you go out in the dessert where it does get really cold.

I heard it is very crowded, everybody from LA (and other places) will go to Vegas for New Year.
But I have a chance to go there, I wont care about the crowd, just enjoy it…
I went there in summer, also crowded :).
I have a second chance, I will go there in winter.

Yes it is very crowded in Vegas for New years. I believe last year we had three times the people we normally have. The strip is very crowded and the police usually dont let you on the strip after 9 if you dont have a room key. and YES it is freezing out here around that time.

It can be cold, or nice. I’ve seen it low as 30, high as 70. December weather is unpredictable at best. Vegas is very busy that week, as people come for New Year’s weekend.
becki is wrong, anyone is allowed on the Strip for New Years, just have to be 18+, or with your parents. They do take cans/bottles though.
