Vegas is also a big spot for conventions. With nearly 50 conventions each year, the city sees roughly 500,000 business travelers per year - and that only includes those coming up for a convention. The most conducive times to visit Vegas are during the spring and fall. In April and May, daytime temperatures are pleasant, clocking in around 70 or 80 degrees. In September and October, the summer heat has abated, and the pools remain open.
Winter is pretty cold in Las Vegas, with snowcapped mountains in the distance.
If you're visiting during this time of year, it may be a good idea to wrap up, or spend most of your time in the casino. The desert sun is relentless during the summer months. Make sure you drink water at all times. Remember to keep a constant supply of sunscreen with you and don't stay outside if you don't have to. Transportation Taxis are the most convenient way to get around in Vegas.
