Las Vegas continues to rank as one of the world's most exciting vacation destinations. World-class restaurants and celebrity chefs are raising the bar on the dining experience, while an influx of designers and upscale specialty boutiques make Las Vegas one of the premium shopping destinations in the country. Year-round Las Vegas is home to the top names in entertainment, sizzling nightlife, luxurious spas and a collection of top golf courses.

Fields of Green
Whether you are dancing under the lights of the Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas, strolling the Las Vegas Strip or browsing the shops at Monte Lago Village at Lake Las Vegas, in Las Vegas you are never far from a golf course. Each of Vegas's 60-plus courses is within a one-hour radius of the city, offering challenging play and beautiful desertscapes, flowing waterfalls, rolling greens and mountain views. In fact, Las Vegas was named the top emerging golf destination in the world by the International Association of Golf Tour Operators. The year-round golfing weather also offers a pleasant reprieve for attendees from colder climates, while courses designed by the top names in golf—including Nicklaus, Fazio, Dye, Jones, Weiskopf, Casper and Palmer—create a memorable experience.
