Las Vegas New Year’s Eve rider guide

It’s time to ring in the New Year, and with more than 300,000 people expected to be on the Las Vegas Strip to celebrate, we’re here to offer you safe, reliable rides to and from your destination.

Pick Up and Drop Off Locations

We’ve partnered with properties along the Strip to make sure your ride is as seamless as possible along with hosting the first ever Uber New Year’s Eve bash at the LINQ. When you’re ready to head home, tap the app to be directed to the nearest designated Uber pickup location.  

LINQ Promenade: Make your way to the parking lot behind the High Roller Observation Wheel, where Uber is hosting a pre-NYE party featuring entertainment from DJ Red. Also, be treated to speciality tastings from 3535 in LINQ and Bound at The Cromwell from 6pm-10pm. When your NYE festivities are done, head back to our heated lounge while you wait for your ride.

Luxor North Valet: Accessible from the west side of the Strip via Reno Avenue and Frank Sinatra Drive, the Uber pickup and drop off area is directly in the North Valet. An easy walk from the road closures, the North Valet is also accessible via Luxor Casino or Sky Bridge from the Excalibur.

Mandalay Bay Convention Center parking lot: If your night takes you to the South Strip, the Uber pickup and drop off location is in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center parking lot on the west side of the street. Walk towards the Convention Center and Shark Reef for an easily accessible location to get on and off Russell Road and the I-15 freeway.

SLS Las Vegas: Our designated pickup and drop off location for the North Strip, SLS is located on the east side of Las Vegas Boulevard with access from Paradise Road and Sahara Avenue. The pickup location is at the Paradise entrance to the hotel.

More Useful Information 

Know before you go

As you ring in 2017, you can get a glimpse of what’s to come with upfront fares. Before you request an Uber, you’ll see the total cost of your ride so there are no unwelcome surprises heading into the New Year. Fares may go up or down based on how many people are requesting a ride, so if it’s out of your price range, check back later for lower fares.

Split the fare

Start the party early by sharing an Uber with your friends, and you can even split the fare in the app. Or select uberPOOL to share the cost with other riders heading your way — it can be a fraction of the price as uberX!

Confirm your driver

New Year’s Eve is going to be busy, so make sure you get into the right car with the right driver. Double check your driver’s car model and license plate in the app before you hop in your ride.

Share your trip details

Whether you’re running early, late, or right on time, keep your family and friends posted by sharing your trip details with them straight from the app.

Leave your keys, take your friends

Since 2014, Uber has partnered with Mothers Against Drunk Drivers in the United States to help our communities get home safely, especially around the holidays. This New Year’s Eve, we ask you to take the pledge to #LeaveTheKeys at home and hop in an Uber instead.

Contact support

If you wake up in 2017 and realize that you lost an item back in 2016, don’t worry. You can contact your driver directly in the app to track down your lost items. Or contact our Help Center for all other issues.

Most of all have a happy and safe New Year’s Eve!
