There are many free things to see and do on the Las Vegas strip during your visit to Las Vegas. Here is my list of the top 5 free things to see and do. The listing is in the order I suggest you view these attractions. I would suggest you start in the early evening so that you have time to visit each attraction. Experiencing each of these attractions will surely be a night to remember in Las Vegas. All of these attractions are FREE.

Fountains of Bellagio

The fountains of Bellagio are on display every half hour during the day and more often in the evenings. The fountains dance to musical scores and every show is different. Water canons and colored lights add to the visual nature of this attraction. I would suggest you view this attraction at night for the best experience. You can’t miss the fountains located right in front of the Bellagio. Prime viewing is available next to the Las Vegas Strip. You may choose to watch this show both before and after your visit to the conservatory and botanical gardens. Bellagio Las Vegas

Volcano at the Mirage

In the front of the Mirage next to the Las Vegas Strip is the erupting volcano. This show includes fire, water, music, and is well choreographed for a thrilling attraction. A state of the art sound system makes the volcano come alive as you can actually feel the rumble of the volcano. The best views of the show are right up front, so arrive a few minutes early. A bonus of getting there early is that on a cold evening in Las Vegas, the volcano with actually help to warm you up for a moment. Eruptions start every night at 7pm and erupt every hour on the hour until 9pm.
