While The Strip may be the first thing that comes to mind when many people think of Las Vegas', the Fremont Street Experience offers just as much glitz and glamour. With sprawling casinos, live music and even a high-flying zip line, it is clear that there is plenty of fun to be had off of The Strip.
The Fremont Street Experience is a five-block entertainment distinct located in the original downtown Las Vegas. The area is largely characterized by a sprawling pedestrian mall that houses some of the city's most historic casinos, including the Golden Nugget Las Vegas and the Four Queens Hotel and Casino. The area is also known for its outdoor concerts and the SlotZilla zip line that runs directly above Fremont Street.
For those attending Trend Hunter’s Las Vegas innovation conference who are looking to avoid The Strip without sacrificing all the fun, the Fremont Street Experience is the perfect alternative.
