Best Shopping Malls in Old Vegas Area

"There’s nothing misleading about the name of this expansive mall, which has been a permanent part of the Las Vegas Strip for nigh on 40 Years. The Fashion Show Mall has a retractable 25-metre runway, the only one in the world, for models to strut their stuff on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons on the hour. Where this mall departs from Paris Fashion Week is that you won’t be looking at bizarre future concepts, but whatever is in season and for sale at the shops around you."

"If you want to escape the hot temperatures for some time, this Las Vegas Mall offers a stroll. Located at the western end of the Las Vegas Strip, it is one of the best shopping malls in Las Vegas. There are more than 250 boutiques and luxury brands and a variety of everyday brands such as Express, Banana Republic Nordstrom, and Forever 21."

"If you’ve never seen a live fashion show before, Fashion Show Mall is the place to do so absolutely gratis. The mega mall on the Strip hosts regularly occurring fashions shows on a retractable runway that rises from the ground."

"A five-block pedestrian mall, between Main St and N Las Vegas Blvd, topped by an arched steel canopy and filled with computer-controlled lights, the Fremont Street Experience has brought life back Downtown. Every evening, the canopy is transformed by light-and-sound shows enhanced by 550,000 watts of wraparound sound and a larger-than-life screen lit up by 12.5-million synchronized LEDs. Soar through the air on ziplines strung underneath the canopy from Slotzilla, a 12-story, slot-machine-themed platform. Gaudy, yes. Weird, yes. Busy: always."

"The Fremont Street Experience is mostly known for its overhead light show, Viva Vision, a spectacular display of lights and technology that fills the canopy on a regular basis. Street performers, impersonators and artists, known as buskers, are found all along the street level on Fremont Street, making a walk up and down the few blocks of the FSE feel like an adult carnival. A zip line ride, SlotZilla, zooms riders under the canopy and over the heads of the people below."

"Address: 707 Fremont StPhone: 702-359-9982Hours: 11am – 9pm daily. Right in the heart of the Downtown district of Las Vegas (just a 10 minute taxi ride from the Strip) is Downtown Container Park, a truly unique shopping destination where the stores are all made from shipping containers. Just that, plus the giant flame-throwing praying mantis at the gateway, gives you the immediate knowledge that this isn’t like any other shopping mall."

"Head over to Downtown Container Park for more fun free Las Vegas shows. Located on the corner of Fremont and Seventh Streets across from El Cortez Hotel & Casino, the Downtown Container Park is the funky local shopping center, made out of shipping containers. But it's not just a shopping center - here you can experience the wonderful creative artwork like the fabulous Praying Mantis who shoots fire."

"Container Park is an outdoor shopping center located in downtown Las Vegas. It’s a pretty unique setup with over 40 boutique shops, restaurants, and bars inside stacked shipping containers. There’s a kids’ playground with a 30-foot slide and an amphitheater with free daily live music, movies, and performances."

"Chocoholics won't want to miss this one-stop shop for everything an ice cream and chocolate lover could want. Enjoy a signature Hot Fudge Sundae with fresh house-made hot fudge or branch out into any of the other delicious treats on the menu. Conveniently located on the LINQ Promenade right across Brooklyn Bowl's entrance, Ghirardelli Ice Cream and Chocolate Shop won the Best of Las Vegas 2015 award for Best Ice Cream."

"The Linq Promenade has some of the best shops around, like the I Heart Sugar Store with a Chocolate Martini Bar. Not to mention the Linq, which is a great, slow ride that lets you see the entire strip while enjoying a casual (Not scary at all, time) LOL It has tons of street performers and vendors as well as great food and fun."

"A post shared by C A I L E E ✨ CONTENT CREATOR (@caileeschreck). The Linq is one of the newer hotels on the Las Vegas Strip and I love visiting the Promenade for restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Head down the Linq Promenade and strike a pose in front of the High Roller, an observation Ferris wheel, for a cute photo!"

"This is the hottest new attraction in Las Vegas that’s a mix of art, shopping, and food. It’s free to enter (though it requires tickets to control capacity) and there are plenty of murals and free art installations to browse. If you want to see certain exhibits, you can purchase tickets separately or as a bundle on the AREA15 site."

"With more than three miles of neon lights, Neonopolis lives up to its name with dazzling, eye-popping displays that will burn your retinas like all good Las Vegas attractions. It’s made of three separate building complexes that converge around a single, open-air courtyard. Thousands of bulbs and marquees are always shining, scrolling, blinking and flashing."

"If you and your kids are ready for some retail therapy, look no further than the shopping mecca that is Castle Walk Shops. Located at the Excalibur, you'll experience shops, midway style games, rides, as well as gifts and collectibles at unique and distinctive shops.

"Unique to Las Vegas, pick up some cheap thrills and get a taste of Hawaii at this outdoor shopping center. Comprised mostly of a collection of kiosks, it's a great place to pick up some small souvenirs, island-style fashion, and more."

"With two locations, Veganbites does its part to change the city’s nickname to Sweet City. Veganbites Bakery was the original locale, and Veganbites Restaurant is the second location on the west side that offers a breakfast and lunch menu. The tofu caprese salad rivals any with buffalo mozzarella, and the lemon crème gnocchi may cause some involuntary declarations of pleasure."

"At Café No Fur, everything is vegan, which means nothing comes from anything with fur (or feathers or feet or fins). The menu could easily pass for a classic American bar and grill, except for the fact that it's all vegan. Try a burger topped with bacon, a Philly cheesesteak, pizza, wings, ribs, buckets of fried chicken, or popcorn shrimp."

"Perhaps more in keeping with the theme of Sin City than any other vegan eatery in Las Vegas, Café No Fur is an atmospheric restaurant with vegan-themed posters on the wall. Just to note, food is presented by somewhat scantily clad servers. There is a deeper meaning behind that choice, though, since the theme is not wearing fur."

"This intimate Chinatown cafe offers plant-based comfort food including burgers, cheesesteaks, chicken fingers, and corn dogs. Cafe No Fur also has a breakfast menu with vegan breakfast sandwiches and loco moco made with Impossible meat."
