Beer Park

It’s game day every day at Beer Park, a fitting slogan for one of the best sports bars on the Las Vegas Strip. There’s no “I” in team, and this spacious rooftop patio at Paris Las Vegas makes everyone feel like they’re part of the winning team.

Beer Park is “America’s Greatest Tailgate.” Join in the fun with a spacious rooftop patio. The communal style seating blurs the lines between the home and away teams, but the cheers after scoring quickly reveal who’s rooting for who. There’s something for everyone with 75+ HDTVs perched around the patio screening games from all major sports events, from football to tennis to UFC. And more than 100 beers on tap.

Feeling the competitive spirit? There’s always friendly competition on the venue’s lawn games, including over-sized Jenga and Connect Four.

The George Sportsmen’s Lounge

Did you know a “George” is a gambler’s term for bigger tippers? So, whether you’re grabbing drinks at The George Sportsmen’s Lounge or win big at the adjacent STN Sportsbook, make sure you live up to the name!

The George Sportsmen’s Lounge at the Durango Resort delivers one of the most unique Vegas sports bar experiences. Inside, sports enthusiasts can enjoy chef-prepared American fare to fuel up for the big game. Before kick-off, tip-off, or face-off, secure your seat on the outdoor patio for a front-row seat to the action on the massive 4,200-square-foot digital LED wraparound screen. The patio is decked out with artificial turf, fire pits, and yard games to keep you entertained during timeout breaks. 

Don’t miss the beer taps shaped like sports trophies!

Flanker Kitchen + Sports Bar

Food and sports go together like halftime and concession stand runs. At Flanker Kitchen, you can have award-winning food served right to your table, so you won’t have to miss any of the game action, including the halftime commentary!

Kick off your meal with popular shareable starters like the crispy wings and tailgate nachos. Order the award-winning Bacon Smash burger with the Touchdown Burger upgrade. And the Signature Sauce Flight lets you choose your own sauce MVP for your meal.

After ordering, sit back and watch your favorite teams playing on 50+ TV screens. The updated audio/visual design makes it feel like you’re right in the stadium. It’s a popular pre-game spot for Raiders fans since it’s located at the Shoppes at Mandalay Place, with a pedestrian bridge connecting Mandalay Bay to Allegiant Stadium.

TAP Sports Bar

Ever since the Vegas Golden Knights debuted in Vegas in 2017, fans have claimed the TAP Sports Bar at the MGM Grand as their preferred bar (it’s just a 5-minute walk to the T-Mobile Arena). With their game day specials, you have a chance to become your own champion by the end of the game.

Tap House entices sports fans with 60+ TVs showing pro and college games. Also hanging sports banners and memorabilia around the bar. Bring your appetite to take the Tap Out Nacho Challenge. If you and a teammate can finish a massive tray of nachos within one hour, you’ll get the entire meal for free and your names enshrined on the Holy Nacho Sheet Pan Wall of Fame. 

Stay near the south end of the Strip? There’s also a Tap Sports Bar location inside Excalibur Hotel.

Raiders Tavern & Grill

If you don’t have tickets to see the Las Vegas Raiders live, a stop by the Raiders Tavern & Grill immerses you in Raiders Nation. It’s located inside M Resort, the official team HQ hotel of the Las Vegas Raiders, with everything Silver and Black outside Allegiant Stadium.

Raiders Tavern prioritizes the home team on its 45 + HDTVs, but shows other games when they’re not playing. It feels like a walk through the stadium with Raiders memorabilia decorating the bar and a Raiders merch store.

Visitors can expect typical bar food, including burgers, pizza, and pasta on the menu. But the real highlight is on the drink menu, featuring Intercept Wines and Woodson Whiskey from Raiders Hall of Famer Charles Woodson.

WSKY Stadium

Experience the excitement of Allegiant Stadium at WSKY Stadium. It’s located directly across the street. If you’re lucky, you’ll get a seat directly facing the stadium and the gameday action happening around it!

There are tons of pre- and post-game action at this sports bar. But if you’re staying for the game, it has 40+ TVs showing various sports and 80+ whiskeys to cheers after every score. It was voted the best happy hour in Las Vegas. For fans of international sports teams, or catching one of the overseas NFL games, it’s open 24 hours, so you’ll never miss a play.

WSKY is open to all ages and has free parking on non-event days.

Chickies and Pete’s

When ESPN awards a venue as the #1 Sports Bar in North America, you can trust that it’s a go-to spot to watch a game. This Philadelphia sports bar chain took its talents to the West Coast when it opened a location inside the Sahara Las Vegas. It maintains the famous Crabfries and an excellent atmosphere for any sports lover.

Crab and sports aren’t your typical gameday matchup, which is even more reason to visit. What sets the Las Vegas location apart is the William Hill Sportsbook, located right inside the sports bar, where you can bet on your favorite team.

The Stadium Arts District

Paint some sports into your Arts District experience with a stop at The Stadium. Nearly two dozen TVs decorate the walls like canvases showcasing the art of the game, from photo finish races to game-winners using perfectly drawn plays.

The Stadium is one of the newest sports bars in Las Vegas, opened in 2025. It’s already become a favorite for visitors staying in Downtown Las Vegas. It creates the ideal setting for game day with its wall-to-wall TVs and ballpark-inspired eats like Ballpark Nachos and the Stadium Cheeseburger.

Find Blondies inside the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood. Reservations are recommended for large sporting events.

The Front Yard

The Front Yard, located off the Strip in the Ellis Island Hotel, has a giant TV screen worthy of any big game. The 18-foot HDTV is the centerpiece of the two-story sports bar, making every table feel like a courtside seat.

The massive TV is just one of 20+ screens showing live sports. Beer and sports are the perfect team in this beer garden. Menu specialties including the beer-bringer chicken wings, pretzel with beer cheese dip, and a beer bourbon flight to wash it all down. It’s a place that fosters teamwork with communal-style tables and shareable plates.
