## How to Beat Allegiant Stadium’s 75-Minute Rideshare Trap

When 65,000 fans pour out of Allegiant Stadium after a Sunday Night Football game or stadium concert tour, rideshare queues on Dean Martin Drive routinely exceed 75 minutes. Smart groups walk 12 minutes east across the car-free Hacienda Avenue Bridge straight back into Mandalay Place—grabbing a post-game booth at Flanker or riding the glass elevator up to 64th-floor Skyfall Lounge until traffic evaporates.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How long is the walk from Mandalay Bay and Luxor to Allegiant Stadium?
12 to 14 minutes flat across the Hacienda Avenue Bridge, which Las Vegas Metro closes completely to vehicles before and after major stadium events.

### Are Mandalay Bay, W Las Vegas, and Luxor connected indoors?
Yes—the air-conditioned Shoppes at Mandalay Place skybridge connects Mandalay Bay and W Las Vegas directly into Luxor (and onward indoors to Excalibur) without stepping into heat or traffic.
