Las Vegas Sporting Events

Get ready. Las Vegas is about to become a sports epicenter.

With the recent announcement of the Oakland Raiders heading to Las Vegas, combined with the Golden Nights and historic fighting organizations, there will be more knockouts than ever. Let the rivalry begin.

Fighting

Vegas is the boxing capital of the world, with more big time matches than any other city. Along with traditional boxing, the rise of MMA and UFC has fit with Vegas’s culture of extreme entertainment, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Fighting matches are often held on-strip at places like the T-Mobile area, MGM Grand, and Mandalay Bay Events Center. So place your bets, find your seats, and see the sweat.

The Golden Nights NHL Team

While you wouldn’t normally put ice hockey in a desert, it suits Vegas well. This NHL team was formed in 2017 and is already stirring up support. Games are played in the T-Mobile area-- right off the Las Vegas strip, behind New York New York Casino.

If you need to escape the desert heat, head to a Golden Night Hockey game and grab a cold beer.

The Raiders

When it was announced that the Raiders were moving to Vegas, we were psyched! We’ll gladly steal away one of California’s teams if it means a team of our own.

The Raiders were founded in 1960, and have quite the fan base. The “Raider Nation” nickname was given to diehard fans all over the world and gives you a snapshot of how loyal these fans are. You don’t want to do head to head with a Raider Fan- they will knock you out.

We're excited to see Raider Nation grow in Vegas. 

Sports Betting

Oh, and since we’re in Vegas, we might as well make a bet! Head to any major hotel casino and find the sportsbook. Place your bet (go for the parlay!), sit back and consume the massive screens and round the clock service. Some say the sportbook is better than being at the game. We’re not here to judge.
