Sports Books On the Strip in Las Vegas

While sports books aren’t really what comes to mind when you think of a sports bar, it feels like they at least deserve a nod on this list. Sportsbooks in Las Vegas are often located in hotels that also have a casino, but you can also find a few free-standing ones throughout the city. 

Sportsbooks are venues where you can place bets on sporting events and then hang around and watch the game or sporting events on one of their many screens. Sportsbooks usually serve drinks and cocktails, and some also serve food. Sportsbooks are typically set up with seating that’s a bit different from what you’ll find in your typical sports bar. Since the focus is entirely on what’s happening on the screen, up-close, theater-style seating is common. Sportsbooks also typically have a smaller seating capacity than larger sports bars. 

If you’re looking for a sports book on the Las Vegas Strip, check out some of the major hotels and resorts, including:

  • Caesars Palace Sportsbook
  • Bet MGM Sportsbooks at various MGM properties 
  • The Book at the LINQ
  • Venetian Race & Sports Book
