So I am heading to Vegas in a few months for the first time, coming for an event. Will arrive Wednesday night, leave the following Tuesday afternoon. We've made some plans: Wednesday night we are renting a car and heading to the Grand Canyon - we want to see the stars at night! We got a hotel near the Grand Canyon so we can catch the sunrise and then spend the day checking things out, head back to Vegas in the late afternoon / evening. Thursday and Friday night will be spent in a hotel on the strip, Saturday and Sunday on Fremont St. Monday night is TBA (see below). We want to see the Beatles Grand Cirque, Body by Balls, and do the Big Wheel. Possibly the First Friday art thing, as timing will work. I want to check out the sign graveyard place too. Most of Saturday is taken up by the event that is bringing us to Vegas in the first place. I am considering roadtripping it to Arizona to see a friend on Sunday while my friends ATV in the desert, although I am not too keen on a 5hr one way solo trip on unfamiliar roads..
So here is the kicker - I don't drink much (one is plenty), I don't really gamble, and I don't 'go clubbing' (I am in a happily committed relationship so I'm not interested in hook ups haha)...Any suggestions for things to do? I'm looking for things Vegas locals might know that tourists don't.
Finally, the last day I will be there - Monday into Tuesday I will be alone. My friends all fly out Monday but it was substantially cheaper for me to fly out Tuesday, so here we are. Any recommendations for things that are nice to do alone? Any place that I NEED TO AVOID because it is unsafe for someone alone?
TL;DR Looking for fun Vegas happenings that aren't the usual gamblings or drunken hookups
