The Neon Museum Offers Daytime & Night Tours!

With fall comes cooler temperatures, which means the Neon Museum is again offering daytime tours as well as night tours.

Daytime tours begin at 10 a.m., with the last tour of the day being offered at 4 p.m. until Nov. 2; beginning Nov.3, the last daytime tour will take place at 3 p.m.  All tours are guided and provide intriguing insight, not only into the history of neon signage in Las Vegas, but also the city itself and its array of colorful personalities.

Night tours begin at 6:30 p.m. with the last tour taking place at 8:30 p.m. until Nov. 2; beginning Nov. 3, evening tours will begin at 5 p.m. with the last tour taking place at 7 p.m. Colorful up-lighting has been installed throughout the Neon Boneyard, dramatically illuminating the iconic signs in the museum’s collection. While most of the signs themselves are not electrified, the new custom-designed lighting will showcase them beautifully. Evening tours are an attractive option for those who want to experience the signs from a dazzling new perspective.

The Neon Museum is open seven days a week. Its La Concha visitors’ center is open daily from 9:30 a.m. To tour the museum’s Neon Boneyard exhibition area, all visitors are advised to pre-register for a guided tour on the museum’s website at www.neonmuseum.org. Walk-up visitors without an advance booking may not be able to join a tour due to limited capacity.

Daytime tours of the Neon Museum are $18; evening tours are $25. Discounts are available for Nevada residents, active military, veterans, students and seniors. For more information about the museum and to book your tour, go to www.neonmuseum.org or call (702) 387-6366.
