Fremont Street Experience

Fremont Street Experience

Photo by Bob Goldman

With 12 million light modules and a sound system pushing 550,000 watts of power, it's no surprise that the Neon CowboyFremont Street Experience is a major attraction in downtown Las Vegas. Located on the west end of Fremont Street, the barrel vaulted canopy of lights covers a five block pedestrian mall. The mall is lined with casinos, slots, shops and restaurants; topped off with two performance stages. Each year, over 20 million visitors are entertained with free concerts and street performers.
The 90 foot high Viva Vision canopy displays over 16 million color combinations and in typical Las Vegas style, it's the world's largest broadcast screen. The FSE library holds 15 different shows, ranging from the psychedelic The Drop to a patriotic America Freedom. Here in southern Nevada, when the sun goes down the world's largest party begins.
