When it comes to March in Las Vegas, it’s easy to see why people from around the globe flock to the city. The weather is pleasant, with temperatures reaching the low 70s, and the building spring excitement is palpable throughout Vegas.
If you are planning a trip to Vegas this March for a vacation or a business convention, we have you covered with our guide to the best things to do in Vegas in March – ranging from big-name concerts to all-day pool parties to spring sports events and beyond.
One of the most popular months for a Vegas trip is March, which largely has to do with the appeal of the weather. It’s cool enough to walk around and explore yet warm enough to enjoy outdoor activities and parties, so make sure you have room in your suitcase for different situations and temperatures between day and night. The average high in March is 73°F, with lows around 50°F.
It can still get chilly at night, so pack some cozy pajamas along with a light jacket or sweater. Rain is a possibility in March, but it’s not a common occurrence. You can expect 2 days of rain in the entire month (and, luckily, Vegas is also known for its indoor happenings, too).
March is when Las Vegas truly starts to heat up with all of the festivities that come with spring and summer. Expect to have an action-packed time complete with your choice of activity, whether it’s a show, a sunshine-filled pool party, or a sporting event.
March brings spring breakers to Las Vegas and ushers in pool party season, too. All across the city, you’ll find a number of pools offering different pool party experiences. For example, Circa Stadium Swim® is a massive outdoor amphitheater with 6 pools, all heated to perfect temperatures so those chillier spring nights are still enjoyable. You can catch sports viewing parties, an incredible poolside menu, great drinks, live music, and more.
If live music is on your radar, Vegas pools are the place to be. On any given day, you’ll find a lively pool party complete with flowing drinks, music from renowned DJs, and more. On most days of the month, Tao Beach Dayclub at the Venetian has DJs spinning, while Wet Republic Ultra Pool at MGM Grand has big names like Steve Aoki performing at its pool at the end of the month.
It’s a good idea to book tickets online in advance for your desired pool party (or pool parties!). They’re known to get crowded, and you don’t want to miss your opportunity to soak up that Las Vegas March weather, do you?!
What better way to welcome spring than with the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens’ spring display, which opens on March 9th. The 14,000-square-foot indoor botanical gardens get a makeover each season with fresh designs, blooming flowers, plants, and towering art installations designed with sustainability in mind. Many of the displays featured consist of plants and flowers from previous seasons.
Here, you should expect truly dazzling visions of spring and flowery scents for an amazing aromatherapy experience. Don’t forget your camera! This display of floral beauty will fill your viewers on your social media with delight.
March concerts in Las Vegas are proof that there has never been a better time to listen to live music in the city. Adele’s hugely popular Weekends with Adele residency continues at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace throughout March, Carrie Underwood’s residency kicks off, U2 takes over the Sphere, Kylie Minogue performs at the new Voltaire lounge at the Venetian – and that’s just the tip of the March concerts iceberg.
Beyond residencies, you can also catch some live music from other visiting musicians like Madonna and Bruce Springsteen, who are set to perform at the T-Mobile Arena in March (on different nights, of course). Or enjoy one of the many musicals, such as Funny Girl, happening in Vegas in March.
The NCAA college basketball tournament starts on March 19th. If you thought catching the game at your local hometown sports bar was fun, just wait until you’re cheering on your team at a bustling sports bar in Las Vegas with hundreds of other fans.
