High Roller Observation Wheel

The High Roller is a 550-foot observation wheel at The LINQ Promenade, 3545 S Las Vegas Blvd, on the Center Strip of Las Vegas, Nevada. It carries riders in 28 enclosed glass cabins, each able to hold a large group, through a single rotation of about 30 minutes. Because the wheel turns slowly and continuously, passengers board without it stopping, then stand or sit as the cabin rises above the Strip. From the top, the view takes in the Bellagio fountains, the Sphere and the casino towers to the north and south, plus the surrounding Mojave Desert and mountain ranges on clear days. Visitors reach the wheel through The LINQ Promenade, an open-air shopping and dining strip between the LINQ and Flamingo hotels. Tickets are sold in daytime, anytime (night) and Happy Hour tiers; the Happy Hour cabin is for guests 21 and over and includes an open bar for the duration of the ride. Prices rise after dark, when the Strip lights are on. Typical visits last 30 to 45 minutes including the walk through the loading building. The best photo angles are from the cabin side facing the Strip as it ascends, and the cabins are large enough that visitors can move around. The wheel is busiest at sunset and on weekend evenings, when lines at the entrance grow; weekday afternoons are the quietest. Weather such as strong winds can pause operation, and private events occasionally close the wheel for several hours. The monorail's Harrah's and The LINQ station is a short walk from the entrance.
