With Father’s Day finally here and covid finally beginning to subside, people are looking for a great way to get out this Father’s Day and appropriately celebrate dad just as he deserves. Whether you live in Vegas or are visiting, there are many things to do this Father’s Day all over the Las Vegas valley; this is our list of the top 10 things to do with your father on his special day.

Let's start with some budget-friendly ideas:

12. A Proper Picnic

The Las Vegas Farmer’s Markets have a fantastic variety of food. It’s the perfect starting point for any picnic from baked goods, fresh produce, homemade bread and jams, salsas, hummus, etc. Fathers day 2022 is June 19th, a Sunday; I recommend hitting the market Downtown on Saturday from 8 am-2 pm if you prefer a head start on shopping. However, if you want to take dad along, there is a market on Sunday at Park Place 9480 S. Eastern Ave, Henderson, NV 89123, from 8 am-noon. If you go Sunday, the closest park to the farmers’ Market is Sunset Park, ← The best Park in Las Vegas for a picnic. Other great Vegas Parks are The Clark County Wetlands, Craig Ranch Reginal Park, and Mountains Edge Reginal Park.

All you will need is:

  • A picnic basket (or cooler) filled with some sandwiches, snacks, and a few of dads favorite drinks.
  • A blanket
  • A few water bottles
  • Perhaps a tiny music speaker
  • Maybe a board game or photo album to keep you entertained

Never underestimate a good ole fashion picnic. You’ll be surprised by how thoughtful, and warm something so simple can be.

11. Ride Scooters Downtown

If you want more of an adrenaline boost, what’s more fun than riding scooters in Las Vegas? The Best Las Vegas scooter rentals are Downtown for only $10 an hour. Book online to avoid lines or delays and take dad on a fun-filled day of hopping from spot to spot; you’ll be able to explore the Arts District, Main Street, Fremont Central, and everything in between. You can do a self-guided activity or just rent by the hour

 

10. Attend A Unique Happy Hour

Going somewhere new is always fun. If you and dad want to spend a few hours enjoying an ablation over a good conversation, check out one of these cool happy hour spots around the valley.

 

9. Take Him To A Cat Cafe

Is your dad an animal lover? Surprise him with a trip to the cat Cafes of Las Vegas. You can go to Rescued treasure by appointment from noon – to 6 pm for only $12 a person. Each session is about an hour long, and be sure to arrive at least 10 minutes early. Depending on where you live, Hearts Alive Cat Cafe may be closer. They have one-hour sessions from noon- 7 pm for $15 per person. This idea is great for dads who love cats. You guys can enjoy some coffee or tea and relax in a cute, cuddly environment that is calming and helps the community.

8. Visit A Shooting Range

If you or pops are gun owners, then preparing a day of manly activities should be a no-brainer. Grab your firearms and head over to Range Time, Where you can build your own experience starting at $30 when you BYOG. Their range upgrades include adding time with an instructor, purchasing ammo, or using their firearms. I recommend booking an appointment in advance online. Depending on your budget, you have many other options for ranges and shooting experiences. Range Time is an excellent option for those wanting to keep the spending light.

7. Throw Some Axes and Ride Go-Karts

One of the most popular Vegas things to do is spend time on Fremont Street. Tucked away in the hidden corner is a place called Neonopolis. In there lives Axehole and Gene Woods Racing Experience. Just west of the heart of Downtown Las Vegas, Neonopolis offers a plethora of entertainment, nightlife, and eateries. Next to these two activities is Dicks a hilarious restaurant and bar where the staff treats you rudely and calls you names as part of the experience. If you need to keep your budget low but have at least $120 to spend, this is a perfect way to show your appreciation on Dad’s special day.

 

6. Rent An Airbnb And Have A Pool Day

Good ole Airbnb is always in your corner when you need a quick rental with the right amenities without breaking your bank. In Downtown Las Vegas, listings like “The Vintage Gem” offer a fresh, clean pool, full kitchen, and a BBQ pit to make a perfect low-key Father’s Day. A smart way to save even more money would be to invite a few friends and their dads and make this a casual pool party. Most listings have board games, music speakers, and fire pits, so you can always find a way to keep everyone entertained.

5. Reeeeaaally Go Shooting

Above, I mentioned a perfect budget-friendly range; however, if you’re willing to go big for Father’s Day, I recommend https://www.battlefieldvegas.com/. They have both indoor and outdoor ranges, but more importantly, they will let you CRUSH A CAR WITH A TANK! Ok, ok, I know what your thinking, and your right. It’s expensive, Say $2500+, but they have many options and things to do around Las Vegas. The minigun, also known as the M-134, can fire over 4000 rounds a minute and is only $245 for 100 rounds. What’s excellent about battlefields is they allow kids ten years and older to shoot. They also offer free pick up in a humvee (minimum age 6 yrs old).

Something just as unique is https://machinegunexperience.com/ They have the 1930s Fully Automatics from worldwide. The minimum age is also 10. Weapons start at $25 and packages as low as $99.

4. Go to a local event:

Support small locals events and attend one of these:

 

3. Take Dad To See Sting

Don’t miss Sting: My Songs at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace at 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, United States. Sting is an artistic pseudonym given to Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner, an English actor, and musician. His unique musical style that mixes jazz, reggae, classical music, world-beat, new-age, and rock has been loved by the whole world since his solo career started in 1985. Before this, he was a songwriter, singer, and bassist for The Police, a new-wave rock band. This position propelled him to become one of the world’s best-selling artists. 

 

2. Battle It Out At Kiss Mini golfing

KISS by Monster Mini Golf is a unique 13,000 square-foot “KISS themed” attraction that showcases an indoor glow-in-the-dark custom-designed, rockin’ 18-hole miniature golf course filled with state-of-the-art video, design, and never-seen-before KISS props. The environment is filled with arcade games, a special event room, a colossal-sized KISS, and rock ‘n roll gift shop. In addition, a live DJ rocks the house throughout the days, and many “Crazy, Crazy Nights” with continuous KISS music, trivia, contests, and prizes creating a destination embraced by locals, tourists, and rockers of all ages.

1. Take Him On An E-Scooter Taco Foodie Tour

There are many Las Vegas Food tours, but only one takes you on E scooters. I find that one of the best things to do in Las Vegas is exploring The arts district and central Downtown area. Unlike the strip, it’s more local, artsy, and better for someone seeking a day filled with memorable moments that aren’t revolving around gambling and major chains. Atomic Scooters on Fremont Street Las Vegas offers The Original Top-Rated Taco Tour, and in addition to being a 5 Star activity, it’s only $58!!!
