June Weather in Las Vegas
June in Las Vegas is extremely hot and dry. Daily high temperatures climb from the mid-90s°F (≈35°C) in early June to over 100°F (38°C+) by late June. Overnight lows generally stay in the 70s°F, rarely dropping below ~61–70°F. June is virtually rainless (sunshine is nearly guaranteed), and humidity is very low. Visitors should expect intense sun and very warm evenings.
Summer Travel Tips
Hydrate constantly. Always carry a full water bottle and drink regularly (don’t wait until you’re thirsty). Southern Nevada health officials urge travelers to “bring an adequate supply of water” and sip it often in summer heat. Water-rich snacks (melon, cucumber) and electrolyte drinks can help too.
Use sun protection. Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 15+ or higher) to all exposed skin, reapplying every 2–3 hours. Wear a wide-brimmed hat (not just a baseball cap) and UV-blocking sunglasses. Light-colored, loose clothing and neck/face cover-ups help shield you from sun.
Stay cool indoors during midday. Nevada health officials advise staying in air-conditioned spaces during the afternoon heat. Plan outdoor activities for early morning or evening. Use midday to relax in your hotel, visit indoor attractions (museums, casinos, shopping), or nap. Remember that strong sunlight peaks roughly 10 AM–4 PM.
Clothing and gear. Lightweight, breathable fabrics and comfortable walking shoes are a must. Even though outside is hot, casinos and theaters blast air conditioning – pack a light sweater or shawl in case you feel chilly indoors. Also bring lip balm and moisturizer to combat dry desert air.
Transportation. Be smart about getting around. Walking long stretches on the Strip or Fremont Street in midday heat can be exhausting. Consider the Las Vegas Monorail (runs along the Strip), Deuce/SDX buses, resort trams (e.g. between Mandalay Bay–Excalibur–Luxor), or rideshare/taxis to shorten walks. (Most airport cabs let you open all car windows for ventilation.) When at resorts, use covered/air-conditioned corridors instead of walking across hot parking lots or streets.
Plan ahead and book early. June sees numerous conventions and tourists (summer break, weddings, etc.), so hotels and shows can fill up. Las Vegas still stays busy in summer. Book accommodations, restaurant reservations, and tickets for shows or clubs well in advance to ensure availability. Unlike some off-season months, deep discount deals are rarer in summer, so budget accordingly.
Conclusion
Following these tips will help you enjoy Las Vegas’s vibrant summer scene safely and comfortably. From staying cool and hydrated to scouting ahead for tickets, a little planning lets you make the most of June in Sin City.
