City of Rock at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds is a premier open-air festival venue located on the north end of the Las Vegas Strip. Spanning roughly 37 acres with multiple stages and flexible configurations, it’s designed to host large-scale events with room to grow. The venue sits at the intersection near the southwest corner of Las Vegas Boulevard South and Sahara Avenue, and has historically hosted major acts and global festivals.
