Destination Information

Las Vegas

Las Vegas is one of the few locations in the world that can so successfully and stylishly host important educational business events as well as fun, fantastic celebrations. You will enjoy the beauty of our Las Vegas conference site: Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa — a spectacular, expansive hotel in metro Las Vegas that you may never want to leave.

If you do venture outside of the Red Rock's doors, the wonders of Vegas await you. From the astonishing casinos that line the strip to world-class shopping, restaurants and entertainment options — many of which are free — you'll never run out of things to see and do once the TechServe Conference sessions are over for the day.
