Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon Course
Transportation for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon
The Las Vegas Monorail will be the only Strip transportation option available during the Humana Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon & ½ Marathon, which will close Las Vegas Boulevard South when it takes place Sunday, Nov. 17.
Year after year, thousands of runners and spectators attending the Marathon and its four days of events rely upon the Monorail for getting to and from the start and finish lines of the weekend’s races.
Road Closures for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon
Most road closures and detours will be in effect between the hours of 2:30 pm and 11:00 pm on Sunday, November 17. Please note, a few portions of Las Vegas Blvd will be closed earlier or reopened later due to start line set-up/finish line set-up and breakdown.
Between 2:30 pm and 3:00 p.m., Police and event personnel may implement a soft closure along the entire racecourse.
The streets will reopen on a rolling basis as soon as the last participant has passed, and all course support materials have been removed. Streets along the earlier miles of the route will open earlier than roads along the end of the route.
