Hours from the CES 2027 transportation flyer (as of Sep 29, 2026) and the CES dates and hours page. CES notes locations can change.
Vegas Loop: free across the LVCC
CES says the Vegas Loop is free across the LVCC campus, and you can ride it for a fare between the LVCC and Encore, Fontainebleau, Resorts World, SAHARA and Westgate.
The five LVCC Loop stations
- LVCC South Station
- LVCC Central Underground Station
- LVCC Central Plaza Station
- LVCC West Station
- LVCC Riviera Station
The Boring Company says the LVCC Loop cuts a 45-minute cross-campus walk to about 2 minutes. If you’re going between West Hall and the other halls, the free Loop is usually the easy call. Our LVCC Loop station guide has each stop.
CES-week Loop hours and fares aren’t out yet. On Nov 1, 2026, the hours calendar on vegasloop.com only ran to Dec 11, and no CES pass was listed. Check Loop hours and Loop tickets closer to the show.
LVCC to the Venetian Expo
The Monorail doesn’t stop at the Venetian Expo, so CES runs the free Tech Express (Route 9) between the two main campuses. A CES badge is required.
- LVCC
Central Plaza, near the Monorail station walkway - Venetian Expo
Curbside on Sands Ave
CES lists Tech Express buses about every 10 minutes. At the Venetian, the hotel shuttles (Routes 3–8) use the underground shuttle area instead.
Free hotel shuttles
CES runs free shuttles from select official hotels from Tue, Jan 5 to Sat, Jan 9. You need an official CES 2027 badge to ride. Find your hotel’s route and boarding spot in the CES Transportation Hub, linked from the CES transportation page, which also shows live wait times.
| Day | Shuttle service windows |
|---|---|
| Tue, Jan 5 | 8:00 AM–6:00 PM |
| Wed–Fri, Jan 6–8 | 7:30–10:30 AM · 10:30 AM–4:00 PM · 4:00–6:30 PM |
| Sat, Jan 9 | 7:30–10:30 AM · 10:30 AM–2:00 PM · 2:00–4:30 PM |
At the LVCC, Routes 1–8 board in both the South Hall and West Hall bus areas. The West Hall area also serves Fontainebleau and CES Foundry. At the Venetian Expo, Routes 3–8 use the Venetian underground shuttle area.
The C Space Shuttle (Route 7) runs to ARIA, Wed–Fri.
The flyer splits each show day into the service windows above. Some hotels are served only in certain windows, so check your route in the Hub.
Getting to the airport
CES lists a paid airport shuttle, $10 one-way, from the LVCC South shuttle area and the Venetian underground shuttle area:
| Day | Airport shuttle |
|---|---|
| Thu, Jan 7 and Fri, Jan 8 | 12:00–7:00 PM |
| Sat, Jan 9 | 12:00–5:00 PM |
The Vegas Loop also has a station at Harry Reid Airport (Terminals 1 and 3). See our airport Loop guide, and check vegasloop.com for whether airport rides are running on your day.
Las Vegas Monorail
The Monorail stops at the LVCC (Boingo Station at Las Vegas Convention Center) and has seven stations: MGM Grand, Paris Las Vegas, Caesars Palace, Harrah’s/The LINQ, the Convention Center, Westgate and SAHARA. It doesn’t serve the Venetian Expo.
| Day | Monorail hours (per CES) |
|---|---|
| Mon | 7:00 AM–midnight |
| Tue–Thu | 7:00 AM–2:00 AM |
| Fri–Sun | 7:00 AM–3:00 AM |
CES says discounted Monorail passes are offered through CES registration. We don’t list Monorail prices because we couldn’t confirm the CES price on an official page.
Local tips for CES week
- Hockey nights: CES notes the Vegas Golden Knights play at T-Mobile Arena on Thursday at 6:30 PM and Saturday at 7:00 PM. Allow extra time if you’re heading near T-Mobile Arena then.
- All four LVCC halls are in use (North, Central, South and West), so allow time to cross the campus.
- Badges are needed for every CES shuttle, including the Tech Express.
