The LINQ High Roller has two main standard ticket options: Daytime and Anytime.
The Daytime ticket is valid from 12 pm to 5 pm, while the Anytime ticket can be used from 12 pm until closing.
Current starting prices are:
| Ticket | Adult | Youth aged 4–12 |
|---|---|---|
| Daytime | $29 | $10 |
| Anytime | $39 | $19 |
Children aged 3 and under can ride free with a paying parent or legal guardian.
Both tickets include the same approximately 30-minute rotation in an air-conditioned cabin. The main difference is when you can ride.
Choose Daytime if you want the lower price and clear views across the Las Vegas Valley.
Choose Anytime if you want to ride after 5 pm, especially for sunset or the illuminated Las Vegas Strip.
Prices can rise on peak dates and taxes and fees may be added.
Check availabilityThe High Roller rises 550 feet above The LINQ Promenade and takes roughly 30 minutes to complete one full rotation.
There are 28 enclosed cabins, each holding up to 40 people. Standard tickets use shared cabins, although the number of people actually riding with you depends on demand.
The view changes considerably between day and night, so choosing the right ticket matters more than choosing between two different ride experiences.
The ride itself is the same.
| Feature | Daytime ticket | Anytime ticket |
|---|---|---|
| Valid | 12 pm to 5 pm | 12 pm to closing |
| Adult price from | $29 | $39 |
| Youth 4–12 from | $10 | $19 |
| Ages 3 and under | Free | Free |
| Ride duration | About 30 minutes | About 30 minutes |
| Cabin | Shared | Shared |
| Best for | Lower price, daytime scenery | Sunset, evening and night views |
| High Roller height | 550 feet | 550 feet |
These are starting prices. Rates can vary depending on the date, demand, taxes, fees and booking platform.
The Daytime ticket is the cheaper way to ride the High Roller.
It is valid from 12 pm until 5 pm and gives you the same cabin and the same full rotation as the Anytime ticket.
What changes is the view.
During the day, it is much easier to see beyond the Strip. You can look across the Las Vegas Valley towards the Spring Mountains and Red Rock Canyon, while buildings, hotel pools and other details on the Strip are clearer below you.
The Daytime ticket makes most sense if:
A family can save quite a bit by choosing daytime tickets, particularly because youth pricing is considerably lower during the day.
For more help planning a family visit, see our High Roller with Kids guide.
Yes, particularly if you want to see more than the Strip.
At night, Las Vegas itself becomes the attraction. In daylight, you get a better sense of where Las Vegas sits within the much larger Nevada landscape.
You can also see considerably farther on a clear day.
For a detailed comparison of the views, see High Roller Day vs Night.
Check availabilityThe Anytime ticket gives you more flexibility.
It can be used from 12 pm until the High Roller closes, so you can ride during the day, at sunset or after dark.
Current operating hours are:
Hours can change for private events, holidays and special dates, so check availability before making plans around a specific time.
Choose the Anytime ticket if:
For many first-time visitors, the Anytime ticket is worth the extra cost simply because Las Vegas looks completely different after dark.
The Sphere, hotel towers, illuminated signs and the Strip become much more prominent once the sun goes down.
Sunset gives you a little of both Las Vegas experiences.
At the beginning of the rotation, you may still be able to see the mountains and desert. As the cabin climbs, the city lights begin to take over.
Because one rotation lasts approximately 30 minutes, timing matters.
If sunset is important to you, check the local sunset time for your visit and plan your arrival accordingly. Do not assume that arriving exactly at sunset means your cabin will be at the top of the wheel at sunset.
See our High Roller opening hours and best time to visit guide for more detailed timing advice.
Both Daytime and Anytime standard tickets give you:
The attraction reaches 550 feet at its highest point.
Allow more than 30 minutes for the complete visit because you still need time to enter, pass through the attraction and board the cabin.
An hour is a more comfortable amount of time to set aside in your Las Vegas itinerary.
The standard ticket option linked from this page remains valid for three days from the date you select.
That gives you some flexibility if your plans change while you are in Las Vegas.
It is still a single-use ticket. Three-day validity does not mean you can ride the High Roller on three different days.
Once you use the ticket, it is finished.
The ticket is also non-refundable, so check your travel dates before completing the booking.
Availability depends on the ticket option and date.
The important distinction is the admission window:
Daytime: 12 pm to 5 pm
Anytime: 12 pm to closing
If your priority is an evening or night ride, do not buy a Daytime ticket simply because it is cheaper.
For live dates and ticket options:
Check availabilityThe standard ticket is the regular High Roller experience and is open to visitors of all ages.
The Happy Half Hour is a separate 21+ experience with an in-cabin open bar and bartender during the rotation.
| Feature | Standard | Happy Half Hour |
|---|---|---|
| Age | All ages | 21+ |
| Open bar | No | Yes |
| Bartender | No | Yes |
| Rotation | About 30 minutes | About 30 minutes |
| Best for | Sightseeing, families, couples | Adults wanting drinks during the ride |
Do not choose Happy Half Hour merely because you want a night ride.
The standard Anytime ticket already allows you to ride after dark.
Check Happy Half Hour availabilityYes.
The standard High Roller experience is suitable for all ages.
Children aged 3 and under ride free when accompanied by a paying parent or legal guardian.
Youth tickets apply to children aged 4 to 12.
Children aged 12 and under must remain under adult supervision while at the attraction.
For practical information on strollers, families and visiting with younger children, read our High Roller with Kids guide.
For most visitors, the choice can be made very simply.
Buy Daytime if price matters more than the Las Vegas lights.
You get the same 30-minute rotation, pay less and get better views of the mountains and wider valley.
Buy Anytime if seeing Las Vegas after dark matters to you.
You pay more, but you can ride during the most popular sunset and evening periods.
If this is your first trip to Las Vegas and you are only planning to ride the High Roller once, I would usually choose the Anytime ticket because it gives you more flexibility.
If you have already seen Las Vegas at night from another observation deck or hotel, the Daytime ticket offers a surprisingly different perspective.
Buying in advance makes sense if you already know which day you want to visit.
The ticket linked below is delivered electronically, so you can keep it on your phone.
There is no need to build your Las Vegas itinerary around a visit to the ticket counter first.
Check availabilityIf you are comparing passes, resident offers or other ways to reduce the price, see our High Roller discounts and promo codes guide rather than choosing a ticket purely on the headline price.
Both include the same approximately 30-minute High Roller ride. Daytime tickets can be used from 12 pm to 5 pm. Anytime tickets can be used from 12 pm until closing, including evening and night hours.
