Sorry. I meant to say “Big Game Parties”. Virtually every casual restaurant and bar in town will have some sort of special or package that Sunday. From my browsing, the minimum price to reserve a seat hovers around $150 but obviously gets higher the better and more luxurious the location. The cheapest spot I’ve found for an individual reserved seat is at the Flamingo sportsbook, which you can get for $100 and comes with two drink tickets.
However, you don’t need to break the bank to watch the game with a crowd. Technically, you don’t need to even break out the wallet. Here are three places you can watch the Super Bowl for free:
Palms
The Palms offers a free viewing party at their Pearl Theater. But that may not be their best deal. As of this writing, their William-Hill sports lounge at the Palms has a reserved seat, high-top package available for 4-6 guests for $200:
- Double order of chicken wings
- 22″ pizza
- 6 hot dogs
- 12 bud lights (two buckets)
If you’re willing to pay, this is the best value package I’ve seen.
Westgate
As usual, the SuperBook at Westgate is hosting its free viewing party. If you’ve never been and are a sports betting fan, the SuperBook is a must-visit. If you’re on a budget, you might as well make it out during the Super Bowl for your first go. There’ll be entertainment and, like the free party at the Palms, food and beverages for purchase.
Beyond hosting their yearly bash, the SuperBook is known for being one of the better books to secure drink tickets:
Free drink tickets never an issue at the @SuperBookNV – bet, tip, receive. The Westgate in general has a very liberal comp system as well. 🍻 https://t.co/AvVsNE34d0 pic.twitter.com/NYflPWzhbD

DTLV Events Center
If you want some fresh air, the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center has a free outdoor bash. You have the option to upgrade for a reserved table or “mancave”. No word if women are allowed. The DTLV Events Center is a cool space and, while I’ve never been there for gameday, it has plenty of space to move around at your leisure.
Let me know of your favorite place to watch the game in Vegas even if you have to pay. I know there are some great deals lurking out there.
