You can take your cocktail with you on the ride โ 130 feet into the air, 360-degree views of the Strip, drink in hand. Liftoff Bar & Ride at AREA15 is exactly what it sounds like, and the Golden Hour happy hour makes it the most elevated happy hour deal in Las Vegas. Literally.
The Liftoff Bar & Ride happy hour runs MonโThu 4โ7pm as part of AREA15’s Golden Hour program โ 20% off wine, beer, and specialty cocktails at participating venues across the complex. The bar menu leans into the aviator theme with specialty cocktails like the Peach & Rosemary (Ketel One Botanical, St. Germain, tonic, lemon) and the Strawberry Lemongrass (Grey Goose, lime, strawberry syrup, mint, fresh strawberries).
Order This:
- Drink & Ride combo โ one specialty cocktail from the Liftoff Lounge paired with a ride ticket; the most efficient way to do both
- Any specialty cocktail (20% off MonโThu 4โ7pm) โ order before or after the ascent, or bring it up with you
On Fridays and Saturdays 7pmโmidnight, Liftoff hosts Block Party with food trucks, drink specials, local vendors, and outdoor games โ so the weekend has its own draw. But the MondayโThursday Golden Hour window is the quieter, smarter visit: discounted drinks, shorter lines, and sunset from 100 feet up over the Strip that reviewers consistently call the highlight of their trip. Go at dusk. ๐
Golden Hour MonโThu 4โ7pm, 20% off wine, beer & specialty cocktails. Open daily 11:30amโ10pm. Ride tickets required separately. Located at AREA15, 3225 S Rancho Dr.
