SUBSTANCE is located at 450 Fremont St #270, Las Vegas, NV 89101, inside Downtown Las Vegas (Neonopolis). Getting to the venue efficiently is important because Las Vegas traffic and rideshare surge pricing can add unexpected time and cost to your night. Here are the best ways to reach SUBSTANCE and what to expect when you arrive.

Rideshare via Uber or Lyft is the most popular transportation option for visitors heading to SUBSTANCE. Rideshare to Neonopolis, 450 Fremont St. SUBSTANCE is on the second floor — take escalators or elevators inside. During peak hours between 11:00 PM and 2:00 AM on Friday and Saturday nights, expect surge pricing that can double or triple the normal fare. To save money, consider leaving your hotel between 10:00 PM and 10:30 PM before surge kicks in. The NoCoverVegas guest list includes a free entry service from your hotel, which eliminates rideshare costs entirely and gives your group a VIP arrival experience.

If you prefer to drive, Underground garage at Neonopolis available. Fremont East street parking and nearby paid lots. Keep in mind that Las Vegas nightclubs serve alcohol and the responsible choice is always to use a designated driver, rideshare service, or the free entry offered through the NoCoverVegas guest list. If you do park, give yourself an extra 10 to 15 minutes to walk from the garage through the casino to the venue entrance.

Taxis are available at every major hotel on the Strip but tend to be more expensive than rideshare for equivalent distances. The Las Vegas Monorail runs along the east side of the Strip and can be useful depending on your hotel location, though it stops running at 2:00 AM on weekends. Walking is feasible if your hotel is within one or two properties of Downtown Las Vegas (Neonopolis), but keep in mind that distances on the Strip are deceptive and what looks close on a map can be a 15 to 20 minute walk in dress shoes or heels.
