Las Vegas isn’t just neon lights – the valley is packed with unique local treats for Mother’s Day.

From special brunches to outdoor escapes, there’s something for every mom. Many restaurants roll out red-carpet menus or special freebies for moms: for example, Pancho’s Mexican Restaurant in Summerlin offers all moms a free “mom-mosa” with brunch entrees on Mother’s Day. At the upscale Bottiglia Cucina & Enoteca (Green Valley Ranch Resort), they’ll serve a special Mother’s Day brunch and even give Mom a complimentary rose and chocolate-covered strawberry. And at the Cabo Wabo Cantina (Miracle Mile Shops), moms score a free “mom-mosa” with any breakfast order. (For a fine-dining treat, restaurants like LPM at the Cosmopolitan put on lavish brunch affairs with complimentary roses and chocolates for Mom.)

• Brunch & Dining: Treat Mom to a memorable meal. Beyond the above specials, consider local favorites like Honey Salt (upscale comfort brunch) or the cozy farm-to-table menus at Therapy (Fremont East). Many Vegas resorts also host Mother’s Day brunch buffets (for example, the MGM resorts or local country clubs).

• Pampering & Spas: Las Vegas is famous for indulgence – book a spa day! The Green Valley Ranch Spa & Casino offers luxurious treatments in a peaceful retreat (aromatherapy massages, an open-air pool, etc.). Also consider Spa Aquae at the JW Marriott (they often run Mother’s Day specials like a complimentary glass of rosé and raffle gifts). Even off-the-strip locals’ spas like Spa Urbana or Rejuv MedSpa (Boise-based chain now in LV) can spoil Mom.

• Outdoor Fun & Nature: Outside the city are stunning vistas. A scenic drive or hike at Red Rock Canyon (just 20 miles west) or a picnic at Mount Charleston will beat the heat and offer fresh air. For a quick nature trip, Seven Magic Mountains (15 min south of town) is a colorful public art installation that makes for great photos. Or stroll the walking trails at Sunset Park or the Clark County Wetlands Park to enjoy wildflowers and birdlife.

• Family-Friendly Attractions: Bring kids along! Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay lets families get up close with marine life. The Container Park in downtown Las Vegas is an open-air village of boutiques and restaurants with a built-in play area (great for families with little ones). The Lion Habitat Ranch (Henderson) is a wildlife sanctuary where this Mother’s Day moms get in for only $10 – see lions, giraffes, and more.

• Local Flavors & Fun: Vegas has its unique experiences. Take Mom to the Neon Museum in downtown Las Vegas to explore the famous “Neon Boneyard” – over 200 historic Vegas signs are on display in an outdoor park. In Henderson, sample chocolates and mimosas at the Ethel M Chocolates Factory & Cactus Garden (they even have Mother’s Day tasting packages. Or enjoy world-class entertainment – maybe catch a matinee Cirque du Soleil or a concert at the Smith Center.
