Laughlin River Run 2016 Rules

Laughlin, NV


Laughlin River Run 2016 Rules, Traffic, Parking and Common Sense!





The 34th annual Laughlin River Run returns April 27th through April 30th.

River Run week is one of the busiest times of the year in Laughlin.   

There are only a few rules and reminders to make it safe and a fun enjoyable time for everyone.

• No glass or cans permitted on Casino Drive during the event.
   All alcoholic beverages must be in plastic.

• No nudity.

• No colors.  

• A curfew for minors (under 18 years of age) will be in effect from 6 pm until 5 am. from March 27th through May 1st.

• The state’s mandatory helmet law will be strictly enforced.

Keep the helmet law in mind as you may be crossing borders in the Tri-State area.  Helmets are required in Nevada and California. They are not required in Arizona.  They are also not required at the Avi Casino or the surrounding Fort Mojave Indian Reservation.  

Lane-splitting (motorcyclists riding between cars) is illegal in both Nevada and Arizona, whereas it is legal in California.


No sandals or flip flop type shoes should be worn while on a motorcycle.




Other Tips:  
  • Bikers can obtain parking spots at reserved parking sections at most of the casinos.  They even offer reserved, secured lots (for a fee).  
  • Space for cars is at a premium, and garages may fill up fast.  Valet is usually limited to only guests of the hotel and can fill up quickly.  


  • Other parking spots may include the Outlet Mall.  This again may fill up fast, though in the past two years, we have had no problem getting a spot when getting there early enough.     
  • In other years around the strip in past years there have also been "Bait Bikes" to deter theft. 
 
  • Do not drink and drive or drive and text.
