Calgary to Las Vegas Extravaganza

Driving distance—Calgary to Las Vegas

The total driving distance from Calgary International Airport to Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport is 2083 km. In regular traffic, the travel time is just under 20 hours.

Getting to Las Vegas, NV, from Calgary isn’t too complex: You can simply drive Highway 2 through Lethbridge to Highway 4, cross the border at Coutts and ride the I-15 straight to Las Vegas. However, if you fly or take the most direct route, you’ll miss some amazing stops along the way that will veer you off the I-15 and create a longer journey.
