.vegas is the domain for Las Vegas, and its registry states plainly that anyone, anywhere in the world, is eligible to register one. It suits shows, trips, trade events and businesses that want the city's name in their address.
PD Hosting, a Nominet accredited registrar run from London, registers your .vegas as soon as you complete checkout. It then sits in your client area with your other domains, and we email you before it needs renewing.

Who a .vegas domain suits
A .vegas suits UK businesses whose customers are heading to Las Vegas or already there: a travel agent packaging Nevada road trips, a stag and hen organiser, a wedding planner arranging Strip ceremonies for British couples, or a tech company exhibiting at one of the large January trade shows and wanting a memorable address for its stand.
Performers and promoters use it too: a magician with a residency, a comedian announcing tour dates, or a poker player running a fan site.
- Trip, wedding and party packages for Las Vegas
- A microsite for a trade-show stand or conference
- Show, residency and tour-date pages for performers
- Hospitality and entertainment businesses in the city
Benefits of a .vegas domain
A name with built-in atmosphere
The word conjures entertainment and events, so a .vegas address does some of the marketing for an event or trip before anyone reads the page.
No American paperwork
There's no residency or US company test, so a British organiser can register in their own name and use it right away.
Easy to say on stage or on air
Short and familiar, it's easy to read out in a podcast, show or advert without spelling it out.
Why some .vegas names are held back or cost more
The .vegas registry publishes a reserved and premium names policy, and it explains why a search for an obvious word may not come back as an ordinary available name. Some names are kept for the registry's own operations and use, including allocations to founders or pioneers and promotional activity. Others are withheld to comply with ICANN policies. The registry can change either list at its discretion.
A second group are premium names. These are words the registry considers especially valuable or popular, and it sells them through auctions, buy-it-now offers or other channels at prices above the standard rate. So a premium .vegas costs more than the standard price, and it may also renew at a different rate.
For most UK buyers the practical answer is to combine the city with your brand or a specific product, such as yourshow.vegas or yourbrandwedding.vegas, rather than a single generic word. These are usually available at the normal price and are clearer about who is behind the site.
.vegas pros and cons
Works well if
- You run trips, weddings, events or shows in Las Vegas
- You exhibit at trade events in the city and want a memorable stand address
- You'd like an address that suggests entertainment
Look elsewhere if
- You want an everyday business address: the city's party image may not suit a law firm or clinic
- You need a US-wide presence: a .com or, with a real US connection, a .us
- You want to keep running costs low: .vegas renews for considerably more than most endings

.vegas questions
Does a .vegas need a Nevada address?
No. The registry's general policy says anyone, anywhere in the world, may register a .vegas and that there are no nexus requirements. Your contact details must still be accurate.
Why does a .vegas name show a higher price than usual?
It's probably a premium name. The registry sets aside especially valuable words and sells them at prices above the standard rate. Adding your brand or a specific product to the name usually brings it back to the normal price.
Does .vegas suggest gambling?
To some people, yes, as well as shows, weddings and nightlife. That suits entertainment and events but may be wrong for a professional service. Consider how your customers will read the address before you commit.
What will a standard .vegas name cost me to renew?
A standard .vegas renews at £90.95 a year, above its first-year price. Premium names may renew at a different rate. We remind you before each renewal.
Can I move my existing .vegas to you?
Yes. Unlock the name where it's registered now, ask that registrar for the auth code, then order the transfer with us and enter the code. The transfer price is in the price box.
