LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Wynn Las Vegas announces free self-parking at its self-park garages of both Wynn and Encore for all guests, without limitation, and without the need for validation.
The new policy will go into effect on Wednesday, May 1.
Earlier this year the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority said tourism from Southern California has dropped.
And Anthony Curtis, Las Vegas Advisor, said Wynn's move Monday was most likely in response to that adverse public reaction to parking fees on the Las Vegas Strip.
"I think the customer is willing to spend money, but they don't want to be gouged,” Curtis said.

Also, for valet parking at Wynn and Encore, non-hotel guests and residents can receive validation upon receipt of a $50 spent at the property.
While valet currently remains free for overnight hotel guests at both Wynn and Encore.
