Friday at Star Trek Las Vegas
80 guests are scheduled for Friday, August 7, 2026, alongside 2 scheduled events.
What I’d do on Friday
Star Trek Las Vegas 2026 hits the Rio on Friday with 80 guests booked, and the priority is George Takei — $120 for a photo op, and he's only at the con this one day. That's the whole call: if Friday is your single day, build around him first, then Alexander Siddig ($90) and James Cromwell ($80), both also Friday-only. Cromwell's the one I'd push people toward who are sleeping on him — Zefram Cochrane across four different series' worth of Trek history doesn't come around twice this weekend.
After that, Juliet Landau is Friday-exclusive at $90 and worth working into the schedule before you commit to the $80 tier of de Lancie, Dorn, or Wang, who at least have other days if Friday gets crowded out. The Outpost Room runs all week at $25-$100 depending what you're after, so I'm not front-loading that today. No published price yet on the Treksperts stage programming or the Roddenberries concert — I'd hold judgment on both until Vegas411 gets actual numbers, but the Roddenberries meet and greet is worth watching for details.

After hours
Had enough of the dealer room? Tonight I’d do AREA15 + Meow Wolf's Omega Mart — 3215 S Rancho Dr — ~2 miles from the Rio, the closest escape on my list. Or walk the bridge over to the Gold Coast for a quieter, cheaper drink.
