Las Vegas is in the desert. Deserts don't have any trees to hold moisture in the soil and allow evaporation. The soil just absorbs the heat and reflects it back up. The lack of vegetation is caused by sparse rain

Lol, yes. A very scientific way to explain it.
Basically, there is no reason for human beings to be living where Las Vegas is. It is always this hot in the summer and it will be absolutely brutal to be outside for much time for many people. Be prepared.
Thankfully, the hotel and venue are one in the same, like with WC 2011, so you can greatly reduce the amount of time you need to be outside. Theoretically, if you were super boring, you could spend the whole weekend inside.
