See a Vegas Show

Shows like Cirque du Soleil productions (O, KA, Michael Jackson ONE, The Beatles LOVE), Blue Man Group, Penn and Teller, Magic Mike, and Criss Angel Mindfreak offer memorable entertainment.

Learn at Shark Reef Aquarium

Located at Mandalay Bay, visitors encounter more than 2,000 animals including sharks, rays, sea turtles, piranhas, and Komodo dragons. A VR theater provides immersive underwater experiences.

Explore AREA15

Opening in September 2020, this venue offers axe throwing, ziplining, VR bird simulation, bamboo forest walks, and specialty ice cream and candy shops with complimentary parking.

Lounge by the Pool

Hotels offer daybed and cabana rentals where families can enjoy water activities, cocktails, music, and food service throughout the day.

Five Iron Golf features golf simulators, teaching professionals, a full bar, and The Beast by Todd English restaurant exclusively at AREA15.

Hike Red Rock Canyon

Located thirty minutes from Las Vegas, the canyon provides multiple hiking trails for various skill levels. Early morning hikes are recommended due to intense desert heat.
