Las Vegas is as recognisable as it is unique and offers an experience like no other. Beyond the 24-hour-a-day casino excitement, there are restaurants directed by renowned chefs, as well as major sporting events, exciting nightlife, headline concerts and immersive shows, drawing in millions of visitors a year.
Looking for adventure? Las Vegas has plenty to offer. Whether you like thrills by air, land or sea. The Stratosphere offers the SkyJump, which at 108 stories, it's the longest controlled free fall of its kind. You can also experience Slotzilla - a spectacular high-flying attraction where you get hooked to a harness and zip line right over the crowds on Fremont Street and under the giant video canopy. Also not for the faint hearted, you'll find the X-Scream and Insanity rides, waiting at the top of the tower, to spin and dangle you 900 feet above the ground.
Frightened of heights? No problem, you can also swim with the sharks in the Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay or if you have a need for speed, the Driving Experience at Las Vegas Motor Speedway is perfect for you.
Fancy something a little more relaxing? Vegas has something for everyone, with a diverse mix of fascinating cultural and civic attractions, as well as several interesting museums. You can learn about everything from local plants and wildlife to some local history at The Mob Museum downtown. The city also offers un-paralleled shopping experiences and a collection of the finest spas, treatments, salons and big-name stylists for a little extra indulgence.
Las Vegas is of course also famed for its headline shows and legendary entertainers. From Cirque du Soleil spectaculars, world-renowned concert headliners, Broadway-calibre productions, award-winning magicians and unique-to-Las Vegas production shows. You’ll also find classical performances, jazz show, dance troupes and cultural shows at the world-class Smith Center for the Performing Arts.
Feeling hungry yet? Over the last decade, Las Vegas has transformed itself into a top culinary destination.

As the night draws in, you can experience a variety of nightspots. From elaborately themed clubs to the new wave of upscale “ultra-lounges” sweeping the Strip. For something a little different, visitors can also head to Downtown Las Vegas. It's known as "Vintage Vegas," but Downtown is also the center of revitalization with a booming entertainment and dining scene.
