Things To Do
Topgolf near MGM Signature
Recommended activity for families: all ages. Rent a bay for a couple hours, swing away and engage in a little friendly competition! Each bay can accommodate up to 6 players comfortably. They serve food, beverage and alcohol and there's a kids menu!
Jabbawockeez at MGM Grand
5, 6, 7, 8 and mmm mmm ugh, bop bop bam! We love a good show and Jabbawockeez is an entertaining family activity. If you love a good dance performance, some acrobatics and a performance you can bop your head to, this is it. And they have some cool merch too!
KÀ by Cirque du Soleil at MGM Grand
This show was breathtaking, full of suspense due to the acrobatics and immersive. Best seats are rows 5-15. Not suitable for the little ones, but teens are ok. The story line keeps you invested, the use of the auditorium is a full sensory experience that keeps you looking for where the performers will show up next, and the leaps and jumps keep you on the edge of your seat. The stage for this is a true feat of engineering! A must see!
Fremont Street
For that classic Las Vegas vibe we recommend taking a trip to Fremont St, the original downtown of the Las Vegas area. The area features a huge overhead lighting display, hosts live DJs and performances in the square outside, lots of souvenir shops, you can walk right onto the casino floors from the street and get some quick bites. Great in both the daytime or for nightlife. Check out the link for updated activities and events in the area.
AREA15
It's not just a destination but an experience. Area 15 has activities for the whole family including a kids play area, indoor zip line, restaurants, novelty shops and recently added experiences. Things we've tried: John Wick Experience, Interstellar ARC (their new virtual reality experience) and The Beast Restaurant.
John Wick Experience at Area 15
Located at Area 15, make your reservation, then check in at the concierge at the Continental Las Vegas. This venue is a true representation of the famous John Wick series, about an assassin coming out of retirement. We went in for a tasting and left with open contracts!!!! With a little focus, determination and sheer will, you just may make it out. If you know, you know and if not it's still fun. Tweens and teens ok with a supervising adult. You can pop in to the gift shop or for a drink at the bar whether you have tickets or not. "Si vis pacem, para vellum."
Interstellar Arc at Area 15
If you got any gamers in your crew or love you some Sci-Fi this is a great family activity. The Interstellar ARC takes you through a storyline about survival, space travel and an amazing set of virtual reality effects. Pack light to avoid having to part with your belongings. Located in Area 15.
Fantasy: The Strip's Sexiest Tease at Luxor Hotel & Casino
Adults ONLY!!! This one is true talent and in true Vegas style for a sexy, fun and flirty strip tease from an award winning show. We were comped tickets to the show by a friend and it didn't disappoint. We recommend for a couples date night.
Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen at Caesar's Palace
We've been here twice for our anniversary. The food does not disappoint! You must try the scallops and the sticky pudding. The service is top tier and we always get a table by the windows (The Strip View Experience). Reservations are highly recommended, otherwise the wait is long.
Bouchon at The Venetian
One word: Baguette! De le pan a la quiche c'est un magnifique restaurant. If you'd like to treat yo' self we highly recommend their weekend brunch. We haven't been for the lunch or dinner menu, but trust, we will be back.
Grand Wok Noodle Bar at MGM Grand
We love this spot for tasty and affordable dinner. They feature a pre-fix menu including appetizer, entree and dessert for less than $60/pp and they have vegetarian/vegan options. Chow down!
