Fun Family Friendly Attractions
You may think Las Vegas is for adults only, and while there is a lot for adults, there are many family friendly options. Kids of all ages will have a blast at places such as arcades, entertaining shows, and fun rides. Parents will love seeing their kids having a great time while they have fun too!
AdventureDome @ Circus Circus Hotel
Adventuredome
Time spent at the Adventuredome promises a fun filled day for all ages. Adventuredome at Circus Circus offers rides, games, and interactive fun for the entire family.

The fun doesn’t stop there; Spongebob takes the stage in a 4-D adventure.
Secret Garden @ Mirage Hotel
Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat
Find some real wildlife at the Las Vegas Mirage Hotel. The Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat has options for everyone.

You’ll learn all about the dolphins and get to hang out with them.
Midway @ Circus Circus Hotel
Midway at Circus Circus
Midway at Circus Circus creates a carnival atmosphere that is fun for the entire family. With more than 48 games, there is something for everyone. Play your best, because many games offer great prizes! Choose from a classic such as Skee Ball or a more contemporary game such as basketball. If you play all of the carnival games, then head over to the arcade for 200 more exciting games.
Fun Dungeon @ Excalibur Hotel
Fun Dungeon at Excalibur
Located at the Excalibur Hotel and Resort, the Fun Dungeon will provide activities for hours. However, the name does not do it justice because it is certainly no “dungeon”. Choose games from the past or the newest and coolest games. Also located in the Fun Dungeon is Spongebob’s 4-D ride. It is appropriate and exciting for the entire family. There is also a Dairy Queen and a gift shop for the Fun Dungeon’s biggest fan.
Fall of Atlantis @ Forum Shops
Fall of Atlantis
The Fall of Atlantis show, located in Caesar’s Palace, is an amazing 7 minute show. This show will take you on a bit of a history lesson with the legend of the Atlantis; but this is not your average history lesson. Animatronic figures, colorful lights, and neat special effects will have you captivated. Because this is a free show, be sure to arrive a few minutes early before the show so you can get a great viewing spot. While you wait for the show to start, check out the Forum Shops or the 50,000 gallon salt-water tank with colorful, tropical creatures. All shows start every hour, on the hour and are available 7 days of the week.
Street Experience @ Downtown Las Vegas
Fremont Street Experience
The Fremont Street Experience, across from the Plaza Hotel-Casino, will have you on your feet singing and dancing. Watch the glitzy costumed dancers take the stage and perform to the exciting music.
