    WOW!!! Talk about a memorable experience that I will never forget!!! My boyfriend and I are about to mark four years of dating and Sin City Smash was a fun place to go to for our anniversary weekend! I had some friends that went to one of these a couple of years back and I've been wanting to try this activity ever since. This is something I haven't done before and I wanted to check it off my bucket list. I did a little research on them online and they had an anniversary package available, which was $169 for two people. The package provided 15 minutes of smashing and 30 minutes of axe throwing - 45 minutes of fun. We were required to sign a waiver form online and give out our shoe and shirt sizes prior to participating. We parked near TJ Maxx because it was a very quick walk to and back. I booked our reservation for later in the night due to the excessive heat warning that was issued this week. We arrived 15 minutes early for our 8:00pm reservation, where we were given a safety briefing and a complimentary locker to store our stuff in. After putting on our safety gear, we were guided to a separate private room with a table in the center. On the table was a printer, two computer monitors, multiple plates, a vase, and fake glass flowers. We got to smash these with a crowbar and a baseball bat. When I smashed that printer to pieces, I felt like I was in that scene in the movie Office Space. The soundtrack that we picked, called rage rock, made the entire experience way more eventful. One of the computer monitors was very difficult to break. No matter how hard we smashed it, it just wouldn't break, but eventually it did. After our time was up, we were given a complimentary bottle of water and to rest off for a few minutes. We were sweating like crazy! After our quick break, we moved along to the axe throwing session. Not only we were given an axe to throw, but we were also given a throwing star (aka shuriken). They had a few throwing games to choose from, like Connect Four and Tic Tac Toe. We also chose our custom names - me being "Axe-ccident" and my boyfriend being "Axe-hole". My boyfriend being the stronger one, he scored way more than me, haha. This activity was well worth the $169. Great for locals, tourists, singles, and groups! We had soooo much fun and I think I want to do this again in the future!

    Me in my gear lol :3

    This place was AMAZING i have had rage for so long and i actually cried during it. It was so great and the staff was really nice and fun to be around!!! cant wait to bring more friends!!!!

    My boyfriend and I came to Vegas for my birthday and wanted to try something different. We got a package which consisted of 30 minutes of as throwing and 15 minutes of the smash room. The 15 minutes was the longest 15 minutes of my life I was so exhausted but it was so much fun haha. This was the most fun we've had in a while!! We definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're looking for some fun off the strip. It was about a 15 minute drive from the main strip. There is shopping in the same plaza and plenty of parking available. The staff is so welcoming and friendly here as well!

    A last min anniversary gift my wife and I chose to spend some time letting off some steam! 15 mins doesn't seem like a long time until,your swinging Negans bat for 10 mins! We destroyed some old printers monitors and some glass things and felt relieved after I'd definitely do it again. Axe throwing was fun they had games like tic tac toe, duck hunt, and a few others. The staff was hella cool they played our selection of music while we were destroying stuff and taught us some trick shots with the axes. All in all a great date night activity.

    Amazing customer service. Helped us out. Gave us a walk-through the whole place and broke everything down to us. We had a great time.

    This place was pretty small, I thought it would be bigger. It was a cool place, the worker told me people come here for divorces, bachelor parties, breakups, it's pretty interesting! 10 minutes would've been more than enough time, but I got the signature package. Anyways, most comments don't go into details on the process, here's how it goes: You buy your tickets online, sign your waivers and your sizes (for your suits, gloves, etc) via email, then go into the location and check in at the front. After you check in, the front desk will get your items ready in a separate space, almost like a little back room area. No curtain, just in an open space. You might need to wait on the couches for a few minutes. After the front desk calls you over, you'll get into your suits, helmets, gloves, etc. Might take 5-10 minutes. If you booked your appointment for 5:45, you probably won't start wrecking until 6 and that's okay, you need time to gear up. After you're all ready, the worker/front desk guy lets you choose your music on his iPad. Then you walk into a small, unventilated room. It gets hot, make sure to drink enough water before you get in, don't wear long sleeve. Then you get started on wrecking, take your pictures, then take off your gear 10,15,25 min later- that's basically it! One thing I disliked about this is that you can't take anything off the table? If the plates on the table, you have to break it on the table. Of course, I understand you can't hit the walls, but I can't take it off the table? We were told that we did make a pretty big mess (see picture), but we didnt break anything OFF the table, it just flew off. I don't see how it's our fault that those items literally flew off the table. ANYWAYS, I had a fun time! I think everyone should do this once. It's pricey though! 10 minutes should be more than enough time to break everything.

    Before. Doesn't look like much to smash, but it was!

    I booked a smash room for one because I just found out my husband has been unfaithful during the majority of our relationship (goodbye, 20+ years). It has completely destroyed me, and I needed to find an outlet to get out the anger, hurt, and devastation I was feeling, because expensive talking-heads therapy just wasn't cutting it. I researched Yelp and found Sin City Smash, and let me tell you: this was the best therapy in the world! It doesn't come cheap, but my experience was worth every penny. I opted for the Signature Smash for One ($59) that gave me a too-short 15 minutes in the room. My table had a lot of beer bottles, a few liquor bottles, a VHS tape, a computer printer, a flat screen computer monitor, keyboard, a few skeet pucks, and a couple of DVDs. At first it didn't look like much to smash, but there was plenty of stuff! I wish there had been more glass bottles, as those were super fun. For the price, I think there should've been a few more items on my table. I checked in early for my reservation time, and the friendly employees got everything in order and they were able to take me right on back. Pro tip: fill out the waiver online BEFORE you arrive, it saves time and is so easy. I was encouraged to stretch, directed towards a free locker to stash my bag in, and was given a safety briefing and a pair of coveralls, shoe covers, goggles, a hard hat with visor and earmuffs, and gloves to put on. (I wore a pair of bulky Doc Martens boots to protect my feet, but it was difficult to get them through the small pants legs, and the shoe covers were hard to put on and take off as well -- you may want to wear non-bulky footwear if you can). Once I was dressed, I was shown to my room. I was able to pick a soundtrack to smash to, and they had everything from rap to classical and beyond. I wanted something super angry, so I went with "rage rock." It was perfect. The timer was set, and off I went to smashin'! I started with the liquor and beer bottles, which were oh-so-fun. I hit them like a professional MLB baseball player and watched them fly! There were some dvds (yawn) and a VHS tape (which was really fun to smash), but the stars of the show were the computer printer, computer monitor, and keyboard! The room had soft baseball bats that were easy to swing and not too heavy. I also had a sledgehammer that was perfect for extra heavy duty smashing. I got the hang of it very quickly, and I would whack the items so hard that they'd end up across the room. You can pick up larger pieces and put them back on the table and smash them again. One good swing of the hefty sledgehammer and all those keyboard keys went flying! It. Was. AWESOME! I would probably upgrade to the better weapons package (called the Ultimate Weapons Upgrade, $20 more) because you get a variety of fun things to choose from (check out their website) to wield. I never got tired of the bat and the sledgehammer however, and I would frequently swap one out for the other. You can really get a feel for which weapon does the most damage to which items. I used both the bat and the sledgehammer on the printer, and it was phenomenal. One cool thing is that before I went in the room, the guy working the desk gave me a skeet puck and a sharpie, and said that usually when there's a woman there alone, she has a name she may want to write on the puck and then smash it all to heck. Yep, he was right! I scribbled He Who Shall Not Be Named on that puck and smashed the ever living heck out of it. THAT was the best of all. The room is soundproof and private, so you can smash in peace. There's a small window, but nobody was looking in it. I added in some primal screams and a few good obscenities as I screamed and cursed my likely soon-to-be ex-husband's name. This is a very female-friendly business, and I highly recommend it for women in similar situations as me. I'm telling you, this helped me in such a different way than traditional coping methods have. I had plenty to smash and not enough time. How I would've loved another 10 minutes (I booked the 15 minute package), but it was quite the workout. Appointments are by reservation only. Afterwards, I took off my gear and was given a bottle of cold water and was encouraged to hang out a bit to let the adrenaline wear off. I felt really strange after this experience, I was so amped up and hyper, and I needed some time to cool down. I was super sweaty, too. You really get worked up, and my emotions were all over the place. When I got in my car, I just sat behind the wheel and screamed as loud as I could. I did it again. I felt good. I felt relieved. Then I just started sobbing uncontrollably. Then I screamed again. Then I felt a lot better. This is serious therapy! If Sin City Smash had a monthly smash program, I'd probably sign up. This was a fun and satisfying experience, and it's a really effective and cool outlet to get out all those feelings that you have bottled up inside.

    This place was a smashing good time. My 13 yo wanted to do a wreck room and was sad that most of them were 18 and older. I searched and found this place was on for 10 and older with adult consent. He had such a blast destroying bottles and his friend we brought with want to come back now. I definitely see return trips for both of them

    Yeah

    Fantastic family fun! We knew with all that has been happening the kids needed a release. A healthy release of pent up frustration. We did the 25 minutes, which was enough time to work up a good sweat. Great friendly staff that was helpful. I would suggest coming here if you had an office event where you wanted to bond or if you wanted just to have a good time with family.

    A smashing good time! My bae and I came to smash some $h*t up for date night and were not disappointed. The location is super close to area 15 and they also have axe throwing and spatter painting available. We did the signature smash which included a ton of items like CDs, VHS tapes, glasses bottles, a printer, and some monitors. They provided all the safety gear for us - coveralls, shoe covers, helmet, safety glasses and headphones. We had no issues at all with feeling unsafe. We opted to stick with the traditional weapons, a bat and sledgehammer. Honestly the sledgehammer was a bit too heavy for me so I stuck mainly to the bat which did plenty of damage. The 15 minutes sounds like it would go by fast, but boy does smashing tired you out. It was the perfect way to let out some rage and frustration on the dumpster fire of a year!

While we've always thought the prices were high for what it is, this year, the prices for the experience was truly not worth it. They offer various packages, 1 hour, 3 hour, or unlimited. We've done all the options in the past, but this time we opted for the hour wristband as we arrived later in the evening ~ 7pm on a Friday night. We wanted her to have time inside too to play in the arcades. Time doesn't start until your first scan for a race or ride. They conveniently scanned us in for our first race and we were seated, in our car, for a solid 10 mins while they sorted out other drivers and go-karts. We got sick from exhaust blowing in our face as we sat there with all the cars running yet not moving. When we finally started the race, it was less than 5 minutes! Half of the cars were either dysfunctional or set to a slow setting with no rhyme or reason. Our next race, our daughter was so excited she is tall enough to try the sprinter car on her own (58in) so we went to check that out. We waited 10 mins for a race to finish then the worker told us she could only fit 8 racers despite there being 15+ cars. So we had to wait another round. Another 20+ mins gone. Half an hour in, we only had 2 races in. In total, we were able to get 5 races in the hour time frame (one of which was past our time limit, but the worker let us go anyway). We have been going to Mini Grand Prix for years and this was the worst experience by far. The races are shorter, the lines are longer, the wrist bands are more expensive and the facilities have not been updated. Our daughter, on her own told us, it's not the same anymore : (

    Inside Town Square…read more Being a dinosaur nerd, I find I have to subject myself to any and all dinosaur attractions. Some attractions out there are really, really bad. As for Dinosaur Outpost, since they're tailored to kids, your little ones will love this place. Make sure they bring socks because the play area at the end requires them. You can also buy socks at the gift shop for $3. Though it's not always enforced because I've seen kids running through with their shoes. Also, make sure to sign the waivers ahead of time online so you're not stuck doing it in person. You can either pay ahead for your tickets or buy it there. But upon entering, your kids will have a little fun interactive entrance where they're going back in time to the dinosaur era. Then you enter the first of 3 rooms, but this being the largest. There's a lot for them to do and once in awhile, a Ranger (staff) will bring out a new born dinosaur in their arms for your kids to interact and play/pet with. They also have a small bike course, with bikes on training wheels, a photo-op where they can also sit and ride on a dinosaur. And then the jungle gym-like area where the socks is required. There's a lot for them to do, and a few benches for parents to sit on while they play. Definitely a fun place to go to for the kids while at Town Square.

It's located just outside the Strip at an outdoor mall, super easy to get to and not far at all. At first, I honestly thought it might be a temporary pop-up, but it actually seems like a permanent setup, and it's huge. The highlight is definitely the animatronic dinosaurs. T la hey're seriously impressive and kept our kids completely engaged. The space is divided into different themed play areas, which makes it feel like there's always something new to explore. There's a bike track, a paleontology dig area, a sand zone, puzzles, a tug-of-war game with a triceratops, and even a section where kids can "feed" dinosaurs with balls. At the end, there's also a small jungle gym to climb around on. There are endless things for kids to do here. We easily spent a solid two hours and could've stayed longer. It's the kind of place that keeps them moving, playing, and using their imagination the whole time. I also noticed they host parties, which would be such a fun idea for a birthday. Overall, the price felt very reasonable for how much time we spent there and how much the kids enjoyed it. Honestly, I just wish we had something like this closer to home!

I also like doing new and different things. I've gone go-cart riding, I took a shooting lesson once, and I have gone sky diving. One thing I've always wanted to do was learn to drive a forklift so this sounded like my thing. I heard about this place while researching unique things to do in Vegas that didn't included gambling or the Casinos. Once I found there website I was excited to give them a try, but was undecided on which option to book. There were so many good ones. The idea of driving a bulldozer and another option to use an excavator and crush a car sounded exhilarating. I was a little nervous about finding a way to get there as they are so far out of the strip. I was worried that the LYFT driver wouldn't want to drive that far out of town to take us there or pick us up. They are located 20 minutes south of the Strip, which is a quick LYFT ride that costs under $40. And to be houses it can be the same amount of time to get around the strip and back to our hotel, the Rio which is off the strip at night when it's the busiest time and traffic is so heavy. The trip there is almost all freeway. I was a bit nervous when I found out you have to sign a waver not holding them liable if you get injured. The price of the big equipment is between $195- $320 ( Each sessions last between 45 to 90 minutes and range form age 8+ or16+) The most exhilarating one was $799 and you get to use an excavator to crush a car.. Now that sounded like the most fun. That's called the Aggression session and lasts 45 minutes. The age for this is 14+. Driving a bulldozer sounded fun too. Being so nervous I ended up booking the kid's dig. There you get to operate a 1.5 ton excavator. That seemed safer if they offered options for little kids and I mean little. Age 2+ can operate the excavator. Depending on their size they may have to sit on someone's lap. The kids dig is $29.50 for 15 minute increments. You can book multiple sessions. And for each session another person can be the operator. You can't split sessions between multiple people. Prior to booking I did call them and talked to Taylor I believe and she assured me as an adult without a child could partake in the Kids Dig. She assured me that other adults have done it and it's still a lot of fun. We went the last Sunday in May 2026. Our appointment was at Noon. I wanted to make sure I had enough time so I booked two 15 minute sessions. Having two sessions allowed us to each try it. My husband said he'd just watch and be my photographer, but I waned to give him the options too to try it out and he did and enjoyed it. Probably not as much as I did, but he had fun. Alex my instructor was amazing. He continued to yell out directions till I got the hang of it. I was doing it with another kid next to me and I felt Alex was really paying attention to me even though he was direction both of us. I was in heaven as I dug dirt out of the ground and created a giant hole. 15 minutes was plenty for time and I relinquished my second session to my husband. I had so much fun that I wanted to share the fun. I had trouble on my own remembering what to do so he continued to give me directions till I got the handle of it. I wonder how little kids so it as I was having difficulty remembering what to do. On the other hand kids play so many video games these days so they may be more used to this rhythm of movement. I highly reccomend this activity to everyone that is looking for something unique to do in Vegas. This was the highlight of my trip to Vegas. I'm so glad I overcame my fear of getting to and from Dig This. I felt very safe using the excavator. It's a little nerve wracking at first as you lean back a bit when you are digging. You really don't need the photo package as your companion can walk all around you and take pictures and videos. This only works if you are confident in their photography and videography skills. I had my doubts so I bought the photo package and I'm glad i did as Alex go a really good action shoot of me. And I'm a total photography lover. I like to capture the moment and I feel like the money is worth it not to miss the moment. When I went Sky diving I hired a photographer and videographer too and it was so worth it. The digital photo package with plaque is $67.93. If you just want the plaque it's $37.93. It's so much of a better deal to get the digital photo package as you get a minimum of 5 shots. We got 17 for the 2 sessions and that was of both my husband and myself. I was thrilled with Alex's photography skills and his ability to catch those action shots. If you have reservations do the Kid's dig. It's only $29.50 and have your companion take your picture and it's a total steal for all the fun you'll have.

    It's Soarin'! in Las Vegas. Same ride system and manufacturer. They have 4 different movies that…read morethey cycle through throughout the day. There is a "history of the west" preshow video which is ok. But the actual ride really shines. Overall experience is about 25 minutes from pre-show to exit. We did the West video which went through the deserts in the west, up the coast, and also the pacific northwest. Of course there was a flyover of Vegas. The video was very crisp. The ride system was very smooth. My daughter complained it didn't have the neat transitions between scenes like Disney does. This just jumps from clip to clip although they try to keep the perspective the same. Overall I really liked this. A definite must do in my mind!

It was only a twenty minute or so walk from our hotel. Check in was easy. One of the employees was helpful in clearing up some confusions we had about how it all worked. We purchased the two-ride ticket, so we were unsure of how it worked. We opted for the American West and the Chicago ride. Both were amazing, but we liked Chicago the best. They were both about nine minutes or so, not including the pre shows. If you've ever been on the Soarin' attraction at Disney California Adventure, it's basically that, just without Disney's level of production. It was still great quality, though.

They won't allow you to bring your phone or anything else in your pockets onto the ride. Staff actually check before you board, and if you have anything on you, they'll send you back to put it away. Luckily, there are lockers nearby for around $1, so storing your belongings is quick, easy, and inexpensive. We visited on a Friday night and purposely waited until it was dark so we could enjoy the views of the Las Vegas Strip while riding. We had purchased our tickets online ahead of time, which I highly recommend because it allowed us to skip the ticket line. Once inside New York-New York, the coaster was easy to find, and we only waited about 30 minutes to ride. As a plus-size woman, I was happy to find that I fit comfortably on the ride, which is always something I appreciate knowing before visiting an amusement attraction. It was over 100°F outside the night we rode, so flying through the loops, twists, and huge drops while getting blasted with warm desert air made for a pretty wild experience! I'll admit, I was a little terrified--the drops are much bigger than I expected, and I rode a good portion of it with my eyes closed. The ride itself is fairly short, but it's packed with excitement from start to finish. My teenager absolutely loved it, and even though it scared me a bit, I'm really glad we did it. If you're visiting Las Vegas with kids or teens, I'd definitely recommend adding the Big Apple Coaster to your itinerary.

Next thing you know, you're hurled left, then right - or maybe right then left - and up a little hill then into a CYCLONIC FUNNEL in a downward decent where you think you're done but then you hit a couple of parking lot speed bumps at maximum speed (more ass-banging) before you enter a dark tunnel where you think, "Oh God, what's next," but you get a quick glimpse into the casino right before the ride ends. Definitely a value (albeit it a different one) to the $25 cheeseburger, and more memorable than a t-shirt, just don't eat the burger before you board.

This was…read moreright up our alley because it fell on a Saturday this year (lucky for us, because my LTP is currently busy with school and work during the week). The last time our anniversary fell on a Saturday, it was in 2020 and we literally couldn't do anything due to COVID restrictions, so this one was extra special for us. We marked seven years of dating on 7/18/26! I had a pretty good childhood, back when there was no such thing as smartphones, VR, and AI, and Play Playground allowed us to play like a kid again. This is a family friendly place during the day, but they implement it to 21+ only after 7:00pm and 13+ only after 6:00pm when accompanied by an adult. Make sure to sign the waiver online and forward it to everyone in your party before arriving here to save time. You'll get plenty of playtime here; the entire thing lasts about 90 minutes, which includes Duck Duck Boom across from the main entrance. Once you enter, you check in and they will give you a lanyard that you can hook your play card on, which is extremely convenient. You will also be assigned a random name (I was "Neutral Guava and my LTP was "Pleased Hare") so that they appear on the scoreboard for each game. All games are worth 15 credits and many of them mirrored games we played when we were kids, such as Frolic (Simon Says), Perfect Popper (Perfection), and Rolla Derby (Skee Ball). Tic-tac-toe, Connect Four, and Jenga can be found at numerous tables as well. The Bullseye Bounce was one of my favorite games to play here, where I got to jump on a trampoline in a Velcroed suit and throw myself as high as possible onto a Velcroed target in three tries. There's also a bounce house maze in the very back, which was also fun to experience since I've been inside several bounce houses at birthday parties and other events when I was younger. Their cocktails are absolutely amazing, too. I got myself a Pop Rock Punch cocktail and my LTP got himself a Duck Duck Boom cocktail. The Pop Rock Punch came with a pack of Blue Raspberry pop rocks that I could add in myself (I did not choose this flavor specifically; it was selected at random). We got both of these in a 12oz cup. Being a Las Vegas resident of 25 years, I think this was the most fun I've ever had on The Strip thus far. Play Playground is a great place for any occasion.

I mean that some of these require you to think and be fast. Some are games like operation and match the shapes till the board pops. Others require that you and your team mate have to get a red ball through the maze and score points. They have different passes one basic and one VIP, family pass and also group packages. I got the vip this comes with unlimited game play as the games require you to swipe your pass and before you know it your credits run out. Trust me the games are super fun and most of them you will try to beat your score playing multiple times. The vip also comes with one cocktail and swag bag. We had lots of fun and we be back to try and get higher scores. The staff here are super helpful and offer up lots of help with games some are challenging. So head on over to the Luxor hotel and give this place a try....

Beautiful, quaint grounds. There is amazing Las Vegas history there - you get the charm of a Vegas wedding, without the feeling of a quintessential "Vegas wedding." Shannon and Cheryl met with us 6 months, 3 months, and 1 month prior to our wedding for planning and prep, and answered any and all questions via email and text in between. As someone who works in the entertainment/events industry, and is extremely picky and particular about every detail, I felt so happy and impressed with the outcome. They allowed me to direct my own vision and their team made it all come to life. Having them there to help coordinate allowed me to relax and enjoy my night, without a worry of having to handle things on my own. Trust me, do the Twilight Reception.. it's so worth it.. the garden comes alive at night - the chandeliers and lights in the trees were a dream for me - and to dance the night away under the stars... ugh.... Amazing! You get the best photos on the grounds. I didn't feel like I needed to add an abundance of décor, flowers, etc. because the grounds were so beautiful on their own.. especially in the spring. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I will be dreaming about our wedding night and this little special pocket of a gem forever... Take a tour, it's so charming.

We were very disappointed.
