    I've gone to over a dozen UNLV men's and women's games here and the staff is awesome. They are helpful and polite. The concessions have variety of food and drinks. I personally like the nachos which are a great value. The events are well organized no matter who is in town or what event is performing. The events often have fun games for kids to win prizes. Most of all this place has one of the best views of Strip.

    Great day to watch Nevada beat GCU at the Mountain View Tournament! Parking is $30 food prices are expensive but the staff here is always so nice and game day ready!

    We were directed to the one elevator used earlier.

    I came here for the first time to attend my niece's high school graduation. I believe there were multiple graduations and we were the last event of the day. When we arrived at the parking lot there were lines of cars leaving and entering. The lines seemed long but their traffic control team was moving the traffic really well. We had a map for the event, but signage for the event scattered through the roads would be better. We had a handicap placard and the team handled it with ease (just make sure it's visible). Handicap spots were limited but we were able to snag a parking spot. From there, we were able to locate where wheelchair guest enter, which was between the escalators. Security checks were quick and efficient and we were the. loaded into an elevator. So, from parking to unloading the elevator, it took at least 5 minutes. It was quick. There's not really any designated wheelchair parking for guest so are able to walk but noticed there were areas for guests who wish to stay in their wheelchairs. A friendly usher found a spot for us to leave our wheelchair for the event. I thought it would be a stressful process but it was effortless. Unfortunately trying to leave was a little different, especially for guest with disabilities. We waited in the arena a little longer for the crowds to dissipate. Guest who were unable to use the stairs/escalators were directed to the one elevator used when we arrived. The line was long but we made it in the second or third round. When we got outside there was a mass crowd and no way to get to our car so we just waited between the escalators. There was no crew members out there to direct guest anywhere. We were separated from the rest of our family for a bit. Again the parking team did a great job getting cars out. That same energy needs to be assisting with directing guest from the arena to their cars. I was thinking it was chaotic because we were the last group and they allowed guests to linger to take photos. We still had a great experience at this venue and we'll probably be back in 4-5 years for my niece's college graduation. Hopefully their guest control for exit is improved by then.

    Maddy graduated on Wednesday!!!! Thomas & Mack Center is a great place for graduation. Getting in and out of there is always a nightmare. I wish they would be coordinated when directing traffic. See my pics

    My niece had her graduation at Thomas and Mack. It was surprisingly well organized with different schools coming out as we were going in and the next school coming in Alas we were leaving. Security was quick and easy as long as you followed their clear instructions with bag size and contents. There were tables set up and clearly labeled eith gifts, flower, drinks, that were not allowed in or people who didn't want to give graduates the flowers until they were done walking across the stage and to avoid leaving them in cars.

    The NFR is like a well oiled machine. Runs very smoothly and timely. Entertaining event, with very little down time.

    Front at ride share drop off

    Visited the campus for a campus tour. Relatively quieter on a Friday morning with cooler weather. Huge arena, feeling the aura of the early 90s running rebels. Rideshare drop off and pickup is covertly setup at the front of the stadium at the roundabout.

    Great staff here and a wonderfully laid out arena. Not a bad seat in the house unless you're extremely high up and then you just have to have better vision than me. Parking prices can be a little high but that's the price for doing fun stuff in Vegas. Speaker system seems a little outdated but overall the announcer sounds pretty clean. Can't wait for the next event.

    While decent enough for a Highschool Graduation the Thomas & Mack Center is far from "state-of-the-art" if guests have been around the country to colleges like The Ohio State University, LSU or even North Dakota. Sure the Rebs achieved unprecedented success here, but 42 years since opening everything including "VIP" Suites feels dated while entry and exit is an absolute mess.

    It was my first time getting to come here, let alone for the national final rodeos. I will definitely be back. The venue was great, easy to get to and handicap (ADA) parking was super convenient!!! Definitely recommend this venue!

    Do they charge for parking?

    Suppose it is an event such as a concert or game, yes. Parking is around 20.00 or more. If it's a graduation, parking is free. If the event occurs at night, and you don't mind a decent walk, you can Park on the UNLV campus after hours and walk to…

We were able to reach the entrance all indoors, which was such a relief as I cannot stand the 110 degree Vegas heat right now. Since I am preggie, me and my friends all cut the lines through the vip entrance. The staff didn't say anything about the liter bottle and another smaller bottle of water I brought in, so definitely felt grateful for their understanding for a preggie mom. There are a lot of nice accommodations with preggie women! We took the escalators up to our section, which I really want to experience how grand this venue is. There are also tons of shops and drinks stands all around. The bathroom line was so fast, so many stalls. And of course the Backstreet Boys. My love. My childhood band. The best show ever. I would go back in a heart beat and experience this all over again.

    I was in Vegas for a few days and realized the Aces' home opener lined up perfectly with my trip…read moresuch an easy decision to grab a ticket! I stayed at Park MGM and was pleasantly surprised that T-Mobile Arena is literally right across the street. No dealing with crazy Uber/Lyft prices, which was a huge win. The timing couldn't have been better it was opening night and their championship ring ceremony. Watching the team receive their 2025 championship rings in person was an incredible experience. The energy in the arena was unmatched! Seeing A'ja Wilson, Jackie Young, and Chelsea Gray play at home was absolutely electric. The arena itself is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. Staff were super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. If you're in Vegas during the WNBA season, I highly recommend catching an Aces game. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

    Ok so my nephews favorite fighter in the UFC is Charles Oliveira and he was making his comeback…read morefight after a stunning loss in his last fight vs Ilia Topuria to fight Max Holloway in Las Vegas at T-Mobile Arena at UFC 326. So he is a good kid-does well in school,about to graduate high school,so he asked his dad if he could take him to watch the fight live as a graduation gift. Well once they decided to go,they extended the invite to myself & his grandmother,who is my 73 year old mother. Well this was going to be my mother's 1st UFC event,so to say she was beyond excited is a massive understatement. We secured tickets thru our membership to UFC Fight Club-which gives members presale access to all live UFC events. We arrived in Vegas on Saturday morning and after dropping off the bags and grabbing a quick bite we headed off to T-Mobile for UFC 326. I love how T-Mobile handles security for these events as you don't have to empty your pockets,you just walk thru and it scans you and if they see something they stop you,otherwise you just walk right in the stadium. T-Mobile Arena is located on Las Vegas Blvd,tucked off the street between the New York-New York Casino and the Park MGM Casino.Very easy access for walk ups or drops offs if you are coming from far away. It's a pretty modern stadium-Home of both the WNBA Champion Las Vegas Aces and former NHL Champs Vegas Golden Knights. This stadium is for sure built to put on larger than life events,so I had zero doubt UFC 326 would go off without a hitch. My seats for this event were the last row at the very top of the stadium,so I can now truly say,there is not a bad seat in the house and the views are amazing from every seat. I'm not a small guy,so arena seating can get tight at times,but I had zero issues with the seats being too crunched together at T-Mobile. I did see two fights break out between fans in the hallways while the event was going on,but both times security swarmed quickly and dissolved the situation before it got out of hand-I don't think my mother even noticed the fights. Drinks and food are typical arena big event Vegas prices,but at least this arena does have every option available but honestly I don't eat or drink too much at sporting events,I think I had a tall can for like $18 or something pretty close to that. Getting out of the stadium was chaotic,at least where we sat due to everyone being funneled to one escalator to service many sections of the stadium-which may have led a bit to the unrest from a few of the overly emotional fans who may have been a bit overly excited about the last fight results-but it's UFC-it's kind of expected to have a rowdy fanbase. Once out of the arena-we made our way to many of the neighboring bars and restaurants in the area for a lively Saturday night in Las Vegas. In closing-If you find yourself with an upcoming event,be it a concert,a hockey game,a basketball game or a UFC event,I guarantee this arena will provide you everything needed to have a great time-like my mother who had the time of her life at her 1st UFC event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

    I came here for my first time, not to watch one specific artist, group, or cirque de ole show…read more Instead me and 5 others came to watch the American Music Awards! Extremely tight security provided by MGM Grand Hotel, super friendly crowd filled with not only American's, but all sorts of international countries from around the world, there were a lot of Japanese and Korean speaking people in and around my seat section. The facility is quite big, lots more security with large metal detectors you need to walk through as you make your way inside the arena, food and beverage concession stands located once you arrive in the lobby, large and extra clean restroom facilities, this stadium can hold about 16,000 people! The seats that me and my party were sitting in were on the balcony riser's to side of stage left. The tunnel where all of the celebrities walked in and out from the stage into their seats on the floor were just beneath our balcony! Such close up views of who were there nominated for an AMA and receiving an award.

    TOP NOTCH!! 100 PERCENT ENTERTAINMENT! MGM GRAND GARDEN ARENA DOES IT AGAIN FOR AN ANNUAL AWARD…read moreSHOW!! This arena has been around for decades and is a staple here in Vegas for seeing so many amazing live shows! In my opinion the best place to catch an award show or concert, too. You can see everything just about from any seat in the house. Pure enjoyment! Had the amazing opportunity to go to the Annual Academy of Country Music Awards and it did not disappoint! Very organized on behalf of MGM Grand Garden Arena, staff, and team! However, when it came to trying to find a simple bottle of purified water to drink, you will not find one here. All beverages are Dasani and Coke products. Dasani water is full of chemicals. So for anyone with allergies, probably not the best. Because of that the concession Management was able to accommodate a couple of their behind-the-scenes water complimentary. A huge thank you to their team for getting that for me. Really made a difference in my experience, quenched my thirst, too. Merchandise area was very nicely laid out. There was only one area however, perhaps another table would've been helpful for the large crowd as things were selling out and even the merch team directed people to order the souvenirs on the Amazon Prime website. By the way, the ACM's aired on Amazon Prime for the first time in TV history not being on regular prime television. Once the show started, it was absolutely incredible. Really neat to see production go to work. Great job to all of the production teams putting together this amazing show. The show was approximately 2 1/2 hours long. The sound and lighting was outstanding and the set designs were fantastic and so creative! Since I arrived there extra early to avoid the traffic and ensure a parking spot, there was plenty of time to walk around the concourse. Restrooms and seating were amazingly clean. Getting out of the arena was kind of crazy there was only one exit everyone trying to get out at once through the lobby was very hectic. Overall, just an incredible night and hands-down best place to see a show in town! :)

The comfortable, smartly constructed theater inside of Park MGM is where Usher performed and boy did Usher perform! For nearly two full hours, the crowd, which reached to the rafters, was treated to hit after hit from every Usher album ever made. We received Usher singing and grooving in all of his 45 year old fineness on four wheel skates, in a silk robe, rocking cool shades, busting out a handstand, in a glittery leather, being a flirt, a playboy, a lover and a cheater. There are so many sides to this legendary singer and we were blessed with them all. At one point during the VERY SEXY show, Usher stepped off of the stage, walked into the middle of the super adoring crowd and stayed there serenading us for a good while. The acoustics were superb as were his XXX dancers and his band. There were giant screens on each side of the stage so that nobody missed one moment of Usher's singing, dancing greatness, no matter how far they were from the stage. The Usher Residency in Las Vegas is the first concert that I say in all seriousness that I would be happy to go to again. I didn't get to grab any of the "Usher Bucks" that were unexpectedly blasted from a confetti machine in the end but still the greatest concert ever!
