Tournament of Kings at Excalibur

This Las Vegas show gives you the opportunity to witness some spectacular action while also enjoying a fabulous meal. Costing $59 per person, with children aged three or below admitted free of charge, it sees medieval knights on horses jousting with each other, ensuring an action-packed event. Once you get inside you will be assigned a seating area and asked to select one of the knights to support as he engages in sword battles against his opponents. Food consists of a three-course meal that you eat with fingers and soft drinks are served in flagons, making this an ideal day out for the whole family.

The Aquarium at the Mirage Hotel and Casino

The numerous luxury hotel/casino complexes in Vegas all offer entertainment that is family-friendly as well, with the Aquarium at the Mirage being a fine example. You will find it in the hotel lobby and children will relish seeing more than 100 sea and coral reef creatures – including a shark. The aquarium is 8 ft tall and 53 ft long and is filled with artificial corals that are precise recreations of those that you would find in places like the Great Barrier Reef. Open all day, every day, this is a fun family respite from the hustle and bustle of Vegas, allowing you to relax and learn a little at the same time.

Adventuredome Theme Park

Undoubtedly one of Vegas’s most popular family attractions, this theme park covers five acres and is open all year round, seven days a week. It has rides to suit children of all ages, ranging from roller coasters and thrill rides for older ones to kiddie rides for small children. But the Adventuredome isn’t just filled with rides! There is also a miniature golf course, video game arcades and a movie adventure in 4D. This attraction also boasts free entry, with only the actual rides and attractions costing.
