Circus Circus Las Vegas
Circus Circus Las Vegas is a circus-themed 3,774 room hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip. It is owned and operated by MGM Mirage. Circus Circus features free circus acts on a regular basis throughout the day and the only RV park on the Strip.
The upper storey of the casino hosts the circus acts and a collection of carnival games. A full blown theme park, the Adventure Dome, is attached at the back of the hotel.
The Adventuredome Theme Park, formerly known as Grand Slam Canyon, is a 5 acre indoor amusement park that offers 16 rides and is connected to the hotel. The theme park includes a variety of rides, a rock climbing wall, 18-hole miniature golf course, an arcade, and carnival type games. The dome of the park is made up of over 350,000 sq ft. of insulated glass.
Circus Circus was opened October 18, 1968 by Jay Sarno. It became the flagship casino for Circus Circus Enterprises (later Mandalay Resort Group) and is now part of MGM Mirage Group.
Circus Circus underwent major renovations in 1997, changing the hotel's theme from the standard American Circus to a French Cirque du Soleil style Circus.
