1968Opened

Circus Circus opened in 1968 and was the first Las Vegas casino built to admit children to part of the property, with a circus ring and midway above the gaming floor. It remains the clearest surviving example of the family-oriented experiment that the Strip later abandoned.

The resort includes an indoor amusement park under a glass dome, an RV park and three low-rise room blocks. It was sold away from its long-time corporate owner in 2019 and sits at the quieter north end of the Strip, trading on low room rates.

Highlights

  • Circus acts performed above the casino floor
  • Indoor amusement park under a glass dome
  • On-site RV park
  • Among the lowest Strip room rates
