Las Vegas Strip
MGM Grand, NV

The MGM Grand Hotel and Casino remains the largest hotel within Nevada and the United States with over 5,000 rooms. The MGM Grand lives up to its reputation: it offers a theme park, showrooms, an arena, and a shopping area. The hotel is adorned with golden figures of lions and gods to welcome guest to the City of Entertainment. MGM Grand utilizes a lion habitat in a showcase that began with the legendary lion Leo from the silver screen. Make it a point to visit The Lion Habitat and enjoy seeing such magnificent animals within the confines of the big city. Just across the street from New York-New York, the MGM Grand Adventures Theme Park features "The Lightning Bolt" and "The Sky Screamer" (definitely not for the faint-hearted!).

For more entertainment at the MGM Grand consider the Hollywood Theatre or a special event held in the MGM Grand Garden Arena such as world championship fights in boxing and other sporting events. The arena also provides popular entertainment from musical artists such as Madonna, Barbara Streisand, Phil Collins, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, the Rolling Stones, and many more performers. The annual FOX Billboard Music Awards are held here every year and occasionally the Country Music Awards are held in this massive arena that seats up to 16,800 people. Plenty of entertainment spots within the MGM Grand include; the casino, nightclubs, or the bars, or Wheel of Fortune. Several restaurants are available to choose from depending on the occasion. No matter what style of entertainment, MGM Grand does everything on a grand scale.
