Circus Circus was traditionally the main family destination in Las Vegas – long before everyone else started catering to families with children.
The casino had one of the biggest arcades in town, a free continuously running circus act, and a very popular buffet restaurant.
In 1993 the new indoor amusement park opened its doors as "Grand Slam Canyon" under the distinctive dome all pink glass walls. It only had 4 rides and a few dinosaur-themed animatronics that interacted with riders.
Many more rides were added since then and the dinosaurs were removed to make room for more attractions. Now the park has two roller-coasters, several thrill rides, simulator rides, a freefall ride and laser tag.
