Madame Tussauds Interactive Wax Attraction

Madame Tussauds Wax Museum

Located outside of the Venetian Hotel and Casino, this is a great attraction. With an adult ticket price of $25 ($18 for Seniors and $15 for children 7-12) it's a little pricey. There are places that you can get discount and 2 for 1 coupons (the Great American Casino Guide is where I got my 2 for 1 coupon). But it is well worth the money.

They tend to exchange figures with their other locations, so if there is a specific figure you want to see on your trip, it is best to call or email them to make sure it will be there when you visit. You can get married to George Clooney, judge American Idol with Simon Cowell, sing with Mic Jagger, or dance with Beyonce. The gift shop was pricey and not that impressive though. [Dana, 09/22/2010]

Madame Tussauds Wax Museum

Madame Tussauds knows how to arrange a photo opportunity. At their Las Vegas wax museum, the whole idea is to pose with your favorite celebrities. Snapshots are encouraged, and the wax figures are high quality facsimiles of Hollywood and Vegas famous. It's always surprises us, especially after a summer examining the corpse-like, near unrecognizable sculptures at the nation's low grade wax museums.

At Tussauds, if a visitor holds still for just a few seconds, a crowd starts to gather trying to guess which famous person it might be.

While we shot plenty of photos ourselves, this snapshot seemed important to publish ASAP -- as a caution. The idea of the Hugh Hefner figure, in his PJs on a circular bed, is that people who DO NOT look like Playboy playmates can pose with him. That's what makes it funny. Our momentary models, April and Tara, simply look too comfortable and natural hanging with the Man.

So take our advice -- hold Grandma Flo's walker while she puts on the bunny ears and climbs on Hef's lap. Your family will appreciate it. [Roadsideamerica.com Team, 09/06/2006]
