Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas

What are the highlights of the Stratosphere Tower?

With its status as the USA's highest observation tower in the USA, the Stratosphere Tower is an attraction fit for families and thrill-seekers. The 108th floor has an indoor lookout point, while the 109^th level hosts an open-air deck providing undisturbed views of Las Vegas and the arid landscapes of Nevada in the distance.

If taking in the incredible vistas is not enough, the Stratosphere Tower has some hair-raising amusement rides. The X-Scream is a rollercoaster ride that simulates a drop-down from the building, as it makes sudden moves backwards and forwards. You can enjoy an acceleration ascend at the Big Shot, swing around at the Insanity high-speed carousel, or get ready for a controlled bungy-jump at the SkyJump Las Vegas.

What to do and what to shop in Stratosphere Tower?

After conquering your fears in one of the gravity-defying rides or overlooking the city at the overwhelming viewing deck, you can stroll around a shopping mall that's located within the same tower.

The Stratosphere Tower Shops consist of specialty shops, arcade halls, eateries, and a gift shop. Wander around the retail level to find clothes at Paradise Island Wear or ASHBA Clothing, enjoy 80 breathtaking rides at the X World 360 VR, or look for precious ornaments at one of the jewelry showrooms.

The Strat complex has a theater and the LA Comedy Club, both offering quality shows throughout the year. Alternately, visit the Las Vegas Magic Shop for a free magic demonstration or to buy your own tricks.
