Some rides are only available to those over 48" tall so it your child is slightly over the height requirement do not try to cheat the system and end up cheating your child out of a fun experience.

Built in 1993, AdventureDome has grown from a small 4 ride park at Circus Circus into the all-day adventure it is today. Tickets are bought only at Circus Circus. Discount Tickets are available all over town (including the Circus Circus funbook available at the Conceierge) Discounts for weekend attendance are also available to Nevada residents.
