Under the blinding lights of the Las Vegas Strip, you can risk it all in the gambling capital of the world!

About

Las Vegas, often called “Sin City,” started in 1905 as a small railroad town. The transformation of Las Vegas as we know it today began in 1931, when the state of Nevada legalized gambling, created loose divorce laws relative to the rest of the US, and construction on the Hoover Dam commenced. These activities brought an influx of workers and tourists looking to have fun and commit a little sin. The 1940s saw the rise of iconic casinos and entertainment venues funded partly by organized crime. The 1950s and 60s ushered in a golden era, with lavish resorts and performances by legends like Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra. Over the decades, corporate investment replaced mob influence, leading to the development of mega-resorts like The Mirage and Bellagio in the 1990s. Today, the dazzling lights of Las Vegas attract hopeful gamblers from all over the world.
