“Game of Thrones” Attraction Coming To Las Vegas

Grab your sword, Las Vegas. Winter is coming. Someone just announced that a Game of Thrones attraction is on its way to Las Vegas. And the details are something of a mystery.

The Game of Thrones popular show ran nine seasons, so it’s no surprise that someone would try to monetize an attraction based on the same franchise. Why now? Who’s to say? It might be to coincide with the Game of Thrones prequel, House of Dragons, which was released earlier this year.

We are pretty excited about the attraction. Or at least we think we are. We don’t know much about it. What little information we can gather comes from a website with just an enigmatic video.

If you go to the host’s website, gotdragonslv.com, you can watch the video. It opens on a close up shot of the famous “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign. But the sign is on the ground, half burnt, and seemingly the only thing left somewhat standing in what looks like a post-apocalyptic Las Vegas.

But it’s not the apocalypse. It’s dragons. Which the video makes a very clear a few seconds after it begins. One by one you see  dragons flying overhead what's left of Sin City. But that’s it. Except for an expected “winter is coming to Las Vegas“ phrase at the end. Then the website suggests viewers sign up with their email. Perhaps to get updates. We don’t know.

And that’s the maddening thing. We don’t know anything else. But that’s also the exciting part. It could be anything. In the city known for its entertainment, the sky is the limit. Of course, when it comes to the details, we're not going to just sit here and wait for deliverance. We're going to speculate. So here is what we came up with as possible Game of Thrones themed attractions that would befit Las Vegas. –Wendy Rush

The show is pretty much Game of Thrones anyway right? Dragons, swords, kings. Seems like it wouldn’t be too far-fetched to transform Tournament of Kings into an attraction based on the popular show.

The MSG Sphere at The Venetian is a music venue, but also an amazing place to recreate a Hunger Games type of attraction. How much would you pay to don a sword and run around that arena chasing dragons? Actors dressed as White Walkers to make it even more realistic....could be cool.

There is a Game of Thrones studio tour in Banbridge, Northern Ireland. It is an interactive experience created in partnership with Warner Brothers. While the show wasn't filmed in a studio in Las Vegas, it definitely could be recreated here for fans.

Um...yes please. Maybe a GoT training ground is coming to sin city! Visitors can don the costumes and learn archery or sword fighting.

While Slotzilla at Fremont is fun in its own right, how much cooler would it be if you got to zipline with this bad boy on your back? Oooh or have him behind you so it's like you're trying to get away from him?? Okay we need to calm down.

Madame Tussauds Las Vegas has revamped their looked several times over the years. Perhaps they're planning a GoT wing in the near future.

Considering what Cirque du Soleil has done with Ka, Mystere, O and all their other amazing spectacles, it wouldn't be hard for them to put together an amazing GoT-themed show.

Remember in 2019 when the Bellagio did their GoT-themed display? Maybe they're bringing that back in honor of the prequel launch.

There's already one at the Warner Brothers Studio in Burbank, California. Maybe WB is expanding to Vegas. Area 15 would be an awesome venue for this.

The timing of this video release is interesting, considering what else is going on around the Strip. It's recently been announced that the change in ownership for the Mirage also means the end of the famous volcano. And while GoT doesn't exactly go with the Hard Rock international vibe, anything is possible. I mean, they already have the fire. Just add dragons.
