VEGAS MEANS
BUSINESS & PLEASURE
https://www.vegasmeansbusiness.com/
The moment when you discover you’re going to Las Vegas on
business, it’s likely that two thoughts may run through your head.
First, you’ll probably be excited about the opportunities not only
to attend or hold a meeting or convention in Las Vegas, where
business deals get done every day, but to perhaps find a little
free time to enjoy extracurricular activities in the Entertainment
Capital of the World.
Tour the Hoover Dam
Approximately 30 miles outside of Vegas is one of the greatest
manmade structures in the world. The Hoover Dam was built
during the middle of the Great Depression and harnesses its
power from the Colorado River. Tours happen every day and
allow you to observe the inner workings of the power plant.
Walk up to the top of the dam for amazing views of the
surrounding area.
Adventure and Las Vegas go hand in hand. “No matter what you
are looking for, there’s something here for everyone.” Las Vegas
is filled with thrills, from swimming with the sharks in the Shark
Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay, to zip lining on Slotzilla in the
Fremont Street Experience or the VooDoo Zipline across towers
at the Rio, to the SkyJump at the Stratosphere. And that’s just the
beginning. Get your adrenaline pumping and experience thrills
like you never have before, Las Vegas style.
The Palms Casino Hotel
Host hotel for the 93rd WAD Annual Conference, all the new
Palms Casino Hotel
“Destroy the old. Create the new. A timeless clash in which progress seeks
new form. The old resists the new. The new replaces the old. The process is
art itself. The outcome: beautiful evolution. It’s not just time to forget the
past—it’s time to obliterate it. From these ashes, a new legend is born.”
Palms. From Dust to Gold.
Get an amazing view of Vegas
The High Roller. It’s the World’s Tallest Observation Wheel,
reaching 550 feet into the sky, and it will give you an incredible
view of the strip. Another way to answer it is by finding yourself
flinging 160 feet in the air at 45 miles per hour when you’re
already 921 feet above the ground on the Stratosphere’s Big Shot.
You’ll also find incredible views at The Eiffel Tower Experience at
Paris Las Vegas, the Skybar at Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas and The
Boulevard Pool at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.
