The Evel Knievel Experience In Las Vegas

Take your time lots of cool exhibits and short films to see. The old school memorabilia was super cool.

This Experience took me back to being 5 years old and sitting and watching Evel Knievel do his daredevil bike jumps on Wide World of Sports back in the 70s. Also was always fascinated with his Snake River Canyon jump and all of his jumps (good, bad and ugly) are documented and celebrated. Evel's can-do crazy spirit is evident throughout the entire museum through footage and memorabilia! Only has been open since June so nice a clean and inviting. My wife barely knew about him and she spent almost three hours absorbing his life and enjoyed every minute of it! She was fascinated and became a concerted fan of the man who seemed to be able to to everything dangerous. Bonus was seeing his Big Red semi restored at the tours end, as well as getting to pose with a giant-size Revving Toy Replica! This place was a dream come true for this boy from Chicago with a dream of flying through the air on a bike and a prayer!

So much to learn about Evel Kinevil. Great museum. Definitely need 1-2 hours.

What an amazing experience. Brings back my childhood watching all his famous jumps and his personal life. Well worth the visit. The staff was.amazing. Mark and Steve really took the time to answer questions and explain things. Big Red was awesome to see. The virtual jump at the end was like really being on the bike. Worth the trip.

Excellent experience from all the exhibits to everyone working there. Brought ba k great childhood memories. And my kids enjoyed it as well. Displays and artifacts really are incredible.

My husband and I went to the Evel Knievel Museum Saturday and LOVED IT! 🏍️💥 Evel was such a HUGE part of both of our childhoods! But what really blew us away was seeing the dates and realizing just how quickly Evel was doing those back-to-back jumps. Let’s just say… we were impressed, and also wondering what in the world was he thinking! 😂😳 And the virtual jump?! MUST DO! We BOTH did it and absolutely loved it!😂 The museum is SO well done and brought back so many memories. I honestly loved it just as much as the Princess Diana Experience! Very affordable for the cost! So if you’re in Vegas and looking for something besides gambling, eating and people-watching… GO CHECK IT OUT! 🏍️❤️

Absolutely loved this place! As a kid, I had the legendary Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle and grew up watching Evel’s crazy jumps on TV, so walking into this museum was like being transported straight back to my childhood. Becki knew who Evel was, but wasn’t quite the fanboy I was 😂 — yet somehow we ended up spending hours here! There’s loads to see, with some fantastic memorabilia, bikes and pieces of Evel history. The staff were brilliant too — really friendly, knowledgeable and up for a laugh, which made the whole experience even better. But the absolute highlight for me was meeting Evel Knievel’s granddaughter. As someone who grew up watching her grandfather launching himself over pretty much anything people put in front of him, that was a very cool moment! We went in expecting a museum visit and came out having had one of the most enjoyable experiences of our Vegas trip. If Evel Knievel was part of your childhood, you NEED to visit this place. And yes… they actually sell the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle in the gift shop! Believe me, if I’d had enough room in the suitcase, one would definitely have been coming back to Yorkshire with me! 🏍️😂 Five stars — highly recommended! We will 100% visit again when we come back to Vegas!

A great 90 min to get out of the LasVegas heat. Very informative and eye opening. At 68 it brought back many memories

Great day, last minute find, worth going. Staff very friendly and very knowledgeable. Especially good day for anyone who grow up in the 70’s! Only 5 mins from the strip in a taxi, well worth the trip. Area with exhibitions immaculate . Definitely recommended it.

This was a random find on the internet when looking for an afternoon activity that is quintessential Vegas, for a friend, wife and myself. It was not yet open back in the Spring, so finally came around to go this month. The Good: An unexpected delightful experience. The welcome video & early rooms talking about the genesis of the legend is the most interesting. Part 1 does a chronology of his career year by year, jump by jump. As you move through these rooms, you may wish to drop the read of each plaque and just watch the jump videos. If you are a purist, the estimate of 1.5 hours is not enough if you want to read all of the information about the jumps. Slow down at the 1974 room for the canyon jump, that's cool. If you're doing a speed run, blow past everything from 1975 on, and move through to the costume and merch room. Very fun to hang out there for a few minutes. Part 2 is the unexpected surprise of this attraction. Plan to spend time here. Watch the 15 minute video on the restoration of the Evel semi-truck on display there. This is also where you'll do the VR jump if you added that on. Pro tip: If you're mobility challenged, or just old and stiff like me, you may wish to opt for the chair, as straddling the motorcycle can be a recipe for a charlie horse. Take time to talk to the staff at the counter on your way out, and you'll get some interesting insights as to the genesis of the move of the museum from the Midwest to Las Vegas. The Bad: Part 1 of the attraction upstairs goes in a big loop, with no restrooms in tow. IYKYK. Stop in to the restroom before starting the stroll. There's one right by the welcome movie theatre upstairs. If you are not a huge fan of the VR stuff, the $15 price tag is steep, on top of the admission. The Ugly: No where to park for free, but in front of the attraction is paid parking for $5/hr.

Had a great time in the museum! Well worth the price. The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. We saw many videos and cool memorabilia. Fun afternoon!

Awesome!!! Well worth the money! All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend visiting.

If you are an Evel Knievel enthusiast, you will be impressed. If you aren't, you will become one. My visit to the Evel Knievel Experience in Las Vegas was nothing short of incredible. From the moment the tour began, it was clear that this was not just a collection of memorabilia, but a thoughtfully curated and immersive journey through the life of one of America's greatest daredevils. What impressed me most was the sheer depth and professionalism of the exhibits. Rather than simply highlighting a few famous moments from Evel Knievel's career, the museum does an outstanding job of chronicling his entire life story. Visitors gain an authentic understanding of both his triumphs and struggles, including the financial hardships he faced and the multiple times he nearly went broke. The experience presents him as a real person, not just a legend. The beginning of the tour includes a powerful 8-minute multimedia presentation that sets the stage perfectly. From there, the immersive exhibits just keep getting better. One after another, I was literally transported to a bygone daredevil world. Seeing the original X-1 and X-2 rockets up close was remarkable, and the beautifully restored "Big Red" Mack truck that Evel traveled in from show to show was an absolute highlight. The VR motorcycle jump added an exciting interactive element that truly made visitors feel like they were part of Evel's world. The staff elevated the experience even further. The guides were welcoming, knowledgeable, and fun, creating an atmosphere that made the museum enjoyable from start to finish. At the finish, there is plenty of hard-to-find Evel Knievel merchandise available for purchase. A special thank you goes to Mike Patterson, the developer, co-founder, owner, and operator of the Evel Knievel Experience. His passion for Evel's story is evident in every detail, and his personal insights added tremendous color and context to the exhibits. Mike's son, Jaxon, was equally inviting and went out of his way to ensure guests had a memorable visit. This is much more than a museum. It is a complete "experience" that honors Evel Knievel's legacy with authenticity, detail, and heart. Whether you're a longtime fan of Evel Knievel or simply appreciate American history, motorcycles, and larger-than-life stories, this is a must-see attraction in Las Vegas. I highly recommend it and would gladly visit again.

Outstanding! My husband heard about this, and we had to! Did the virtual jump! Both had a great time!

We had such fun on the tour place was brilliant so much to see well worth a visit came from uk to Las Vegas best staff we meet and thank you to the staff everyone of you was amazing. VR was unreal.

This place is new and well run. There is so much cool stuff to see. I just wish they had bigger shirts

Absolutely loved the Evel Knievel Experience in Las Vegas! What a fun step back into the history of one of America’s greatest daredevils. The memorabilia, stories, and atmosphere really bring Evel’s larger-than-life legacy back to life. Being from Montana, I especially loved the nod to Butte and Evel’s Montana roots. That made the experience even more special. If you grew up watching Evel Knievel—or just appreciate a true American original—this place is definitely worth a visit! Great experience, great history, and a whole lot of Montana pride!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent attraction and a really enjoyable experience. The staff were fantastic — very friendly, helpful and clearly passionate about what they do. There are some amazing artefacts to see, and I really liked that there was no rush. You can take your time and enjoy everything at your own pace with the self-guided tour. Definitely worth every dollar and well worth a visit. Highly recommended! 👌

The Evel Knievel experience certainly was entertaining. Growing up in Scotland, we found Evel Knievel and he instantly got our attention, we never had this before a daredevil, a pioneer in bringing the unique and death defying stunts to the masses. I had some memorable moments, with my toys and other than seeing his jumps. Which stood out as no one diss was doing what he did. I never knew too much about Evel Knievel, we didn’t have the abundance of information available to us then as we do now. My visit I never saw possible finding out his journey and how in his earlier career, he had developed his own team to bring his “daredevil” act to us. The technology we have now in motorbikes as some of his rides easily were 500lbs, I don’t know on brands but the bikes he used. Not intended for what he used them for and even at times should not have been used. After my visit, I spent around two and a half hours. This way I was able to take in the whole experience. Confirming that from his childhood, he always stood out and was not shy in letting people see what he envisioned. It was easy back then as not too many people, undertook what he grew his act into. This allowed them to garnish the style and look of the stunts performed. Certainly left its mark. Even to this day, I am glad I had the opportunity to visit the experience and knowing more about a hero that we had growing up. I’m being honest if truly helped the way I was able to learn and experience an experience. Side note I spoke with Steve and he was a friend of Evel his stories helped me understand even more. Growing up as a kid and getting to know more about Evel Knievel certainly was an experience. Thank you for having me, this Scotsman and the multiple pictures I have. Will live on for me years to come.

Loved it. My wife and I are both the right age to remember his heydays. The displays were excellently executed. A great mix of exhibits and information placards. The displays take you chronologically through his life. There’s a few films to watch that provide a nice chance to sit and rest. We also sprang for the virtual motorcycle jump that was pretty cool. I would be amiss if I didn’t mention the staff. Every staff member without exception was excellent. Knowledgeable, friendly and eager to answer questions. We went shortly after it opened and I don’t think the public has caught on yet. It’s located in the arts district that the public is starting to discover, so I can see it starting to get busier soon.

I have been an Evel Knievel fan since my first jump in 1972. The museum brings out the kid in you as you travel through the years. They did an amazing job time stamping history along the way. Steve the guide was very knowledgeable and overall a great personality for the museum. We ended up keeping the team after hours just talking and it was fantastic. We will be back and bringing others with next time. I won’t spoil it for others but the final part of the tour is AMAZING.

Awesome. Big fan growing up. Just awesome!

What an amazing experience! An American Icon , Evel was a legend and this experience captured his life and legacy to a T . The ride/jump experience is a must!! We jumped twice each!! Very informative and interesting. Lots of memorabilia! A must do!! Loved it!

This is a fitting museum for the GOAT, Evel Knievel! Great facilities, great displays! The skycycle, outfits, videos, and his custom hauler! Awesome place! If you’re in Vegas you have to check it out!

I don’t have the space or time to write just how AWESOME this place is!!! I had known that an Evel Knievel Museum had existed in Kansas, what I was pleased to discover was that it relocated to Las Vegas, the home of Knievel’s infamous Caesar’s Palace jump. During my vacation I took time away from couples activity to immerse myself in this epic museum that is only six weeks old. The exhibits are simply unbelievable! The bikes, outfits, skycylce….you name it…it’s all here, and it’s all REAL!!! Everything preserved ( or restored…”Big Red”) with love for the guy that inspired so many of us as children to “take the big jumps” in life. Guys….let your wife go shopping, and visit this place and be transported back you your childhood. You deserve it…..it’s what Evel would want! 😎

The museum was excellent! The exhibits covered so much history and the motorcycles are bad ass. The vehicles in the garage are jaw dropping. The employees were knowledgeable and VERY friendly. I did the VR jump and what a delight! Highly recommend this stop on your next Vegas visit.

The museum was excellent. The exhibits did a great job covering all of his jumps and history while being very visually engaging. The museum employees were also very knowledgeable and kind.

stumbled upon the Evel Knievel experience. Wow! so much to learn and great artifacts.

Staff very helpful and informative. We lov d it!

Great experience for a fan and a soon to be fan! Unbelievable memorabilia. It is evident that the staff take pride in this unique experience!! To do!! Well worth it!

Parking you will pay for. They do not own lot next to building. Great spot full of memorabilia and videos of most of his jumps. 1-2 hours it can be seen. Get there first thing in the morning when it opens. Nobody was there the day I went. Staff was great helped explain many things. Great for anyone who watched him as a kid or loves motorcycles. Very informative and brought back memories when I was a kid. Whole set up was nicely done. Would not recommend jump at end. It was ok but not worth the price, plus it might give some people vertigo. Highly recommend the rest of it.

Wow, what a great experience, visiting Vegas for the first time from UK, staff were excellent and really took me back. Evel’s Mack truck was what did it for me, took my breath away when I saw it

What a wonderfully curated collection of a piece of American history. Like a trip back in time. So great to watch my brother, the biggest Evel fan, revisit his childhood hero on full display. A must see when visiting Vegas!

Must see if you are an Evel fan! Very well done and passionate people to lead you through the experience

Amazing experience, was a great trip through the life of Evel Knievel. One of the best things to do in Vegas ! The staff and facilities was great . Get virtual reality jump it was fun . Thank you for making this tribute to a amazing man .

What a wonderful museum! We spent 2 1/2 hours exploring the museum. The exhibits are great with many videos chronicling the career of the greatest daredevil ever! Growing up in the 70’s Evel was the man! This museum was well worth the time and money. The staff were great and very helpful. It is definitely worth a visit !

Unbelievable, this place is absolutely incredible. Brings back childhood memories. So many original items and so much information. Absolutely loved the expirence.

Anyone remotely interested in the man, his life or his stunts will be awe-struck with the exhibits. We spent 2.5 hours touring the museum and could easily have spent more time. The museum follows his life in chronological order with many informational plaques and videos. Multiple bikes have been restored or recreated. His big Mack truck is a highlight. The virtual reality motorcycle ride is worth the extra money. This museum is one of the best bangs for your buck in Vegas. Don't think twice - just go.

Wow! This museum was awesome and I was only a little boy when Evel was popular. I had the wind up motorcycle and I think I had the lunchbox. As I got older, I learned more about him and this museum did not disappoint in learning more about one of my childhood heroes. After seeing this large display of historical artifacts regarding Evel Knievel, I now place him up there as a childhood hero. This is a must see for any fan and of 70s culture. Don’t miss the short documentary movie at the beginning of the tour. It could be hard to miss, but it’s right in the first room that has displays regarding his childhood in beginnings. There is a timer clock in the upper left corner of that room. The door is open automatically when the movie is over so you know when to go in. They don’t have a sign yet so be on the lookout. Just check out the photos and videos I took from inside this two-story discovery of the man, the myth, the legend, EVEL KNEIVEL!

I had an amazing visit to the Evel Knievel experience today. Joe Pennington was my tour guide and he really knows his stuff. It’s worth the extra fee to do VR jump!
