Not to be confused with Area 51, this is an immersive art and entertainment complex. Inside, you’ve got Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart—a trippy, interactive supermarket that’s secretly a portal to bizarre alternate realities. There’s also axe-throwing, VR experiences, and a zipline over the whole place. It’s chaotic in the best way!

Ever wanted to bulldoze something? Here, you can hop into heavy machinery like excavators or bulldozers and play in a giant sandbox. They’ll teach you how to operate it, then let you dig trenches or stack tires. Did we also mention that you can crush cars? It’s a weirdly satisfying stress-reliever.

Seven Magic Mountains

The Mob Museum itself is cool—tons of gangster history and real artifacts—but downstairs, there’s a hidden speakeasy called The Underground. You sip Prohibition-era cocktails while surrounded by vintage stills and mob lore. They even distill their own moonshine. It’s a sneaky, thematic pre-wedding hangout.

Erotic Heritage Museum

Shows to See

Fremont Street Experience - Viva Vision Light Show

Fremont St, Las Vegas, NV 89101, USA
(702) 678-5600

Downtown’s massive canopy does free nightly shows, and for July 4th, they often sync to patriotic or classic hits—sometimes disco bangers like Donna Summer sneak in. It’s not a sit-down show, but the retro street vibe, with live bands nearby, makes it a casual, funky add-on. Expect a special Independence Day version around 9:00 p.m., post-fireworks.

Sphere

255 Sands Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89169, USA
(725) 258-6724

The Sphere’s immersive visuals and sound scream retro-futurism, and while the main act might be a residency (like Dead & Company in 2024), their “Postcard from Earth” show runs daily. It’s not pure disco, but the trippy, throwback sci-fi vibe pairs well with a 4th of July weekend buzz. Shows typically hit at 7:00 p.m. or 9:30 p.m.—keep an eye on the schedule for holiday tweaks.

"O" by Cirque du Soleil

Bellagio Hotel & Casino, 3600 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109, USA
(888) 488-7111

This aquatic masterpiece isn’t explicitly retro, but its timeless theatricality—think synchronized swimmers and divers in a 1.5-million-gallon pool—has a vintage Hollywood glamour that echoes the ’70s showbiz era. It’s a Vegas icon, running since 1998, with shows typically Wednesday-Sunday at 7:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. For July 4th, expect possible tweaks (like an early 4:30 p.m. slot, as seen on past holidays), but it’s a safe bet. The surreal vibe and lush soundtrack could scratch that disco-adjacent itch. Tickets start around $85, and it’s family-friendly (ages 5+). We recommend ALL of the Cirque du Soleil shows!

Once a hangout where patrons watched atomic bomb tests from the roof, it now boasts a dive-bar charm with a killer craft beer list and cocktails like the “Duck & Cover” (bourbon and bitters).
