Madame Tussauds Las Vegas
The Basics
Madame Tussaud, a Parisian wax sculptor who lived in the 18th and 19th centuries, created death masks of famous victims of the French Revolution, including Louis XVI, Marie Antoinette, and Robespierre. In the early 19th century, she toured Great Britain with her wax likenesses of famous—and infamous—figures, marking the start of the Madame Tussauds brand, which boasts locations across Europe, Asia, Australia, and in several American cities.
Each of the wax figures takes several hundred hours to make, with human-hair wigs, fiberglass eyeballs, painted details, and meticulous makeup. The Las Vegas attraction is home to a range of likenesses including athletes, musicians, comic book heroes, and, of course, Elvis. Madame Tussauds is one of the attractions accessible with visitor passes such as the Las Vegas Explorer Pass and Go Las Vegas Card.

When to Get There
You can purchase a discounted ticket for entry after 6pm, otherwise Madame Tussauds opens at 10am. Also, keep in mind that sometimes the attraction closes early for special events, so check the website for updates. Overall, the best time to visit Las Vegas is during the spring and fall, so expect to encounter the largest crowds then.
The Venetian Resort
Madame Tussauds is located at the Venetian’s Grand Canal Shoppes, a major attraction at the resort that is packed with luxury shopping, plus cafés and restaurants. You can also take a romantic gondola ride along the hotel’s man-made canal for a taste of Italy in Las Vegas. And of course, there’s a large casino area and entertainment options.
