Although Las Vegas isn’t as cheap as it’s always been, many shows, attractions, and things to do offer military discounts to both active-duty military members and veterans.
I figured it’d be helpful to point out which attractions offer a discount to veterans and those currently serving, because quite frankly, you’ve earned it.
The motivation to put something like this together is the amount of “fluff” out there on the internet with BS deals, deals that are long gone, etc. – An accurate resource was much needed.
Attractions on the Strip
Swingers Crazy Golf at Mandalay Bay: Full Disclosure… I didn’t think Swingers was a value for $30-$35 per 9 holes, but their military discount knocks that down to $22.50 and makes it more compelling.
HyperX Esports Arena at Luxor: Luxor’s Esports arena offers gaming (the video game kind of gaming) by the hour for a set price ($15 for 1 hour, $25 for 2 hours, etc) and offers a military discount of 15%.
Bodies… The Exhibition at Luxor: Bodies leverages 13 whole-body specimens and 260+ partial body specimens to provide a look under the hood of the human body. They also offer a $5 military discount, which is redeemable at the box office.

Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition at Luxor: Another educational attraction at Luxor, Titanic offers a $5 military discount at the box office.

Play Playground at Luxor: Home to 20+ interactive games, Play Playground allows adults to get their competitive juices flowing to see who can top the leaderboard.
I recently checked Play Playground out and was pleased to learn they offer a 20% discount to military members, which is only redeemable in person.
Big Apple Coaster at NYNY: Sending riders twisting, turning, diving, and even upside-down, the rooftop coaster at New York New York is plenty thrilling. Adding to the allure is the $5 discount available to members of the military redeemable at the box office.
Customers with a Military ID can buy up to 4 tickets.
Adventuredome at Circus Circus: On the topic of rides, Circus Circus’ indoor theme park offers a military discount of $2 per person when purchasing tickets in person.

Topgolf: You’ve likely heard of Topgolf before, but the version in Vegas is next level. Multiple bars, hundreds of screens, a two-level pool, and golf. All tucked right behind MGM Grand.
As part of their “Heroes Program”, Topgolf offers a 10% military discount on gameplay & room rentals and 20% off of memberships.
Dive In Movies at Cosmopolitan: During the summer, Cosmopolitan screens hit movies on their Boulevard Pool deck.
While admission typically costs $15 for non-hotel guests, complimentary entry is available for members of the military.
Madame Tussauds at Venetian: The attraction dedicated to presenting life-like wax figurines of celebrities and politicians offers a military discount that amounts to $8.50 off standard admission.
Real Bodies at Horseshoe: An attraction similar to Bodies at Luxor, Real Bodies also leverages human cadavers to explain the inner workings of the body. A military discount of $2 per ticket is offered in person at the box office.

STRAT’s SkyPod: Members of the military can score a significant 50% discount on tickets to STRAT’s SkyPod Observation Deck.
Grimaldi’s: The coal-fired oven pizzeria offers veterans and members of the military 15% off their check, any day of the year.
Attractions on Fremont Street
Neon Museum: A short distance from the Fremont Street Experience, the Neon Museum offers a military discount of $5.
I recommend adding their “Brilliant! Jackpot” light show, which illuminates historic signs in the boneyard at night with projection technology.
Mob Museum: A military discount is available both online and at the box office, good for $2 off any ticket.
Ensure you save some time to visit their Underground Speakeasy at the tail end of your visit!
Off-Strip Attractions
Atomic Museum: An attraction that may have additional appeal to members of the armed forces, the Atomic Museum details the development and testing of nuclear technology in the United States. A $2 discount is available to members of the military.
I recently stopped by – See my Review of the National Atomic Testing Museum!
PopStroke: Found south of the Strip in Town Square, PopStroke offers an $8 discount to members of the military.
Unlike other mini-golf courses in town, PopStroke looks and feels like a real course.

Natural History Museum: Located a 5-minute Uber/Lyft from Fremont Street, the Natural History Museum aims to educate visitors on life forms past and present.
Inside, you’ll find exhibits dedicated to ancient Egypt, marine life, dinosaurs, and more.
Members of the military save $2 on tickets with a valid ID.

The Old Mormon Fort: Located next door to the Natural History Museum, The Old Mormon Fort offers a $1 discount to veterans and members of the military, reducing the cost from $3 to $2.
The fort is a historic site established by Mormon missionaries in 1855 and served as an important rest stop for travelers.
I recently visited the Old Mormon Fort and found the indoor museum, outdoor fort recreation, and Adobe building (the oldest still-standing building in NV) fascinating.
The Punk Rock Museum: Located a short drive from the Strip, The Punk Rock Museum is home to thousands of authentic artifacts that help tell the story of the musical genre.
In addition to museum-like displays, the museum is also home to a bar, tattoo shop, and a jam room which allows visitors to get hands-on with band-used instruments.
Members of the military can save $3 by taking advantage of the Punk Rock Museum’s military discount.

I’m a former software salesman turned Vegas aficionado. While the craps table is my preferred habitat, I pull myself away to explore new attractions, shows, restaurants, and outdoor activities around Las Vegas with the intent of sharing my experiences.
Ultimately, I just want to help folks plan a better trip and save a few bucks in the process.
