A specialty lighting syste provides a spectacular danding light show nightly, which is visible throughout the Las Vegas Valley. Visit the Stratosphere Tower for ultimate thrill rides, unparalleled views and dazzling show.

Big Shot

Be catapulted 160 feet in the air as you overlook the the majestic Las Vegas Valley from the 921 foot high platform atop the Stratosphere Tower. Traveling at 45 miles per hour, riders experience 4G's as they reach the very top, and feel negative G's on the way down.

Insanity

Dangle 64 feet over the edge of the Stratosphere Tower off a massive mechanical arm at a height of over 900 feet and spin around. Insanity the Ride is a truly mindbending experience! Reach speeds of up to 3 G's in the open air as you spin around on Insanity and be propelled up to an angle of 70 degrees, tilting your body into a position facing straight down! If you're brave enough to keep your eyes open you'll be rewarded with a breathtaking view of historic downtown Las Vegas.

X-Scream

Ever wonder what it would feel like to go over the edge of a 866 foot high cliff? No need to wonder any longer. Check out the X-Scream on top of the Stratosphere Tower. The massive teeter-totter like ride will propel you and several other riders head-first, 27 feet over the edge of the Stratosphere Tower. After being shot over the edge, you'll dangle weightlessly above the Las Vegas strip before being pulled back and propelled over again for more.
