Dig This Las Vegas

800 W. Roban Ave., Las Vegas, Nevada

This larger-than-life sandbox is the perfect place for adults to become kids again, and live the thrill of operating massive machinery in a model construction site. A range of options are available that allow you to get behind the wheel of a bulldozer, excavator, or loader. Dig, push, and lift your way around this unique playground.

After receiving brief safety instructions, participants choose from a variety of bulldozers or excavators and hop behind the wheel, where a professional guide offers a short orientation before the earth literally starts to move. Learn to dig, move and stack massive tires, play a round of “Excavator Basketball,” or ride a “Bulldozer Teeter-Totter” back and forth over a giant mound. There is also the option to design a team challenge for a group of coworkers.

  • Visitors need to make advance reservations online.

  • Wear closed-toe shoes in order to operate the equipment.

  • You must pass a Breathalyzer test; anyone will blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.06 percent or higher will not be allowed to participate and their reservation will be canceled and not refunded.

  • There are two areas for spectators to watch the action.

  • Participants must be at least 8 years old, and measure 48 inches (122 centimeters) tall.

Dig This Las Vegas is located south of the Strip, about 20 minutes from Mandalay Bay and the Harry Reid International Airport and about 6 minutes from the M Resort Spa Casino by car. Taxis and ridesharing services are easily available around Las Vegas. Plus, the site offers ample parking if you plan to drive.

Book in advance and arrive 20 minutes before your scheduled start time to ensure you’re there for the safety orientation class. Overall, you can expect the biggest crowds in Las Vegas in the spring and fall months because of the mild weather. Also, weekends attract visitors all year round.

For those looking for other hands-on interactive experiences, there’s the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Here, thrillseekers can get behind the wheel with one of the racing packages featuring NASCAR and Indy race cars and exotic models like Ferrari and Lamborghini. There are also drive-along options, in addition to watching races from the grandstand.
