With super-affordable hotel accommodations (starting at $89/night!), the 2017 International Convention in Las Vegas is already a great vacation destination. But if you thought it's only for grown-ups, you haven't looked at Vegas!
For starters, there's a surprising number of cool FREE activities. Las Vegas is great at leveraging its glamour into fun free attractions, such as the Dancing Fountains at the Bellagio, or the Wildlife Habitat at the Flamingo Hotel.
There are nearby natural attractions, like the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, and the massive Hoover Dam.
You'll also find a huge range of family-friendly shows in the major venues and hotels. Magic and illusion are Las Vegas mainstays, and performers like Nathan Burton offer daytime shows aimed at general audiences.
