The live action version of the long running tv show. Lots of fun, lots of amazing engineering and a great deal of harmless violence. One team slogan: "Rest in Pieces" Great for young aspiring engineers. They're serious robot people, who also put on a good show. Cameras weren't allowed during the event, but check out YouTube for "Battlebots" and you'll find plenty. There was a snafu with my ticket involving the dreaded Ticketmaster (a one star service, rounding up). An hour on hold got nowhere. But the BBot people responded to email almost immediately and fixed it all! Great service! read more

BattleBots - The cage, before the action - Performing Arts Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Solid good family entertainment just off the strip but with easy access for locals and visitors. The competition show had four real matches and a fun exhibition match against a vegas slot machine. There was much destruction and great engineering. I opted for the VIP seats as they were in the first two rows and I thought it was a good upgrade from standard seats. There is also platinum VIP with get you a high top table and un limited snacks and non alcoholic beverages. The bad of this show was the cheesy WWE style of introduction of the bots which included pre made trash talking by characters wearing wigs with poorly done drawn on tattoos and fake sleeves. I think if they kept it to the bots it would be much better with out the time filler. Parking is 10 dollars but the lot closes 45 minutes after the show lets out so you can't leave your car there and go out on the strip read more

Such a fun show for the older kids! Come early to get better seats. We got there 15 minutes before the show started and were in the back, still able to see from our seats. The arena is small enough and they do project the battle on the TV. Each battle is only 3 minutes so there are some bantering between the teams as they set up for the next battle. The littles were over it within 45 minutes. read more

Grew up watching the show, and remained a loyal fan since. We had such an amazing time during our show and the customer service was beyond professional and helpful. Everyone was super friendly. Decided to go all out with the VIP package and the backstage tour, meet and greet with drivers/builders, and seeing my favorite robots was outstanding. We loved every single minute of it. Totally recommend this if you're a fan of the show and in Las Vegas, would definitely go again. read more

This was so fun! I took my daughter to go on our trip to Vegas. We both had a blast, she's 14 and I am 36 and we both enjoyed our time together. We did the tour afterwards and that was pretty cool and worth it we had decent seats even in general admission. Everyone was super nice and it was a lot more comedic than I expected it to be. I found a ticket on Groupon and it was well worth it. Only critique would have to be the view. It was hard to see the stage and even when we moved closer, it was still not the easiest to see. There was a screen and I found myself looking at the screen more than the actual battle. But that's it, with the tone and money! read more

Great atmosphere for the kids. They get to watch robots battle each other and the employees make it feel like a show. It is more of a show than the atmosphere of true battle bots but worth checking out. read more

So much fun, we'll definitely be going back because watching once isn't enough! I have 2 young sons who are huge fans of the show and know every single bot. As soon as we stepped in they were in complete awe. There's a small store out front where you can buy memorabilia and interact with members of the show. The venue has an intimate feel so it didn't seem like there were any bad seats at all. The show itself was so entertaining, even for our friends who went with us and were not familiar with the show. The parents in our group all commented that they didn't expect to be so entertained as well--the hosts and competitors were all so friendly and funny! After the show they were kind enough to take photos with us and sign my kids' Battlebots book. When we got back home both my sons immediately started making their own makeshift bots using cardboard and their r/c cars. They're enjoying the tv show even more now. I can't recommend this show enough for people of all ages! read more

I honestly didn't know what to expect when I came here. BattleBots is awesome and entertaining for all ages! Great for if you have kids and you are in Vegas! It's like a show and a competition. Plenty of parking. The people are all super nice here. They have a bar and a store right outside in the lobby. They have a photo op and you can actually see some of the background of what they do in the background! But the show was really cool you watch the bots battle each other and then they show clips of previous battles. Really cool and fun experience! read more

Visited Vegas and saw signs for this since the don't come to California any more. This was a huge disappointment... tickets way overpriced. Nothing like it is on TV. This is there nightly shoe which where dumbed down version of what's on the show... For the price I expected some good action for 2-3 hours . This was not the case... was just over 1 hr of watching videos on the screens and a whole 5 matchs that lasted 2-3 minutes of no real action. Not recommended.... read more

Great family fun and audience interaction. Really enjoyed it. Friendly staff . Would love to do it again.

This was a bucketlist (hey that'd be a great bot name!) experience. While there is a little showcraft to the competitors and intros, these are real , well known bots fighting. The desplays give us even more. Plus we literally hit the jackpot with a bonus battle. To top it off real former host, and fine comedian Bil Dwyer, is the master of ceremonies for the super charged fun. I was confused by their poor parking signage and parked in the wrong lot*, but the BB house manager more than made up for it. Park in the lot immediately surrounding the arena tent. Not next door at The Horseshoe. read more

Just went to this show First of all did u know that they have a designated driver for each of these robots and it's not the original owners? Basically these guys suck at driving so the show is stupid as hell. Save your money. Don't go see this. Total waste of money read more

Battlebots the Las Vegas show is an interesting idea assured to rope in fans both obsessive and casual. Both may enter the arena but only one will leave a winner. Unfortunately for many who love the show it will be the casual fan. If you think about it a little you probably won't be surprised. Appeal to the lowest common denominator. There are 5 "fights" one of which is just the death of a "robot" that is built to be destroyed. The robots that were chosen from the show specifically to elicit some level of nostalgia from someone who watched the show back in the day or recently but were not necessarily competitive. Then rebuilt to be less destructive and take a punishment. Also, that look like they are fighting but aren't really. It's more of a dance to look interesting but not inflict any real damage on the opponent. The main event or final fight featured detuned versions of actually competitive robots that appeared to be designed to come apart without suffering any real significant damage. I think the biggest let down was hunger to win the real opponents have in the competition was missing. I'm sure the casuals will it eat it up, but my wife and I didn't. read more

My boys had the greatest time watching the show and seeing the robots. It one of their favorite shows to watch with their Uncle so it definitely hit a soft spot. Loved all the funny and corny jokes but in for the adults in the show as well. read more

If you are a fan of battlebots then you will absolutely love this show!!! Now I read a lot of reviews first, so let me set things straight. You are not seeing the show robots (Except I did see the real Bronco, woo hoo!) The show bots cost upwards of $30k-$50k and are not going to take the beating that the destruct a thon ones do-Night after night. Plus there is no weight limit of 250lbs. So these guys pack harder hits!! The staff was awesome answering questions before the show started. The best deal in Las Vegas was the back stage pass!!! It was $25 dollars and we got too meet some of the builders teams ( not the celebrities but those that work in the bots) and see the bots up close!!! So for diehard fans like us who came to Vegas specifically for Battlebots, it was worth every penny! Cool souvenirs but need more pictures of the bots in action especially Hydra and Bronco, just my opinion. -also more shirts and magnets. Best show we saw all week! Keep it up and can't wait to watch you guys next week on the TV read more

Save your money if you've seen them in Long Beach or don't expect much. You'll be disappointed. It's a money grab, but cool to see once if you haven't been. VIP won't be worth it you are just doing it for better seats. Scorpios original team being there was the best part of the show, but NO other original drivers were there. Wish they'd do it the way they did in SoCal. read more

Great staff!! Love it! Worth every penny! The staff was very nice and helpful. Kids loved it

Best in Vegas! Want a great show? See BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon. Fun for everyone. It's a blast!

Firstly I quite like the TV show so was excited to see this, however the insufferable, rude, aggressive, dismissive nature of the old white-haired guy hosting (Bill ... something, I didn't care to remember his last name) absolutely ruined it for me and I overheard many different people commenting on this very thing on the way out. Belittling the other actors as he interviewed them meanwhile he's stumbling over his own words like a senile old grandpa, people can pick up on others energy and this guys energy (and hosting skills) stink! Other than him the show was good and fun and the other host was fantastic. read more

Such a fun experience to see in person. The commentary and acting was a little over the top and annoying but nothing can touch the action.

Great experience! Lots of nostalgia but also live robot combat. Surpassed my expectations!

More show, less battle. Wouldn't go again, however we did have a good time. The battlebots were cool but neutered so they didn't really break each other. Fun time, just not what we thought it would be. read more

90% of the robots used in our show didn't work properly and the hosts even joked about it. Letting a junky robot beat up a slot machine did not make up for the other 3 battles being a complete waste of everyone's time. Was truly disappointing because the people were doing their best to make it fun, but the actual battles - absolutely boring and uneventful. Please use working robots in the future. Won't be coming back read more

Such a fun experience for all! The kiddos loved the show & so did the adults! The hosts were entertaining not only for kids, but the puns and jokes would make any adult laugh too. Even the security guard was caught grooving. You can tell everyone is passionate about what they do. It was a great experience and the kids had a blast! read more

Friendliest, most amazing staff you'll find in Las Vegas. They really went above and beyond to make a memorable experience for my kids. And great show, too. Thank you BattleBots! read more

I'm a Battlebot lover and went to see Battlebot Destruct-a-Thon. I paid my VIP tickets $155 each and I don't think it was worth paying that much, because those who paid $77 were seated only a few chairs away from me. The show lasted about 90 minutes. There were 5 fights, 3 of which ended in a knockout in a short time. There were real championship bots, but driven by amateurs employed by Battlebot. The show didn't compare to the fights you see on TV. If you go, buy the cheapest tickets, because it's not worth paying for VIP tickets. read more

This place is all of my childhood fantasies come to life. I'm sure a lot of us adults remember scrolling through the channels and coming across robots fighting each other and setting each other on fire. It was so cool, and I always wished I could go see it. And now I can in Vegas! The Battlebots Arena has all of your favorite robots and their creators as well as a gift shop and of course the Battlebot Arena itself. It's great for kids, and there's never a dull moment. When I went, they had a robot made from a slot machine that was ripped to shreds. (Fake) Money was everywhere and it was amazing! read more

Just under delivered. It is nothing like the show. The teams that built the robots aren't there. The bots themselves are the old versions. The cast tries to liven it up, but they are simply actors, not engineers putting their bots in the ring. Don't recommend read more

Loved this show ! These builders are in it with their hearts and soul !!! And of course their brainpower to construct these bots !
