Las Vegas isn’t just for adults anymore. This high energy city provides fun and entertainment for people of all ages. Teenagers are no different. While the legal age to gamble in Las Vegas is 21, a multitude of activities are available to keep teens busy while the adults have their own brand of fun.
Every major hotel in Las Vegas has a pool. Many of them have several. Mandalay Bay, for instance, has eight. They feature a giant wave pool where they will hold all ages concerts. They also have a \"lazy river\" that teens love.

Las Vegas has the best shows and entertainment in the world. It has concerts, comedians, theater, and shows that defy explanation. Some of the most popular with teens are:
The Blue Man Group: Performing nightly at The Venetian Hotel, the Blue Man group is a world-renowned show featuring three blue men performing musical, comedic and acrobatic routines for all to enjoy.
Penn and Teller: At the Rio Hotel and Casino, located just off of the Las Vegas strip, Penn and Teller have been performing their own unique brand of comedy and magic for more than 20 years.
The Amazing Johnathan: The performance of The Amazing Johnathan is unlike any show you have seen. Where most magicians pride themselves on perfect slight of hand, the Amazing Johnathan uses bad magic and jokes to shock and entertain his audiences. He is currently performing at The Sahara Hotel and Casino.

At Mandalay Bay, teens can explore a massive indoor aquarium and walk among countless species of marine life.
The possibilities are endless. Movie theaters, a wax museum, gondola rides, go cart racing, a circus, food, tours, and many, many, other activities are available to entertain teens in Las Vegas.
