The High Roller Observation Wheel Ranked No. 5 on TripAdvisor’s
List of 25 “Top Trending U.S. Attractions”

High Roller Was the Only Las Vegas Attraction Included

The High Roller, the world’s highest observation wheel located at the The LINQ Promenade, ranked No. 5 among TripAdvisor’s recently released list of 25 “Top Trending U.S. Attractions,” resulting from its Seasonal Attractions Index for Spring. The High Roller was the only Las Vegas attraction to appear on the list, which included attractions from around the United States.

Attractions were selected based on the greatest percentage increase in traveler interest and search activity on TripAdvisor between 2016 and 2017. TripAdvisor attractions include 56,000 bookable tours, activities and experiences in 2,500 destinations and 165 countries.

“It is a thrill to be the only Las Vegas attraction to appear on TripAdvisor’s list of Top Trending U.S. Attractions alongside such illustrious company,” said Shaun Swanger, vice president and general manager, The LINQ Promenade and High Roller. “We’re gratified to know TripAdvisor’s customers have an ever-growing interest in learning more about the High Roller experience.”

One of the most iconic destinations on the Las Vegas Strip, offering expansive, 360-degree views of the Las Vegas Strip and beyond, the High Roller has captured the world’s attention since opening in 2014. Visitors can not only experience the 30-minute ride inside one of 28 spherical, climate-controlled cabins, but also a variety of other dynamic experiences aboard the High Roller:
