Showcase Mall

Perhaps the most family friendly shopping venue on the Las Vegas Strip is the Showcase Mall. Based upon the number of retail outlets, it is quite small in comparison to many of the big hotel shopping arcades, but it features several attractions that set it apart, including M&M World featuring everything related to the colorful chocolate treats, the World of Cocoa Cola with its massive glass Coke bottle, and a branch of Ethel M. Chocolates three must-see destinations for anyone with a sweet tooth.

Also contained within the Showcase Mall and featuring IMAX is United Artists Cinema, which is the only first-run movie theater directly on the Strip. The below-ground-level arcade known as GameWorks offers unlimited access to the latest video games, and the gift shop known as the Grand Canyon Experience is one of the best places to buy souvenirs, from T-shirts to glassware, on the South Las Vegas Strip.

Food is also a major attraction at the Showcase Mall. Inside the La Salsas Food Court are Del Taco, Dreyer's Ice Cream, Duffy's Fish Fry, Noble Roman's, Panda Express, Starbucks, Subway, Weinerschnitzel, and Wendy's.

The Showcase Mall is located just north of MGM Grand at 3785 Las Vegas Boulevard South, Las Vegas, Nevada 89109. There is no valet parking here, but self-parking is available in the adjacent multi-story covered garage for $3 with validation.
