A new Top Gun attraction is coming to the famous Vegas Strip, and maybe another in Orlando, FL.
Paramount Global and Advent Allen Entertainment have partnered to create Top Gun Las Vegas for fans of the beloved films, promising thrilling rides, jet simulators, immersive experiences, and entertainment.
And food and drinks, of course. The venue will feature a new restaurant and bar themed after the Hard Deck bar in “Top Gun: Maverick,” with live piano playing and singing just like in the movies.
As for a Central Florida location for the Top Gun attraction, Advent Allen Entertainment is currently evaluating potential sites in the Orlando area for a location.
Details Are Classified
Details surrounding the proposed Top Gun attraction remain classified, but the powers that be are well at work with development. Top Gun Las Vegas is scheduled to open at the Strat Hotel in 2028, located at the iconic north end of the Vegas Strip.
“This innovative venture marks a new milestone for ‘Top Gun’ and expands Paramount’s portfolio of immersive entertainment,” said Pam Kaufman, president and CEO of international markets, global consumer products, and experiences at Paramount. “Paramount is committed to delivering authentic, mind-blowing experiences for fans, and Mark Advent and Bill Allen are the perfect team to make this destination soar.”
“The Top Gun films are one of the most emotionally charged stories of our time,” added Mark Advent, co-founder of Advent Allen Entertainment and creator of Las Vegas’ New York New York Hotel & Casino. “We’re proud to unite with Paramount to bring this timeless, action-packed epic to life — delivering experiences that embody teamwork, excellence, the exhilaration of speed, and the thrill of flying. We are pulling out all the stops and looking forward to bringing Top Gun to even higher heights on the strip and beyond.”
“Our vision is to connect the excitement of these films with the reality of elite aviation, creating a unique, non-theme park attraction in a standalone, non-gated setting,” added Advent. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to develop a destination rooted in two of the most celebrated movies in history. With Top Gun now a multigenerational franchise, it boasts a dedicated fan base eager to experience more of the action firsthand in an authentic environment.”
Top Gun Attraction Will Honor Veterans and Current Military
“Every aspect of the experience – programming, design, food, drink, and execution – will be crafted to create a welcoming environment,” Advent says. “Our goal is to make veterans, current, and future active-duty military personnel feel comfortable and valued, fostering a sense of community.
