MGM Grand Adventures was a theme park adjacent to the MGM Grand, a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, United States. The theme park and resort were both developed by MGM Grand, Inc. Construction began in October 1991, and both projects opened on December 18, 1993. MGM Grand Adventures originally occupied 33 acres (13 ha), located northeast of the MGM Grand. The park featured a movie studio theme. It included seven rides and four theaters offering various shows.
The park suffered financially, in part due to a low number of attractions. It also faced competition from the indoor Adventuredome amusement park, also on the Strip. In 1997, the MGM Grand began construction on a pool, a spa, and a conference center, taking up 15 acres (6.1 ha) of theme park land. The park was reduced by 40 percent to 18.8 acres (7.6 ha). In 1998, the park switched to a seasonal schedule. It closed for the season on September 4, 2000, and never reopened to the public. In 2001, the theme park became a rental facility for corporate functions under the name The Park at MGM Grand. It operated this way for the next few years, offering a reduced number of rides.
A condo hotel project, The Signature at MGM Grand, opened on a portion of the theme park land in 2006. Topgolf opened one of its driving ranges on the remaining acreage in 2016.
