Get Closer to the Jumps That Made Evel Knievel a Legend
A row of buses looked different to Evel Knievel. Where others saw traffic, he saw a challenge. The Evel Knievel Experience explores the motorcycle stunt performer’s life through authentic artifacts, interactive exhibits and stories behind his daring jumps.
Located in the Las Vegas Arts District, the museum offers longtime fans a chance to revisit the spectacle while introducing younger visitors to the man behind the red, white and blue jumpsuit.
This family-friendly stop fits into a day exploring downtown or visiting other Las Vegas tours and attractions. Add the optional VR jump for a simulated taste of the action.
