An enduring but long-struggling Las Vegas attraction, Vegas Indoor Skydiving, is set to close on Jan. 25, 2025.

The attraction, near the Las Vegas Convention Center, faced a series of burbles in recent years and has now hit terminal velocity, causing the owner to pull the ripcord on the free-flying operation. Vegas Indoor Skydiving was in business for an impressive 42 years before its fall.

We have never skydived (we’re a “Whuffo,” according to those who have), so our lingo may not slap or be exactly on the fleek here, but you get the idea.

Indoor skydiving is just like real skydiving, except its for people who don’t want sky, weather, risk or bragging rights.

Vegas Indoor Skydiving announced its looming closure on social media, saying, “Over four decades, the facility has welcomed more than 1,000,000 flyers of all ages, from five-year-old daredevils to 103-year-old adventurers. Celebrities such as Tom Hanks, Steve Aoki, Travis Pastrana, Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears and Howie Mandel have taken flight within its walls. The facility also served as a training ground for skydiving students and a springboard for hundreds of employees who went on to become doctors, lawyers, firemen, amazing parents, business owners, and overall extraordinary members of society.”

That’s right, that Tom Hanks. We are going back and updating our main image for this story accordingly.

Vegas Indoor Skydiving touts itself as “the first commercial wind tunnel to open in the U.S., inspiring a global phenomenon.”

We have no idea if any of that is true, but Vegas Indoor Skydiving has undeniably been around a long time.

As for the future of the place, we’re told the owners of the building and surrounding land (about 13 acres), The Siegel Group, are looking for a new restaurant partner for the space.

The company has big plans for the site down the road, promising a resort project that will “change the Vegas skyline.”

As for your skydiving options in Las Vegas, you can always jump out of a perfectly good plane, but there’s another controlled skydive attraction in the works at Neonopolis. This attraction is outside, but provides all the safety and convenience of doing it indoors.

Yes, yes, we broke that news back in July 2022. Why must you always harp on our prolific and undeniable successes while completely ignoring our failures and faults, should those ever actually exist someday?

Congrats to the folks at Vegas Indoor Skydiving for their incredible run. Today’s attractions are all about immersion and virtuality and disruption and vibe-syncing and trendjackability and a number of other words we didn’t know exist until right this minute.

The closure of Vegas Indoor Skydiving is a terrible blow for not only thrill seekers but also ChapStick sales persons. Assuming those exist.
