Whether you want to celebrate the last days of summer with your kids or with a few kids at heart, there’s still time to sneak in one last fun-filled getaway to Las Vegas. And the best part? This weekend, you can snag some great savings to The Strip’s most beloved theme park.

The Adventuredome at Circus Circus in Las Vegas is celebrating its 20th anniversary with discounts all weekend long. On “Throwback Thursday,” Aug. 22, admission will return to its original opening day prices: $12.95 for premium admission (for those 48 inches or taller) and $8.95 for junior admission (for those 33-48 inches tall).

Thursday is also when you can catch the theme park’s big birthday bash, which starts at 11 a.m. with a chorus of clowns singing “Happy Birthday” before confetti cannons are fired in celebration. Then, you can dig into the massive cupcake tower before exploring the rest of the five-acre park.

The first 50 guests on Thursday will also score a free Adventuredome hat and T-shirt. If you can’t make it out on Thursday, you can still enjoy discounted premium tickets ($20) Friday through Sunday.

The Adventuredome is home to high-thrill rides like the Canyon Blaster, which hits speeds of up to 55 mph as you fly through a double loop and double corkscrew, and the Sling Shot, which shoots you into the air at 4G speed before dropping you into a free fall.

The massive indoor park is also home to kid-friendly attractions like its FX Theatre, a 4D experience that’s currently featuring adventures with Spongebob Squarepants and Dora the Explorer. The family can also enjoy laser tag, miniature golf, rock climbing and plenty of midway games. There are also free clown shows daily.

So what are you waiting for? Book yourself a cheap flight to Las Vegas for your last-minute getaway and celebrate the end of summer at Adventuredome.
