Las Vegas is a worldwide destination for those seeking an experience like no other. Rooted in this studied architecture, Duck Duck Shed offers first-hand insights from the voices that built—and continue to build—the luxurious casinos, mega-resorts, and productions that have earned it the name The Entertainment Capital of the World. Tours, panels, and engaging discussions await industry professionals and Las Vegas enthusiasts alike.

Duck Duck Shed is organized and presented by The Neon Museum, a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization.

The Mirage’s infamous volcano was a spectacle entertaining millions for 35 years. While this innovative, free attraction delighted audiences from around the world, the design and construction of a 4.5 acre structure that would “erupt” nightly with water, fire, and color, was an incomparable engineering feat. Join us for a rare opportunity to hear from the architect, landscape architects, water engineer, and a member of the general contracting crew as they discuss building one of Las Vegas’ most recognized and celebrated destinations in the world. 

Join Steve Crupi, The Implosion Guy, the only person to broadcast from within the secure blast zone of every major Las Vegas implosion, as he reveals exclusive footage and details of each demolition that will blow you away. Explore the risks and the rewards of a city that refuses to linger in the past but make way for the future in the style of Las Vegas showmanship.
