Located just three miles south of the Las Vegas Strip, the Silverton Hotel and Casino offers a beautiful rustic lodge theme. Originally opened in May 1994 as Boomtown Blue Diamond, the Silverton Casino has undergone a few renovations over the decades to upgrade the hotel’s accommodations with modern features as well as create exciting venues for outdoor enthusiasts.

One of the Silverton Casino’s unique attractions is its signature 117,000-gallon reef aquarium where you can admire thousands of tropical fish, three species each of stingrays and sharks, and even catch some live mermaid shows!

Another signature attraction located at the Silverton Casino is the 2-story, 165,000-square-foot Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World, which features amazing true-to-nature dioramas of wildlife scenes, an indoor archery range, live duck habitat, multiple aquariums, a shooting gallery, and more.


FUN FACT: The aquarium inspired the team for the 2007 drama Lucky You to have actress Debra Messing film a scene dressed as a mermaid for an aquatic show (the scene was later cut from the final film).


The Silverton has been featured on the big and small screen a number of times and is even making some international appearances.

One recent production is German rapper Capo’s “Alles Auf Rot” music video. The song, filmed in the main pit area of the Silverton Casino, now has over 7 million views and features the performer playing roulette in the casino while surrounded by stacks of chips, whiskey, and women.

The Silverton will also be making an appearance in the upcoming 2019 Chinese Netflix & Amazon Prime series 7 Days Alive, starring Chen Li and Qianyuan Wang.

We were lucky enough to be invited along for the blessing of the production on day 1 of filming.

BONUS: Check out the full video for “Alles Auf Rot” below which also features Eldorado Canyon, a very popular ghost town filming location in Nelson, Nevada.
