    This museum is one of the most amazing experiences someone could ever have. Grant Philipo is a living legend, and his collection is an absolute joy and privilege. There is so much love and care that goes into not only the restoration of gorgeous original garments and showpieces, but also the displays and info frames for each costume. Not to mention, Grant has a showgirl themed snack room stocked with treats just in case you didn't already mistake the museum for heaven. If you're a fan of theater, art, history, fashion, or design, then you absolutely positively cannot miss this amazing collection.

    Probably one the coolest places to go off the strip. Grant, the owner, is a great guy and a true expert in his field. I was amazed at his collection and knowledge of everything entertainment in the history of Las Vegas! My wife and I had a blast! Thank you sir! Clarence was Awesome too! Definitely dead to have had his company as well. This place and experience is definitely a must for anyone visiting Las Vegas!

    What a great place to walk through las Vegas history. An fantastic private collection of fashions, photos and stories from the past. Wax figurines of starlets of Hollywood's golden days. One of a kind pieces, head dresses, and evening gowns. A lot have been restored to their glory. Some are still alive with fresh memories.

    This museum is literally the best thing about Las Vegas. I ended up staying one more night to actually go in. So worth your time, ans more. Grant is so knowledgeable about costumes, construction, show producing, show production, history of showgirl, everything really. Make time to see this gem. After contacting the email on the website, make sure to check your spam folder as well. Best museum in Nevada honestly.

    My sisters of the Glitter Girls of Las Vegas Red Hat Society took me there for my birthday. What a hidden Jewel!! When I think of Las Vegas I think of showgirls. This place is packed full of those costumes,props, the most wonderful jewelry and dresses worn by the greatest performers that gray star movies our stages in Las Vegas. The history and tour related by Grant Filipo who himself was a producer a dancer and a costume maker. I believe that Grant is more than a curatorand owner/ partner because of the love he emanates for the showgirl era. Everybody that comes to this town should visit this place. This place needs a bigger public venue. My grandchildren don't know about showgirls and what it was like in the '50s the '60s the 70s and the '80s.... This was an awesome art and history lesson

    What a fantastic museum!! We had such a good time during the tour, and felt so welcomed. Be prepared to spend several hours here, I promise it’s worth it. This collection is really a must see, please if you are visiting, ignore all those museums on the strip…. This is a personable Las Vegas experience. I’m lucky enough to live close by, I’ll be bringing more friends here in the future. Grant, you are amazing and you NEED a book!! ❤️‍🔥

    Been here a few times, love it and want to live here with all these gorgeous costumes and bedazzled head dresses and yes, even the wax figures! It's fabulous and the owner can tell you everything about every item here and more! She's the best! It's a combination of old Hollywood and Las Vegas and quite a beautiful collection of jewels, feathers, elaborate gowns, pearls, masks, etc. Makes you think of Liberace and I'm sure they were good friends in the day! This is a must see! So much fun and exciting! Hello Gorgeous!❤️💞💎

    I don’t exaggerate when I say this museum is one of the most incredible places I have ever been, anywhere. The quality and size of Grant’s collection (or at least what is on display currently - there is always more he is restoring or storing elsewhere) alone is jaw dropping and well worth the trip - there are incredible costumes, artifacts and props everywhere you turn in this beautiful home. It doesn’t matter if you’re specifically interested in showgirls, entertainment, Hollywood, costume design, fashion, general history - there is just so much for everyone here! But what truly sets the Showgirl Museum apart is Grant himself. He is an incredible host and tour guide: charming, funny and incredibly knowledgeable, he teaches through facts, personal experiences and anecdotes in a way that is accessible to absolutely anyone - regardless of what background knowledge you have entering the museum, you are guaranteed to leave with so much more. On top of being an amazing tour guide with a brain like an encyclopedia, he is an incredibly talented designer, producer, conservator-restorer, and clearly respected member of the industry and community - it is really a treat to be able to experience this incredible collection with someone so passionate and dedicated. He is also extremely generous with his time - he spent over 4 hours with my dad and I! We didn’t realize how much time had passed until we left! I rarely write reviews, but the Showgirl Museum is a truly special experience - and difficult to describe in words. I urge anyone and everyone to visit at least once or donate if possible to keep this amazing production going. I will definitely be back, and hope to see the expansion into a public venue soon. Thank you Grant and everyone involved for all that you do to preserve the glitz and glamour of Vegas!!

    Grant’s Las Vegas Showgirl Museum is a must see when you are in town. He has an incredible collection of costumes from shows, movies, TV, and more. Bob Mackie Originals you can look at up close without glass obstructing your view. Grant is a master designer and costume restorer and has a fascinating story for every item in his collection. It is clear he is passionate about saving costume masterpieces from destruction and preserving history so we can continue to learn from vintage costume production today. We spent two and a half hours touring the museum and we need to go back another time to truly see everything. Definitely a unforgettable experience. Thank you Grant! We will be back again!

    This museum was our favorite part of our Vegas trip in October. We had the best time with Grant the owner. His collection, knowledge and anecdotes were amazing! We were there for three hours and can't wait to go back. My girlfriends want to take a trip to Vegas just to meet Grant and see his gorgeous collection.

    Arrived for our tour at the Las Vegas Showgirl Museum and our fabulous host was Grant who welcomed us into the museum with a pleasant personality and was very charming and enthusiastic about the collection in the museum! Grant knows everything there is to know about the Vegas shows, the showgirls, their outfits, the industry, and their history. We were so impressed with Grant and the tour that we highly recommend it for everyone! This is a beautiful, spectacular, well curated collection featuring the best of the Vegas showgirl shows and so much more! Grant is very meticulous and detailed and has such wonderful entertaining stories about the shows and the industry; he was very impressive and we loved him and the collection! This tour is a MUST SEE in Vegas! 10 Stars out of 10 Stars and then some!

    this place is one of the most amazing collections/museums/experiences i've ever seen, and it's absolutely a must see in vegas. i'm begging you, leave the strip. I could have listened to Grant tell stories for 5 more days, easily. What a life he's lived! And what an impressive collection of costumes and treasures. Grant has such an encyclopedic knowledge and is such a funny, charismatic storyteller. If you have any interest in pop culture, costumes, performing arts, museums, vegas history, showgirls, dance, burlesque, anything that sparkles, this place is for you. Be prepared to spend more than 2 hours though! But it's ABSOLUTELY worth it! What a special place!
