    Not sure where to put this.

    Given the new series, any chance we'll see another Star Trek Experience in Vegas or somewhere else in the future updated for the new series?

    I would absolutely love that! I never went to the original, so I’d love to see a new one open up!

    Honestly, that moment has passed. We won’t be seeing anything that grandiose again. It’s much more likely someone will mount “The Star Wars Experience.”

    I did go to the original one in Vegas back circa 1996 or so. It was okay, but ultimately not much to write home about. Most of it was set dressing around the Vegas Hilton and branding on menus and stuff like that.

    The technology exists today to make something much more immersive, but of course, it would be spendy, and then there is the problem that always crops up with attractions like this: when you do go, it's a crowded jam of people that tends to ruin it for everyone. Nobody wants to experience stuff like this with ten thousand of their closest friends.

    Getting beamed up and sent to the bridge was amazing, and the Borg ride was as immersive as it gets :D

    I would not be surprised if CBS/Paramount resurrected some kind of experience. They seem committed to growing the brand beyond the limited scope it was at when the other Experience was operating so why not!

    Before I croak I wanna ride The Turbolift Roller Coaster!

    Get it done!

    The Voyager 4D was tops for me.

    The behind-the-scenes tour where you got to go through that ride and they showed you how it all worked was pretty awesome too.

    Plus those Warp Core Breaches were delightful. :beer:

    Nobody has ten thousand close friends I should imagine…

    I think the closest we'll get now is the the official TOS set tour in Ticonderoga, NY. They're building the TNG bridge set too.
