Star Trek Voyager Special Features - Star Trek: The Experience, Part 1
Star Trek: The Experience was a US$70 million permanent Star Trek-themed attraction at the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel, owned by Cedar Fair Enterprise, containing shops styled after the Deep Space 9 Promenade, a restaurant styled after Quark's, The History of the Future Museum (which was a large collection of props and artifacts), and the Klingon Encounter and Borg Invasion 4D rides. The store was the largest Star Trek-themed store in the world.
The Experience opened with 2,500 on hand for a gala premier on 3 January 1998. It was originally a property owned by Paramount Parks, built by Landmark Entertainment resort/theme park developer and coordinated by the Paramount/Viacom licensing division. It was sold to Cedar Fair, owner of Knotts Berry Farm, with the other Paramount Parks division amid the parent Viacom split of CBS and Paramount Pictures in 2006. The facility played host to parties, receptions, weddings, scheduled events, and conventions. Those who wished to hold their wedding there could have it in Starfleet uniform on the bridge of the USS Enterprise-D, with Star Trek aliens such as Ferengi and Klingons as witnesses. The bridge facility was available for photo opportunities and costumes could be rented for the same.
Star Trek: The Experience "Klingon Encounter" and "Borg 4D" adventures uniquely combined ride simulators, accurately detailed sets, special effects and trained, dedicated costumed live actors to make guests truly feel they were actually in the Trek universe. The site offered tie-in parties, photo opportunities and sidebar events when Creation Entertainment's annual Star Trek convention was held at the Hilton in August.

They seriously need to bring this back. it's essential to life.

@slamminx3 9 лет назад

***** Agreed!

@ArcKnightElite 9 лет назад

👊SlamminUK👊 Yeah, it's not even a joke. We as humans, need something to look forward to in terms of space exploration. This show is also a great example of how humans SHOULD unite as one and work together towards a common positive goal.

@Justin-Hill-1987 4 года назад

@@ArcKnightElite I think they should open a new Star Trek themed attraction at the Universal Theme Parks, American Dream Meadowlands or in part of the former Sears department store at the Mall of America.

"Recognise the strength of the brand" - One of the most pure corporate sentences I've heard in a while.

Star Trek: The Experience, the original "Galaxy's Edge."

I went there many times over the 10 year run. My wife and I went there on our Honeymoon (December 2002). I was dressed as a First Contact era Captain, And sat in the Captains chair on the Enterprise-D, Many people were supprised how close to authentic my costume was, I was given a special sticker denoting I was not in the event staff.

I remember I had the Rings of Betazed onion rings at Quark's Bar, it came with 3 types of dipping sauces... ranch, ketchup and honey mustard. That was back in 1998 or 1999. I still have the Tribble I got at the gift shop. 😊 The 'beaming up' to the bridge part of the ride blew my mind. I'd love to relive that again. I really hope this comes back one day.

@destinyson23 3 года назад

It was a great place wasn’t it? Did you ever do the backstage tour were they explain how they did the beaming up part? Blew my mind too the first time I went on that ride. 👍

@maryham6533 3 года назад

@@destinyson23 I had no idea there was a back stage tour. That's awesome.

@destinyson23 3 года назад

@@maryham6533 yeah there was. It was advertised around a few places but I never did it until one of my subsequent annual trips there. It was cool because it showed you some of the corridors and hidden places where staff rest or discretely got on to the experience floor etc. Anyway, the transporter trick is done by the fact that the walls are pulled up at some absurd numbers of mile per hour by a machine and a split second later the transporter roof slides across. That was the wind you feel as the transporter sound goes off. So when you were standing in the room waiting for the “original” ride, all the walls were basically fake. If memory serves the ride attendant had to stand in a specific corner in order to release the walls or something when the lights were switched off. 👍

@maryham6533 3 года назад

@@destinyson23 That's so cool. I always wondered how the transporter effect was done. I do remember everything going black, feeling the wind and seeing silver dots all around. I really hope someday they build Star Trek Experience again. Thanks for telling me how it worked. 😊

@destinyson23 3 года назад

@@maryham6533 I hope they reopen too. I always naively assumed that the experience would be open forever because of how much Star Trek was loved and how well designed the experience was. Then I found out after the fact that it had shut and I didn’t get to say goodbye to the places. I am kicking myself for not going there more when it was open and buying tons of their merchandise now! 😆

@eric311 10 лет назад

This was so cool what a shame that it's no longer there.

@SinbadNaiver 7 лет назад

dawww... and i wish it sitll was there...if it was the case, i really wonder if they owuld have included star trek online (not sure if they would have included it cuz it isnt cannon), but it would have been aweosme, in fact i myself would have tried to get a startfkeet uniform, and modify it so that it would have a United Federation Starfleet style. (United Federaiton Starfleet is a Star Trek Roleplaying group on Secondlife i'm part of)

@jerryroach7281 3 года назад

Why? They'll keep stupid shows.And they'll trash the good ones.

@SuperMasterTurtle 12 лет назад

I went several times to this before it was closed out. I enjoyed it everytime.

@heroesandcons09 13 лет назад

Reopen Star Trek Experience!!!!

On "Star Trek - The Experience," I can only say this: of all the places I have encountered in my travels, this was the most... human.

i actually had the opportunity to ride this and it was amazing

@GhostbustersFan77 7 лет назад

@Steve.Cutler Год назад

Sadly, I never got to see it. They should bring it back. Scale is the hardest part of recreating sets

@tbrais 15 лет назад

im so glad i got the chance to go to this

@AqeousHumor Год назад

August 2000! I knew what was going on, but it was SO well done, that I teared up during the turbolift malfunction. Fucking great!

@cyclopstb 4 года назад

I was there 5 times in Vegas years ago. I wish it was still there.

@noname-zi1pn 3 года назад

Why does that no longer exist? It's a dream for every fan...

@lordjs9726 4 года назад

I'm sad that I was never able to go to this.

@scarred2112 13 лет назад

@DarthStewart202 Word was that it was going to be relocated to a competing Los Vegas hotel and have the ride updated to feature the 2009 "preboot" Trek movie (apparently in real life the ride was never updated during the 9 years The Experience was running and was very dated-looking and generally behind the times of other interactive rides) but for various reasons it never happened. I think it makes more sense to have Paramount license just the ride for use at the Universal Studios Theme Parks.

Looks a lot better than the new Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser experience. Shame this place is closed now.

@compmanio36 8 лет назад

I remember when this came to the Pacific Science Center one weekend. Not sure if it was the whole thing or just part that they could build on site at the Center, but it was damned cool nonetheless.

@christopherthorkon3997 4 года назад

Well, if they didn't want to continue with this...heck, just send the whole thing to me. I would be happy to live there.

@SmartGirl134579 13 лет назад

@liketheuniverse11 13 лет назад

WWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!! I want to go and see every little thingy!!! Do they have Klingon, Vulcan, another races dictionaries??? It would be great to make a Klingon and a Borg spaceship, too!! And to turn people into Borgs!!! Lots of fun, as usual, about Star Trek: resistance is futile!!!! :D
