Demolition Derby returns to CORE Arena at the Plaza Hotel & Casino Action-packed, family-friendly four-day event starts April 7

“We are excited to have the demolition derby back at the Plaza,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Our CORE Arena is the perfect location for the exciting, action-filled event that is fun for all ages. Stirrin’ Dirt Raing has sold out each of its demotion derbies at the Plaza in the past, so we expect a packed audience next month.”

Stirrin’ Dirt Racing is a production company created by Johnny Gullio and Jim ‘Gumby” Simko in 1999 to raise the level of the sport of demolition derby by increasing the payouts to the drivers. Over the years, Stirrin’ Dirt Racing has expanded into producing Monster Truck events and music concerts, providing stunt driving and vehicles to movies, music videos, photo shoots, and television shows, such as Top Gear, Dr.Who, and Johnny Christ. It has also raised more than $1 million for charity through its project and work with the American Dream Foundation.

Located in the heart of downtown Las Vegas, the Plaza Hotel & Casino combines a vintage Rat Pack attitude with modern styling and personal customer service for the ultimate Vegas experience. First opened in 1971 and built on the site of the original Las Vegas railroad depot at 1 Main Street, the Plaza has transformed its historic location into a one-of-a-kind destination for cocktails, gaming, entertainment, and dining. Its glittering porte-cochere is home to the outdoor Carousel Bar that offers handmade cocktails inside of a life-sized, animated Vegas-themed carousel setting. The Main Street entrance is also home to Pinkbox Doughnuts and downtown’s first smoke-free, social media-friendly gaming space created in partnership with social media influencer Brian Christopher. The Plaza has nearly 1,000 modern rooms and suites, a classic Vegas showroom, downtown’s only bingo hall, live music at the Sand Dollar Downtown, and 30,000 sq ft. of refurbished ballroom and meeting space. The Plaza brought the rodeo back to downtown with its CORE Arena, downtown’s only outdoor equestrian and multipurpose facility. Guests enjoy a variety of dining options led by the renowned Oscar’s Steakhouse in the hotel’s iconic glass dome and on a rooftop patio overlooking the Fremont Street Experience. A lounge-style sports book has hundreds of slot machines, and nearly two dozen table games comprise an 80,000-square-foot casino floor.
