Las Vegas attraction to feature one-day Percy Jackson ‘quest stop’

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Calling all demigods! A one-day Percy Jackson quest stop is set to appear at a Las Vegas attraction as fans eagerly await the upcoming season finale.

“Percy Jackson and the Olympians,” a Disney+ show based on Rick Riordan’s Greek mythology novel series of the same name, premiered in December 2023 and took the world by storm.

Throughout the first season of the show, the titular character, played by Walker Scobell, is joined by Annabeth Chase (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Grover Underwood (Aryan Simhadri) on a quest to find and return Zeus’ master bolt before a war breaks out in Olympus.

Their quest takes them to many iconic sights and cities across America, including Las Vegas.

The sixth episode of the show found Percy, Annabeth, and Grover visiting Las Vegas, with the iconic MGM Grand shown in the background as the trio unleashed a truckload of wild animals on unsuspecting tourists on their way to visit the fictional Lotus Hotel and Casino.

On Monday, the official Instagram account for the Disney+ series announced there would be one-day only “quest” stops in cities and locations where episodes of the wildly popular show have been set.

Fans of the show in New York City flocked to the Empire State Building on Wednesday, and on Friday, St. Louis fans arrived at the Gateway Arch for photo opportunities and t-shirt giveaways.

The Las Vegas-based quest stop will be held at noon on Saturday, Jan. 27 outside of AREA15 at 3215 South Rancho Drive. According to a post on the series’ Instagram page, the quest stop will include a Percy Jackson-themed photo op and first-come, first-serve Camp Half-Blood T-shirt giveaways while supplies last.

“Fans will line up for can’t-miss surprise photo op,” a Disney official said. “The trio’s quest in the series takes them to the Lotus Casino in Vegas, and fans are speculating it’ll follow that theme.”
