Vegas Indoor Skydiving to Close After 42 Years of Operation

Las Vegas, NV – After an incredible 42-year journey as America’s first indoor skydiving facility and a pioneer in the sport, Vegas Indoor Skydiving will be closing its doors permanently on January 25, 2025. Keith & Cherlyn Fields, owner and operators since 2005, expressed gratitude to all the guests and staff members who made the attraction a beloved part of Las Vegas history.

“Our motto has always been ‘Share The Love,’ and it has guided everything we do,” Keith Fields said. “From the more than 1 million people we’ve taught to fly to the amazing team members who became family, this has been an extraordinary ride. Thank you all for being part of it.”

Established in 1982 as Flyaway Indoor Skydiving and later rebranded as Vegas Indoor Skydiving, the facility holds the honor of being the first vertical wind tunnel in the United States. Its founders essentially pioneered the concept of indoor skydiving, sparking the growth of a global industry that continues to thrive today.

Over four decades, the facility has welcomed more than 1,000,000 flyers of all ages, from 5-year-old daredevils to 103-year-old adventurers. Celebrities such as Tom Hanks, Steve Aoki, Travis Pastrana, Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears and Howie Mandel have taken flight within its walls. The facility also served as a training ground for skydiving students and a springboard for hundreds of employees who went on to become doctors, lawyers, firemen, amazing parents, business owners, and overall extraordinary members of society.

MEMORABLE MOMENTS & MILESTONES

• Pioneering the Sport: The first commercial wind tunnel to open in the U.S., inspiring a global phenomenon.

• 42 Years of Excellence: The longest-running attraction installed in Las Vegas, confirmed by the Clark County Building Department.

• A Family Atmosphere: Many team members, like General Manager Sammantha Perry, spent decades with the company, creating a tight-knit, family-like environment.

FINAL FLIGHTS AND FAREWELL

As the final chapter closes, Vegas Indoor Skydiving invites the public to experience its iconic wind tunnel one last time before January 25th. Whether it’s your first flight or a return visit, this is your chance to “Share The Love” and create lasting memories.

Cherlyn Fields added, “Although it’s bittersweet to say goodbye, we’re proud of the joy, laughter, and adventure we’ve brought to so many lives. Thank you for helping us make history.”
