Mat Franco brings Las Vegas magic to Fantasy Claw Arcade at Fashion Show Mall
Fantasy Claw Arcade is bringing a new prize experience to our Las Vegas claw machine arcade at Fashion Show Mall. Guests can now win Mat Franco merchandise, show tickets, and VIP experiences as part of a new collaboration with the longtime Strip headliner.
The partnership brings together two entertainment concepts built around creating memorable guest experiences, while giving visitors another way to connect with one of Las Vegas’s most established performers.

Bringing Mat Franco to the Claw
Franco is celebrating his 11th year starring in Mat Franco – Magic Reinvented Nightly at The LINQ Hotel. After becoming the first magician to win America’s Got Talent in 2014, he built a long-running Las Vegas residency that has now surpassed 3,000 performances, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Earlier this year, Franco extended his headlining agreement with Caesars Entertainment through 2030. He is also preparing to reach a broader audience, with his first Netflix special scheduled to be filmed at the Mat Franco Theater at The LINQ this October.
The collaboration and Franco’s upcoming Netflix special have also drawn local media attention, including coverage from KLAS 8 News Now and Hoodline.
The upcoming special comes as Franco continues expanding his reach beyond the Strip, while our collaboration gives guests another way to experience his brand here in Las Vegas.
At Fantasy Claw Arcade inside Fashion Show Mall, guests can now find Franco-branded merchandise, tickets to Mat Franco – Magic Reinvented Nightly, and VIP experience packages among the prizes available inside select claw machines.
It is a natural fit for the Fantasy Claw Arcade experience. The excitement of the claw remains the same, but the potential prize can now extend beyond the arcade and into another memorable Las Vegas experience.
Why the Collaboration Fits
At Fantasy Claw Arcade, we are focused on taking a familiar game and turning it into a more immersive entertainment experience through distinctive environments, compelling prizes, and high-traffic locations.
The Mat Franco partnership expands that idea.
By putting Las Vegas show tickets, VIP experiences, and branded merchandise inside our claw machines, we are creating a direct connection between the arcade experience and the wider Las Vegas entertainment landscape.
It also shows how our format can support entertainment collaborations in a way that feels interactive rather than purely promotional. Guests are not simply seeing an advertisement. They are engaging with the partnership through the game itself.
More Than a Traditional Claw Machine Prize
For our guests, the appeal is simple: a visit to Fantasy Claw Arcade at Fashion Show Mall can now lead to more than a traditional arcade prize. Mat Franco merchandise, show tickets, and VIP experiences add another layer of surprise to our machines and reinforce a central theme of the Fantasy Claw Arcade experience: the prize should feel worth playing for.
For us, the collaboration also points to a broader opportunity. As Fantasy Claw Arcade grows, our claw machines can serve as a flexible platform for prizes, partnerships, and experiences tailored to each market and location.
In Las Vegas, that means connecting our arcade experience with the entertainment that helps define the destination.
Our collaboration with Mat Franco is one example of how that model can evolve.
Guests can visit Fantasy Claw Arcade at Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas to play for Mat Franco merchandise, show tickets, and VIP experiences, with Franco’s first Netflix special set to be filmed at The LINQ this October.
