Best Hotels for SuperZoo Las Vegas 2026 — Pet Industry Trade Show Guide

SuperZoo is North America’s largest pet industry trade show, held every summer at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas. With over 20,000 pet industry professionals and 1,200+ exhibitors showcasing the latest in pet food, accessories, grooming, and supplies, SuperZoo is the essential annual gathering for pet retailers, groomers, distributors, and manufacturers.

Unlike most major Las Vegas trade shows which take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), SuperZoo is held at Mandalay Bay on the south end of the Strip. This means different hotel dynamics — proximity to Mandalay Bay matters more than proximity to the LVCC. This guide covers the best hotels for SuperZoo 2026 attendees.

SuperZoo 2026 — Key Dates

• Dates: July 22–24, 2026
• Venue: Mandalay Bay Convention Center, Las Vegas
• Attendees: 20,000+ pet industry professionals
• Exhibitors: 1,200+ companies

⚠️ Book 3–4 months in advance. July is peak summer season in Las Vegas. Mandalay Bay and immediately adjacent hotels fill up quickly during SuperZoo week.

Best Hotels for SuperZoo Las Vegas 2026

1. Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino — Best for Convenience

Staying at Mandalay Bay itself means you’re on-site — no commute, no rideshare, no wasted time. Walk directly from your room to the SuperZoo show floor in minutes. For pet industry professionals attending multi-day events, this location advantage pays for itself quickly in time and transportation savings. The resort’s large pool complex and beach area are a welcome bonus in July’s summer heat.

• ⭐ Distance to SuperZoo: On-site — direct access
• 💰 Typical July rates: $180–$350/night
• ✅ Wave pool | Multiple restaurants | Spa | Direct show access

2. Delano Las Vegas — Best Boutique Option

The Delano Las Vegas is connected directly to Mandalay Bay — offering all-suite rooms with a more intimate, adults-only atmosphere. Suite-only rooms with full living areas make it ideal for buyers who want space to review samples and notes at the end of each show day. Direct internal walkway access to Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

4. Luxor Hotel & Casino — Best Budget Pick

Directly adjacent to Mandalay Bay via an indoor walkway, the Luxor is the most affordable option with direct access to SuperZoo’s venue. The indoor connection means you never have to step outside in July’s 105°F heat. Rooms are more basic but clean and comfortable — the right choice for buyers and sales reps managing tight trade show budgets.

• ⭐ Distance to SuperZoo: Indoor walkway to Mandalay Bay — 10 minutes
• 💰 Typical July rates: $90–$160/night
• ✅ Indoor connection | Budget-friendly | Casino | Pool

5. Vacation Rentals via VRBO — Best for Pet Industry Teams

For teams of 3 or more from the same company — sales teams, buying groups, distributor reps — a full apartment rental in the south Strip area is often the most cost-effective option. You get a full kitchen (critical for managing meal budgets during a 3-day show), multiple bedrooms, and space to spread out samples. A 10–15 minute rideshare to Mandalay Bay.

SuperZoo Las Vegas — What to Know

July Weather: Plan for Extreme Heat

July in Las Vegas means temperatures regularly exceeding 105°F (40°C). If your hotel has an outdoor-only connection to Mandalay Bay, plan rideshares rather than walking. Hotels with indoor connections (Luxor via walkway, Delano via internal corridor) become significantly more valuable during SuperZoo week. Stay hydrated — the convention center is air-conditioned but exterior walks are brutal.

Who Attends SuperZoo

SuperZoo attracts independent pet store owners, chain buyers, veterinary professionals, groomers, distributors, and private label manufacturers. Registration is trade-only — a current business license or proof of pet industry activity is required. The show includes a separate grooming competition (GroomExpo West) with its own registration.

Getting Around During SuperZoo

Unlike the LVCC, Mandalay Bay does not have access to the Vegas Loop tunnel system. For getting around the south Strip area: Uber and Lyft are the most practical option, and the Las Vegas Monorail has a station at MGM Grand — a 15-minute walk or short rideshare from Mandalay Bay. The indoor walkway connecting Luxor, Excalibur, and Mandalay Bay is your best friend in July heat.

Book Your SuperZoo 2026 Hotel

Mandalay Bay and the Delano fill up 3–4 months before SuperZoo. The Luxor stays available longer but still sees price increases near show week. Book early for best rates:

• 🏨 Booking.com — Best for Mandalay Bay, Delano, Luxor
