The High Roller at The Linq in Las Vegas is 550 feet high and has 28 cabins that hold 40 people each. That makes for a whopping 1,120 people that can fit on this obersevation wheel at once!
There are 112 cables and 7.2 million pounds of steel on the wheel. One rotation takes about half an hour. There are 2,000 LED lights that light up in multiple colors for “The Lights at The Linq” show.
The High Roller is currently the tallest observation wheel in the world until the Ain Dubai ferris wheel opens later this year at 840 feet. The Ain Dubai was supposed to open in 2020 but construction was delayed by the pandemic.
