5 Star Reviews for BattleBots Destruct-A-Thon – Voted Best New Show in Las Vegas
"I LOVED IT.
There is nothing like BattleBots live in Las Vegas…This experience is something that I will cherish."
– Perez Hilton
“BattleBots: Destruct-A-Thon is just crushing it in Las Vegas…BattleBots is for all ages… an explosive mix of destruction derby and Las Vegas spectacle… The unique, adrenaline-fueled experience is performing at BattleBots Arena at Caesars Entertainment Studios behind Horseshoe Las Vegas on Koval Lane"
-- Las Vegas Review-Journal
“The fighting is adrenalizing, with crunching impacts and sparks flying from powerful grinding wheels driving live audiences into frenzies."
– Las Vegas Magazine
"Witness five epic battles between robots as they crush and dominate each with saw blades and fiery flames. Whether you're new to Las Vegas or simply enjoy watching a good fight, bring a friend and experience next level excitement at BattleBots DESTRUCT-A-THON"
– greg.lasvegas
"A Las Vegas show that I would have begged my parents to take me to… who are we kidding I had more fun as an adult"
-- - Vegas Feedz
"This has been my favorite experience in Las Vegas. The people at the event center were so nice and welcoming. Jackpot and Malice drivers were present to talk to. The show was fun to watch. We always watch it on TV, so we were so excited to see it in person. If you are a fan then this is a must do. You will love it and enjoy seeing the action in real life. It is so awesome to see how big the bots really are."
– Jana H.
"SO MUCH FUN!
This was our 3rd time coming as a family. Each time it gets better and better! So fun for the kids to see the arena hazards and bots live! Some great fights with some unexpected surprises. We really had a blast! Just know when you come that it’s not the Discovery filming for the regular tournament. It is a live show with real unscripted fights and we loved it!."
– NYMom
"tl;dr Destruct-a-thon was the best thing we did in Vegas
… turned out to be the most wholesome, genuine, worth-the-money activity that we did while we were in Vegas. I highly recommend. Nothing better than nerds having fun. Few things you can do in a city like Vegas are equally as engaging and exciting to both 10 year olds and to 30 year olds."
– Nicholas
"Loved everything. I will be back. What a great fun environment that is positive for families, teens, couples, anyone who wants to have a great time in Las Vegas that isn’t drinking and gambling. Nice to see kids so engaged in science! Loved the merch selection."
– Happy fan
"We had a wonderful time at Destruct-A-Thon! Lots of great fights, high energy announcers, enthusiastic and knowledgeable Bot teams and well organized event! We bought general admission seats but still had an excellent view of the arena. Good merchandise and snacks were available, along with photo-ops with the Bot Teams! If you like BattleBots, you'll have an awesome time."
– Tara
"You get to watch 5 battles of pure robot carnage and mayhem…My kids absolutely loved it"
– Vegasstarfish
"Wonderful experience fun for the whole family. Was a very exciting and fun filled event. I hope it continues to grow and develop as the next generation gain interest in robotics."
– C.B.
"The show is full of energy, interactive and the boys had the best time. There's not a bad seat!"
– Vegas Family Guide
"It was crazy! There was fire and all sorts of chaos going on. I honestly didn't know what to expect when I came here, but If you're looking for something to do in Vegas for all ages this is the spot."
– Terrakimberlyscott

That bot is liiiit! But the cameraman missed the best part!
👍
Amazing camera work
Hi I love BattleBots and I am in the UK, I am currently watching the 2020 season, does anyone know where I can watch the other seasons too? Thank you 😃
Beetleweights flying at your face are terrifying, heavyweights must be even scarier! How about I throw a desk at you and we'll see if you stay put or not!
Well I guess it's back to the drawing board for Rick Russ
Ferhat Trd
The robot is on fire 😮😮🔥🔥
Camera man needs to focus on his job more.
Didn’t even see anything 🤣 well done camera person
Perfect example of why you don’t pump so much power into a robot.
Sack the camera man 🙄
Hey everyone, just wanted to introduce myself! I'm new here." 👋
1 hit delete. 😎
Overkill still taking down horizontal spinners with ease
I thought they have to be inside of the square to start and it moved before the green light. Guess the other bot taught it a lesson.
What they imagined: their large horizontal spinning weapon tearing bots apart. What actually happened: their bot sent flying across the box and catching fire as soon as it touched a wedge.
Out of the arena and on fire!
Why did the cameraman get scared
It’s still a spinner killer
Please be more mindful about users with photosensitive epilepsy. The first second or two has the potential to trigger seizures and could've easily been edited out of the whole video. Similar thing with the strobe effects in the Whiplash/Fusion Champions II promo you posted a while back.
great job with the camera asshole

Love this show! Been. Watching up through all the seasons!
So much fun! I wish we lived there!
What’s the minimum age for watching in person? My boys would LOVE to come watch!
See if Apex can be out in one piece.
We need some TV!!!
We need some TV!!!
I thought that was a weight bench
When’s gonna be the first episode on TV?
Has anyone managed to get some Travis T. footage from any other events? I'd love to see how it works.
Any news on a new season? Tired of all the re-runs...Bring back Tombstone! Bite Force! Ziggo....the real champs.
Robots activate!!!
Hey everyone, just wanted to introduce myself! I'm new here." 👋
When will tickets for Aug be available? Thank you!
Does anyone want our 4 BattleNots tickets feb 17th ? . it’s at 3pm BattleBots Arena Behind Horseshoe Las Vegas in Las Vegas, NV Luke is currently sick and I’m thinking Emmy is next 😭 so we’re not gunna be able to go.
WHEN CAN I WATCH THIS ON TV, PLEASE??
Wait, Apex? The same Apex that exploded to bits on Robot Wars? I guess the exclusivity contracts must have run out and their bots can compete on BattleBots now.
Thinking of buying tickets for a 230 pm show. How long do they go for? When would the show finish and everyone leave??

BotFans — We just received heartbreaking news that Nola Garcia has passed away. Nola was the Executive Director of BattleBotsIQ (BotsIQ). Nola ran the program with unbound passion and inspired so many kids to get into robot combat sports. There would be no Witch Doctor, Icewave, Biteforce, Rotator, HyperShock, and many more without her passion for STEM education and robot fighting. We love you Nola and our hearts go out to your family 💔 ... See MoreSee Less

What a rough way to start 2024. Nola was such a massive part of this crazy fun sport. All the way from competing in the early 2000's to everything she has done behind the scenes. Big loss.
Nola was the first EO I came to in America. She was such a wonderful person who made everything better. She did such great work the community has lost such an incredible person.
Nola is one of the 4-5 most important people in the Robot Combat world.... Gone much too soon. Thank you Nola <3 Wish I could have met you to say thank you for what you've brought this world
So sad… what a sweetheart. 😢🙏🏻
Rest in peace...
Terrible news. She was instrumental in keeping the show and sport alive when it was off our screens. Nola, thank you for all that you did while you were here with us and hopefully, you're still fighting bots wherever you are now. RIP
I remember chatting with her throughout the years at various events. She did amazing things with students and builders, empowering them to reach their goals. Thank you Nola! She will be missed. My heartfelt condolences to all her family.
Very sorry to see this. She was great.
Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this. Nola was so inspirational and always had such a positive attitude. She was the heart of soul of robotics in south florida and I was always so amazed with what she kept going with BotsIQ and Starbot. This is a huge loss
So sad to hear this. Prayers go out to her family. 💔 We also loss Thomas (TJ) Hodo a couple days ago too. He was a BattleBots veteran also. Pray for his family. 🙏🏻💔🙏🏻
Huge loss for the BattleBots community - Nola was a wonderful mentor. Rest in peace 💜
I truly don’t have the words. She changed my life immeasurably and was one of a kind. The USATL BotsIq event was the first event ever for me. I volunteered multiple summers for her and Bill, and I visited her whenever I could. I am so sorry. I will miss her dearly. My condolences to her family.
A wonderful person... she made such contributions to the sport.
This makes me so very sad. I'm really going to miss her big hugs and kind smile. ❤️ Such a wonderful person.💔
R.I.P Nola, condolences to her family and everyone who knew and loved her.
I'm so sorry to hear this. She made such a huge difference in the lives of so many.
I’m so sorry to hear this. I always respected her and enjoyed spending time with her.
RIP Nola, Buddy Lee was ahead of its time and one of the most memorable robots to grace BB's early television run.
There’s a new angel in heaven!
NO…… we love Nola endlessly. So much to say about her, but for now, our most sincere condolences to her family. 💔
Nola was such a an amazing person. Even before BotsIQ came to be she helped with the vision of using robotics and robot combat as an educational tool. I feel privileged to have been involved with Nola and many others in helping during the early days of BotsIQ.
My condolences to Billy, Mike and Will. So many Carrollton girls were enriched by Nola's example.
We owe so much to Nola… she will be dearly missed.
My condolences
We need to bring this sport even further in the future ! ... The commitment and effort by the founders should always be celebrated and recognized, as we all support these amazing people ... ❣️

Outstanding
Wishing him well.
Marissa Matthews if they come this way, let’s meet up!
Can't wait for the new season to come on.
one does wish we could get this to watch in the UK I do love to see Capt Shredderator
How long before Streaming is the only way to see this great show as well.
I hope the events are televised...!!!!
We need Battlebots on TV!
👍🏻😊
Put more BB on tv! We didn’t get hardly anything this season!
Love this on ITV4 in UK but only up to 2021 season so final tomorrow so with SOW and Hydra out in QF, go Death Roll or Witch Doctor for the “Giant Nut”!👍
Anyone happen to know when the new season airs?
When does the new season start you're killing me making me wait
Geramie Gav
It’s worth the trip to Vegas to see the destruction live. We saw bots fly out of the arena, they hit the ceiling, and there was even FIRE. 🔥 Witchdoctor rules
April 2024 New BattleBots
Swamp thing about shred it.
It’s a Travis T that we can’t watch it on tv
Cannot wait for the season to come on, stupid F1
….I mean this won’t demonstrate hellfires weapon, it’ll just be removing the wheels and then it wins
What happened to battlebots on discovery channel?
When is battlebots officially back please lemme know so I know when Thursdays won't suck anymore 😂
I heard a rumor that BB was not going to be picked up by Discovery anymore? Pay for view is the future of BB.
Riptide vs. Copperhead was FIXED!!!!!! Not only was Riptide invincible the entire season and then got its weapon obliterated in the finals, but what are the odds that the lead driver - out of everyone on else on the team - contracted COVID? I thought that BattleBots was the last bastion of clean family entertainment - I was wrong. Ethan's dad's anti-vaxxer stance was conveniently and ironically mocked in the process via this seemingly ultimate coincidence (was Ethan infected with the virus purposely?). Big Pharma must've been happy. Plus, one wonders if there wasn't some illegal gambling going on as well. The whole thing was way too shady and coincidental.

What have I missed 😬 where is Chris and Kenny on commentary 🤔
To the fans, to the bot builders, and the crew of BattleBots. Merry Christmas to all and to all a goodnight, and have a Happy New Year!
🤖🎅🏻🎄
Awesome!!
Merry Christmas
Love battlebots
Will and HyperShock handing out Christmas cheer, battlebot style! Merry Christmas 🙂
Quando será liberado na tv para o Discovery no Brasil?
Was this from August? I think I was at this one because I remember the wheel falling off. So cool!
Merry Christmas 🎁
The live show should be simulcast on TV. This is so incredibly apparent.
James Zeruth
Suggestion for next season: A look into how the committee determines who is on the bubble for relegation, and the performance they expect the teams to do in order to stave it off. ...I'm also curious as well, if the number of bots in exhibition matches eventually turns into a minor/developmental league consisting of a mix of rookies trying to prove themselves, as well as long established teams that fell to relegation and are trying to bounce back.
Magnitude took a beating and just kept coming back for more. Hope they're able to find their way into WC8 next season
If hypershock keeps its wheels it wins ⚙️
Definitely wish they showed some of the Live Shows on Discovery Plus
That wasn't a fight. It was slaughter.
Leslie J Given-Wielogorski
”What a fight”? It was like a first hit knockout in boxing.
Merry Christmas from my house to yours
When will the new TV taping be done?
Is that Bill Dwyer? So cool
When does the regular season starts on the discovery Channel?..
Gotta Admit the Durability of the hits Hypershock gave Magnitude was quite impressive... Magnitude should be in the Next World Championship.
Cool. Hypershock was as strong as ever, but Magnitude was also holding it's own

If there are dates through 2024, does that mean filming for WC8 won't happen until after then?

My two year old is OBSESSED with battlebots! He finds toys that are similar to the bots and makes them fight! He even took a spiral notebook to mimic the corkscrew edge!

Way to go.

I noticed you can buy action shots from session but is there a way to purchase the footage filmed during these sessions? Would be great to see the result of the film crew and action that day especially between Bronco and Chopper!
Can’t wait

Where and how can I watch this? Not everybody can come to Vegas you know...

Will it be at the discovery channel?
Can't wait to see this.
Omni wheels on a Horizontal spinner. Hmm...
Will this be recorded and put onto YouTube to watch?
Waiting for the video. .....
Are there any new episodes on discovery channel ?
Rusty should have a come back returned to the arena!🤣
Slammo gets a Slammo-hawk.
Let’s hope the spirit of Track-tion doesn’t come back to haunt Apex.
Dang, Slammo may actually have a chance!
It's double the Danby! :v
The arena is insured right
As in Apex? THE Apex? Well , there's a bit I never thought I'd see again
If apex hits as hard/harder as/than it originally did…that’s going to be scary
Just for old times sake, somebody please get Trey Roski or someone else to put a claymore in the battlebox floor and set it off when Apex drives over it 😏😁🤣🤣
Hope apex doesn't do a... One of those like in robot wars that one time
TV
Does apex have Omni wheels?
Somebody make sure the box is reinforced NOW!
Seriously, this is painful
USA friends Google apex vs tracktion and get exited/scared 😂
when is the new season starting anyone know?
Slammo is in an emo phase
