Mirage Volcano Returns to the Strip

We all know that the days of the Mirage Volcano attraction are numbered. Still, it will be good when they turn the show back on tomorrow, Friday March 1st. But no one knows for certain how much longer we have to enjoy it. According to the resort, the famous Strip attraction will operate nightly from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. with shows on the hour.
