Star Trek: The Experience was a themed attraction which opened in January 1998 at the Las Vegas Hilton (now Westgate Las Vegas) in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, based on the Star Trek entertainment franchise.

The pavilion underwent a major renovation in 2004 to add the Borg Invasion 4-D attraction allowing guests to encounter the Borg. [1] It closed in September 2008 and was scheduled to reopen in the Neonopolis Mall on May 8, 2009 in time for the premiere of the Star Trek film.

The opening was then pushed back to 2010 and then in 2011, it was announced that Cedar Fair had lost the license. Star Trek: The Experience was designed by Landmark Entertainment. It received an Award for Outstanding Achievement from the Themed Entertainment Association in 1998.
