This hotel started its construction early this year and is said to open by late 2018.

The California Hotel and Casino

After 40 years in the business, The California, one of longest-running hotels in Downtown Las Vegas, is set to get a major overhaul this year in terms of public space designs, restaurants, and of course, their rooms. Boyd Gaming Corporation spearheads this multi-million dollar renovation. Boyd Gaming is a leader in the gaming industry much like Microgaming casinos.

Park MGM

Montecarlo will undergo a major two-year $450-million transformation before it gets its new name Park MGM.

News reports confirmed that Justin Timberlake will be the first artist to play in its 5,300-seater theater that cost $100 million this year. Other artists will soon follow including Lady Gaga.

ATTRACTIONS

Las Vegas Arena

Having two arenas is nearly not enough. A 20,000-seater arena, called Las Vegas Arena, had its grand opening last April 6 with artists like Wayne Newton and The Killers performing on stage. This $375 million project can be found behind New York, New York and Monte Carlo resorts and is said to be home to more than 100 events yearly that includes boxing, hockey, basketball, UFC, awards shows, and other major events.

Bigger Convention Center

The Riviera Hotel, one of the longest running hotels in Las Vegas, is set to be demolished to be a bigger site for the Convention Center. This way, the Convention Center can extend to Las Vegas Boulevard.

Intrigue

Wynn’s nightclub Tryst (that has been in operation for 10 years) is to be replaced by a new one called Intrigue with its major renovation in terms of new lights, sound, and design upgrades. The waterfall that everyone loves will stay. This new 14,000-square-foot club can house over 1,000 people who love to spend their night drinking, dancing, and partying with their friends and other club-goers.  Intrigue will mostly play contemporary party music across many genres. A 1,200-square-foot private club, one that is only for those who got invites, inside Intrigue will be a place where phones are not allowed to allow guests the ultimate party experience in privacy.

Transformers / Avengers

The whole family is sure to have fun this year as Treasure Island now opens an attraction site based on Hasbro’s Transformers and Marvel’s The Avengers located on the second and third floors of its new retail site along the Las Vegas Strip. This attraction site offers interactive experiences similar to theme parks wherein you will encounter stories and characters found in Transformers and The Avengers.

Budweiser Beer Park

Budweiser Beer Park will be on the deck of Hexx in Paris Las Vegas. Developers of this new place imagine picnic tables, outdoor grilling, and a place where you choose from over 100 beers.

Beer Park can be a place good for hanging out with friends, watching a game, or just getting a good view of the Bellagio fountains and the Vegas Strip.
