Here’s a preview of Fontainebleau. The casino floor looks great, and I can’t wait to check it out. Jonathan Halkyard, MGM Resorts CFO, recently spoke at the Leveraged Finance Conference. He mostly discussed how the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend went from one of the slowest of the year to the “highest-grossing weekend in hotel revenue in the history of the company.”
MGM Resorts released earnings last week. I listen to the (casino earnings) calls because they usually offer some context to the financials in the reports.
I couldn’t make it to Zorkfest this year, but by all accounts, it sounds like the conference was a success. If you’re a super early planner, you can plan for Zorkfest 2024 to take place from Nov. 1- Nov. 3.
Since we skipped Vegas News last week, there’s a ton of information to get to from the past few weeks. Let’s get right to it.
Here’s a dramatic statement that may or may not be true. The current disruptions are a sign of things to come in Las Vegas. Are You Cancelling Or Rescheduling Trips To Las Vegas?
This is an extended Labor Day Weekend edition of Vegas News. Getting ready for lots of info from the past couple of weeks. It’s a good thing many of you have a long weekend.
We’re changing Vegas News a little. Instead of posting weekly, we’re going to share the Vegas News every other week. This will make the news rundowns more concise with less fluff and easier to navigate. This will also give us a chance to dive deeper into specific newsy topics.
I like to change the format of Vegas News every now and again. This week will be all Quick Hits-style with a bunch of embedded tweets with pictures for visual interest. Also, pay close attention to the Fontainebleau Room Preview, which is making this new casino resort seem “more real.”
