Las Vegas is getting a guitar-shaped hotel like Florida

In 1989, casino mogul Steve Wynn revolutionized the resort industry with The Mirage, a $630 million tropical-themed hotel that dwarfed all others in size and extravagance. With bronze mermaids, piña colada-scented air, and a massive shark tank, it was a destination unlike any other in Las Vegas.



Now, after 35 years, The Mirage is set to close its doors today, Wednesday, July 17th. 


The Mirage's closure marks the end of an era in Las Vegas history. The resort ushered in a decade of rapid growth, with new hotels like Excalibur, Luxor, and Bellagio transforming the city into one of the fastest-growing in America.


The new resort, operated by Hard Rock International and Seminole Gaming, is set to open in 2027. It will feature 600 additional rooms and a design inspired by the Seminole Tribe's iconic Hard Rock brand.
