Background

On June 24, 2021, Resorts World Las Vegas opened as the newest hotel and casino on the Las Vegas Strip in more than a decade.[2] Upon the hotel's opening, the theatre remained closed, and it was supposed to open with a Celine Dion concert on November 5, 2021.[3] Dion's inaugural performance was ultimately cancelled due to medical issues, and the theatre opened on December 1, 2021 with a Carrie Underwood concert.[4][5] Since opening, the venue has hosted concert residencies by Katy Perry and Luke Bryan, among other limited engagements.[6]

The venue is a joint development between Resorts World Las Vegas and AEG Presents, and it is exclusively operated by Concerts West.[1]

Technical aspects

The 4,700-seat theatre was designed by Scéno Plus, a world-renowned entertainment design firm based out of Montreal. The 13,550-square-foot stage is one of the largest on the Las Vegas Strip, measuring 64-foot deep by 196-foot wide. The proscenium opening measures 123-feet wide by 50-feet tall, and features a motorized system to adjust the opening size. The theatre also features a 576-square-foot stage lift that can sustain up to 86,400 pounds, and almost 5,000 square feet of customizable LED screens.[1] The audio system at the venue is equipped by L-Acoustics, and features an estimated 267 speakers that create a "multi-dimensional surround sound experience."[7] The "intimate" theatre features unobstructed sightlines with the furthest seat being only 150 feet from the stage.[2]
