After reopening three of its Las Vegas properties last week, MGM Grand Las Vegas, New York-New York and the Bellagio, MGM Resorts on Tuesday announced that more will reopen over the next five weeks.
Luxor will reopen on June 25 at 10 am; ARIA will open on July 1 at 10 am; and Mandalay Bay, along with Four Seasons Las Vegas, will reopen also on July 1 at 11 am. The Shoppes at Mandalay Bay will reopen before its hotel and casino, on June 25 at 10am.
“It was exciting and emotional to see the energy in Las Vegas last week as we welcomed back our employees and reopened our doors to guests for the first time in months,” said Bill Hornbuckle, MGM Resorts’ acting CEO and president.
“Our guests are having a great time and are thrilled to be back in the city they love. We are eager to get more of our employees back to work and enhance the Las Vegas experience with additional resorts.”
All of MGM’s properties, including the ones that have already reopened, will continue to operate with MGM’s new health and safety plan, which it unveiled on its website earlier this month.
The plan calls for a new set of health protocols for both its employees and its guests including: temperature checks and health screenings for employees and self-screening for guests; mandatory masks and personal protective equipment required for employees and recommended for guests; six-foot of physical distancing; new handwashing and sanitization stations throughout properties; air quality and HVAC checks; new incident response protocols; and digital innovations.
