Resorts World features a 117,000-square-foot casino at the heart of the resort with a 17,000-square-foot Entertainment Zone for the race and sports book, live entertainment, and high-limit gaming areas. Boyd stopped construction on Echelon in 2008 during the economic downturn, and sold the land and partially constructed resort in 2013 to Genting. Genting Group bought the site of the former Stardust for $350 million from Boyd Gaming, which demolished the resort in 2007 to develop Echelon Place.
Starting at 9 p.m., Resorts World will host a celebratory, public pre-party for the first 2,000 people waiting to enter the resort.Īnd there’s a lot to explore at this resort sitting on 88 acres at the north end of the Las Vegas Strip, the first casino built from the ground up on Las Vegas Boulevard since December 2010, when the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas opened. on June 24, Resorts World lets the public in to see the $4.3 billion resort filled with 40 food and beverage options. Construction workers put finishing touches on a water fountain here, a fixture there. Excitement practically energizes the air at Resorts World just before it opens to the public.
