The Venetian Resort Las Vegas unveils hotel renovation to celebrate its 25th anniversary

The Venetian Resort Las Vegas has unveiled a$1.5 billion reinvestment project coinciding with its 25th birthday.

Available for stays beginning in September 2024, all 4,000 suites in The Venetian towers, including signature suites, will be completely updated. The new suites are inspired by the traditional ornate costumes of the Venetian Carnival, "infusing energy, spirit, and warmth in a contemporary, fresh design," the company added.

Beyond the accommodations, the redevelopment delivers "first-class" offerings to Las Vegas including the addition of new chef-led culinary concepts, to be announced later this year.

"The Venetian Resort's innovative spirit has had a massive impact on Las Vegas over the last 25 years and paved the way for our visionary $1.5 billion reinvestment today," said Patrick Nichols, president and chief executive officer of The Venetian Resort Las Vegas.

"This redevelopment marks more than just a surface-level renovation, it signifies a deep understanding of our guests and a profound reimagining of an iconic resort unlike any other in history. The beauty of this project lies within the balance of the beloved familiar and the never-before-seen."

The redevelopment presents new gaming offerings including The Palazzo High Limit Lounge, a fully redesigned sportsbook complete with a multi-year naming rights partnership with Yahoo, the Yahoo Sportsbook powered by William Hill, and a brand-new poker room that will debut this summer.

Earlier this year, the resort unveiled Venetian Rewards, an all-new loyalty program that encompasses both gaming and non-gaming expenditures, enhances earning transparency for slots, provides benefits, and unlocks more ways to earn Rewards Points off the casino floor.

As part of the redevelopment, The Venetian Resort made a commitment to invest $188 million dollars in the renovation of the resort's Convention Center. Key design elements will include an "elegant" new color palette which presents an upscale departure from the traditional convention spaces, luxury lounge spaces for meetings, and new technology. The redesign will begin this summer.

Earlier this year, The Venetian Resort announced the Food Rescue Alliance, a program taking surplus fresh food from catered events to be repackaged and provided to individuals in the Las Vegas Valley suffering from food insecurity.

This partnership between The Venetian Resort and The Just One Project received praise from the White House during a press briefing in February for The White House Challenge to End Hunger and Build Healthy Communities by 2030.

The Food Rescue Alliance was one of only three initiatives Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff recognized during the press conference. This new partnership allows for a 100 percent increase in fresh meals donated to the community annually.

"It's astounding to see the significant growth and development The Venetian Resort has made in the two years since we initiated this partnership," said Daniel Cohen, partner at Apollo Global Management.

"We wholeheartedly trusted in the vision and leadership of The Venetian Resort team and our shared mission to elevate the overall guest experience, but to see the resources we provided come to life in through extraordinary innovation is exciting for us all."
