In 2023, The Venetian Resort Las Vegas announced the $188M renovation of its Convention Center and last week, unveiled the transformation of the first completed floor of the renovation.
The dramatic renovation, which will be completed in stages through 2026, showcases a combination of classic and contemporary architecture as reimagined by Las Vegas design firm Woogmaster Studio, inspired by feedback from the resort’s meetings, incentives, conventions and exhibition customers.
Meetings and events have been the foundation of the resort’s business from its inception more than 25 years ago. Key design elements include a new color palette, luxury lounge spaces for meetings, innovative new technology, and premium meeting essentials including chairs, linens, tableware, and more designed to maintain the resort’s position at the forefront of the meetings industry.
Attendees at the first look of the Convention Center refresh heard first-hand about the level of detail and planning that resulted in the design of the new space, the innovations that meeting planners and attendees will experience, and the positive impacts meetings have on the local community.
“What really brought this project to life was the feedback from our customers,” said Patrick Nichols, President and CEO of The Venetian Resort Las Vegas during the first-look event. “This city is the most competitive meetings market in the world but what’s different about our approach is that we’re thinking about the entire experience and investing $1.5 billion throughout the resort. So, by next year we’ll have new suites, new culinary, and new entertainment. The whole entire package will be the best in the business and combined with our service, there’s no better place to be.”
Elevated Eements to Honor Past & Future
The renovation will include an elevated lounge-style space for executives. A new 10,000-sf speakeasy-style lounge will provide an opportunity to host invitation-only events and is designed with rich woods, marble, velvet, and mirror symbolizing a romantic, layered, and modern take on the Venetian design of 1930s.
“We are a reflection of our customers’ brands, and we take that responsibility very seriously,” said Tony Yousfi, Chief Sales Officer of The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. “We’ve made significant investments to allow our customers’ brands to come to life including enhanced digital signage, a state-of-the-art technology, ability to broadcast through a private channel directly to attendee suites, and more.”
The Convention Center seamlessly integrates traditional architectural with contemporary design elements that result in a harmonious fusion of the resort’s rich heritage and modern sophistication. Additionally, throughout the complex, a robust furnishing and fine art program will be complemented by improved lighting, audio-visual updates and integrated state-of-the-art digital screens and technology.
