The big day has finally come. The iconic, longstanding fixture on the Las Vegas Strip, Mirage Hotel & Casino, will finally shut down today at 11 a.m. after the planned farewell ceremony, ending an era and writing the final chapter of the megaresort.
The closure, however, marks the start of a massive rebranding and transformation into the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Guitar Hotel Las Vegas.
The transition will also see former Mirage hotel guests and casino patrons benefit from exclusive deals from Treasure Island Hotel & Casino as a means of ensuring continuity for individuals affected by the closure.
$30 Free Slot/Table Games Credit, 35% Off Room Rates
Former Mirage hotel guests will benefit from special 2-for-1 cocktail vouchers at check-in, room discounts of up to 35%, and $50 pool cabana credits available Monday to Thursday.
The offer will be available from April to October. The hotel hosts close to 3,000 guest rooms and also offers premium Cirque du Soleil entertainment via shows like Mystère.
Guests can also enjoy a large selection of dining options, visit the nightlife venues and clubs, or benefit from comprehensive shopping experiences.
Former Mirage casino players will receive $30 to play slots for free or $30 to wager on their favorite table game, as long as they agree to register and join the Treasury Rewards Club.
Even more, the property which is also located on the Las Vegas Strip, will match the comp offer for all Mirage casino customers who present their player’s club offer.
Reservations beyond July 14, Canceled and Refunded
Hotel guests with reservations at The Mirage beyond July 14 will have their bookings automatically canceled and refunded.
Guests who used third-party platforms or online travel agencies to make their bookings are recommended to get in touch with the operators for refunds or rebooking.
Tickets purchased for shows beyond July 14 will go through the same refund/cancellation regime.
The new property, which was originally announced in May 2024, will feature a hotel spread across close to 700 feet shaped like a guitar.
The transformation will be initiated as soon as The Mirage officially ceases operations, bringing significant changes in the local job market by doubling the number of job openings that are currently available at The Mirage and generating 2,500+ jobs in construction.
Hard Rock will offer around $80 million in severance packages to those employees who have decided to stay at the property until the closure time.
The rebranding plans started as soon as Hard Rock International acquired The Mirage from MGM in 2022 for $1.07 billion.
