Bally’s Corporation today announced plans for Bally’s Las Vegas, a new entertainment resort on the Las Vegas Strip at the former site of the Tropicana Las Vegas.
The project will share a 35-acre campus with the new Las Vegas Athletics Major League Baseball ballpark. Expected to commence development in the first half of 2026, the project is being submitted for entitlements to Clark County.
Working in collaboration with JLL, Bally’s Las Vegas will feature:
- two luxury hotel towers totaling 3,000 rooms
- a state-of-the-art entertainment venue with a seating capacity of 2,500
- more than 500,000 square feet of retail, dining and entertainment offerings
- a casino
- a VIP experience with direct access to the ballpark
Marnell Architecture is the architect of record.
“Bally’s Las Vegas represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to redefine the heart of the [Las Vegas] Strip,” said Soo Kim, chairman of the Board of Directors, Bally’s Corporation. “With world-class partners like JLL and Marnell, and with the arrival of Major League Baseball, we are not just building an integrated resort. We are creating a landmark destination that unites sports, entertainment, dining and hospitality on a scale only Las Vegas can deliver.”
JLL will lead retail and dining sourcing efforts for the project, ensuring a mix of global brands and local favorites. Michael Hirschfeld, vice chairman of JLL, is leading the global leasing team within JLL. “Las Vegas is one of the most important markets for food and beverage, entertainment and retail in the US,” said Hirschfeld. “The extended hours of operation in the market yield some of the highest sales per unit in the country.”
Construction has already begun on the new MLB ballpark. Scheduled to open in time for baseball’s opening day in 2028, the ballpark will accommodate 33,000 fans. Notable features include the closest seats to home plate and smallest foul territory of any MLB ballpark, and a see-through dome roof that will over views of the Las Vegas Strip from home plate.
