The Venetian Resort Las Vegas is marking its 25th anniversary with the unveiling of the largest and most expensive renovation in its history.

A pioneer in the convention-hotel concept, the resort’s $1.5 billion USD reinvestment project touches everything from a rebrand of The Venetian’s iconic lion logo to a redesign of the its suites, which remain the largest standard room on The Las Vegas Strip.

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. Beyond the accommodations, the redevelopment includes 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 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 reinvestment project also includes:

• a commitment to invest $188 million dollars in the renovation of the resort’s Convention Center, including luxury lounge spaces for meetings and innovative new technology;
• Food Rescue Alliance, a first-of-its-kind program taking surplus fresh food from catered events to be repackaged and provided to individuals in the Las Vegas Valley suffering from food insecurity;
• the recent launches of first-to-market entertainment and food venues – HaSalon, Voltaire Belle de Nuit, and Sphere at the Venetian – with more to come;
• and new gaming offerings including The Palazzo High Limit Lounge and a brand-new poker room debuting this summer.

“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 through extraordinary innovation is exciting for us all.”
