Looks like Las Vegas Strip may be planning to open for Memorial Day Weekend?
All nonessential businesses in Nevada were temporarily closed on March 17 by Governor Steve Sisolak because of COVID-19. Sisolak’s order was extended through April 30.
MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) company spokesman says they have canceled room reservations at its Las Vegas properties through May 21.
According to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing, whenever the Las Vegas Strip reopens, MGM officials expect to open their properties incrementally. MGM's filing indicated the company’s 10 casinos on the Las Vegas Strip will be opened in phases. However With reservations for Friday May 22nd and the Memorial Day weekend not being included in the cancellations notice, this may indicate that the first phase will be a soft re-opening for the holiday weekend for those who already have reservations.
Visiting the MGMResorts.com webpage, the first available date for booking is June 1st. This may indicate a second phase in re-opening of the Las Vegas Strip for new reservations.
Because of the economic fallout from the Coronavirus pandemic, MGM's stock took a downturn around February 20th and bottomed around March 18th, dropping approx $25 a share the day after Vegas was shuttered.
While the company isn’t scheduled to release its first quarter financial performance until 4/30/20, company officials predicted dire results for the first quarter of 2020. MGM is estimating its consolidated net revenue total for the quarter to be about $2.3 billion, which would be about a 29% decrease from the same period in 2019.
Officials also mentioned MGM’s solid liquidity, the company reported it has about $6 billion in cash. The domestic properties still cost about $270 million per month to maintain and have begun "aggressive cost reduction initiatives".
About 52,000 of MGM’s 80,000 world wide employees are based in Las Vegas.
MGM Properties: Bellagio, ARIA, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Delano Las Vegas, Park MGM, The Mirage, New York-New York, Luxor, Excalibur.
Not knowing how long travel restrictions will last and how scared the population is to return to crowded venues, it remains unknown how fast the casinos will get back to normal. So these cost cutting measures will help ensure sustainability until it is back to business as usual.
No matter what, vacations like Casinos, Cruises and Theme Parks will likely be forever changed.

MGM to sell Circus Circus Las Vegas for $825 million to Phil Ruffin
MGM Resorts (NYSE: MGM) is a holding company that owns and operates casino resorts, dining, entertainment, retail, and other amenities.
MGM has signed a deal to sell its Circus Circus Las Vegas property for $825 million to Treasure Island owner Phil Ruffin.

Originally opened October 18, 1968; Circus Circus Hotel & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip was built as a middle class family-fun vacation destination. The Hotel & Casino has gaming, live Circus entertainment and The Adventuredome (a 5-acre indoor amusement park).
Ruffin said he would like to keep the Circus Circus cost friendly reputation intact. Ruffin, also owns Treasure Island and a stake in the Trump International Hotel on the Strip.
Number of rooms: 3,773
Total gaming space: 123,928 sq ft
Comparing the last three years’ performance of Circus Circus with the other Las Vegas Strip properties, Circus Circus’ EBITDA (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) margin is 5% lower than the average.

Caesars Entertainment to Merge with Eldorado Resorts
U.S. casino operator Eldorado Resorts (NASDAQ: ERI) currently operates 26 gambling properties in the U.S. in Nevada, Colorado, Missouri, Louisiana and New Jersey.
Caesars Entertainment has entered into an agreement to merge with Eldorado Resorts, creating a massive leader in gaming and entertainment. For Caesars Rewards members, this will mean access to approximately 60 properties across 16 states.
Eldorado Resorts is set to buy Caesars Entertainment in a $17.3 billion cash and stock deal, which includes Ceasars' debt. Eldorado will be 51% owner in the merger. To acquire the Caesars name and properties, Eldorado will pay $7.2 billion in cash and approx 77 million stock shares.
Though the announcement today will begin a long journey as the two companies merge, they have announced that the Caesars Rewards program will remain intact and be an important part of the combined company. There will be no change to your Caesars Rewards Tier Status, your Rewards Credit balance or your existing reservations. There is no change to how you manage your Caesars Rewards account or book reservations.
You will continue to earn Tier Credits and Reward Credits for all of your activity as well as continue receiving offers and comps from your favorite Caesars resorts and casinos.
They are not announcing any changes to their network of properties at this time. In the future, with the close of the transaction we can expect to benefit from the expanded footprint across the U.S., providing guests with greater choice in where to stay and play. This deal may also increase purchasing leverages and could even result in slightly lower prices in food and rooms.
Update: $8.58 billion cash-and-stock merger of Eldorado Resorts Inc. and Caesars Entertainment Corp. closed Monday 7/20/2020, forging the largest casino operator in the U.S..

Circus Circus Las Vegas will not host Fright Dome Haunted Attraction for 2018
Every October since 2003, the Adventuredome Theme Park has changed into Fright Dome, a Halloween-themed theme park.
However this longtime Halloween tradition will not be happening at Circus Circus Hotel & Resort Casino this year. Sadly it will not happen at all this year.
Circus Circus has not released a reason.
Egan Productions, which produces the Fright Dome event, did release a statement that ultimately gives hope of finding a new venue for the 2019 Halloween Season: "We look forward to many successful Halloween events in the future.".
"Circus Circus has informed Egan Productions that it will not move forward with Fright Dome for 2018. While we regret this bad news, we are grateful to the people of Las Vegas for supporting Fright Dome over the past fifteen years. We look forward to many successful Halloween events in the future."
