industry-leading portfolio of entertainment venues," said
Bill Hornbuckle, president of MGM

for a new venue than for Bruno Mars
to be among the first to grace its stage, and we get to do it
twice, an amazing beginning to a multi-year partnership."
PARK THEATER
Mars will ring in the New Year in a big way when he performs
Friday, Dec. 30 and Saturday, Dec. 31 at the spectacular new Park
Theater at Monte Carlo Resort and Casino. He is scheduled to
return to Park Theater in 2017 for additional performances

and visual technology, will provide artists an exclusive space to
create one-of-a-kind productions where every seat allows guests to
feel up close and personal.
Park Theater is the first step in the recently announced
reimagination of Monte Carlo. The
transformation, taking place over the next two years, will include
two distinct hotel experiences – a Las
Vegas version of the Sydell Group's famed NoMad Hotel and
the launch of a new luxury hotel named Park MGM. Each hotel will
feature fully redesigned hotel guest rooms and innovative food
& beverage offerings, highlighted by Eataly, a vibrant Italian
marketplace with cafes, to-go counters and full-service restaurants
interspersed with high-quality products from sustainable Italian
and local producers.

Mars will host a special engagement Tuesday, Dec. 27 at The Theater at MGM National
Harbor. He will be one of the venue's first performers,
setting the tone for the level of A-list entertainment to be
expected at the stunning new resort scheduled to
open Thursday, Dec. 8.
Tickets for the show range from $150 to
$395, not including applicable service charges, and go on
sale Friday, Oct. 14 at 10 a.m.
