MGM Grand will open a social lounge on December 29 that will feature both gaming and non-gaming activities expected to appeal to a young demographic.
Called Level Up, the new space—to be operated by the Hakkassan Group—will feature two areas. One will feature a gaming arena with stadium seating for hybrid electronic table games including blackjack, poker, keno and roulette. The stadium setup will accommodate 40 gamblers at a time who can participate in live feeds of the table games.
The other area will feature traditional bar games including pool, foosball, ping pong, air hockey and arcade-style games including Bubble Hockey Sigma Derby, Giant Pac-Man and Connect Four.
“Level Up will be a popular, high-energy gaming lounge that will offer our guests and visitors the newest entertainment experience to see and be seen,” said Scott Sibella, president and COO of MGM Grand, in an interview with the Las Vegas Sun. “Our goal is to create a fun, social atmosphere featuring a variety of traditional games, as well as games of skill, that showcase the industry’s leading technology.”
