Virgin Hotels Las Vegas originally planned to open in the fall. That was pushed back January 15, 2021. On December 4, the company said it would be delaying its opening once again over the uncertainty surround the rise in Covid-19 cases, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
“This decision was predicated on the current conditions in the market as it pertains to the pandemic,” Richard “Boz” Bosworth, president and CEO of JC Hospitality, owner of Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, said in a statement. “While the entire team at JC Hospitality is beyond excited to introduce the reimagined resort casino to locals and tourists alike, the safety and health of our guests, partners and team members continues to be our top priority.”
An opening date for the property, formerly the Hard Rock Hotel, has not yet been finalized, Bosworth said. But construction for the project is on time.
