Plaza Hotel & Casino unveiled June 8<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

 LAS VEGAS <\/strong>\u2013 Under the twinkling lights of its iconic dome, the Plaza Hotel & Casino officially cut the ribbon to celebrate the upcoming grand opening of its Main Street Reimagination projects that transformed its historic Main Street fa\u00e7ade and porte-coch\u00e8re into a one-of-a-kind destination for cocktails, gaming, and dining with four new venues: Carousel Bar, Pinkbox Doughnuts, the rooftop patio at Oscar\u2019s steakhouse, and Brian Christopher Slots at Plaza, downtown\u2019s only smokefree and social media friendly gaming space. All venues will officially open to the public on June 10. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plaza Hotel & Casino CEO Jonathan Jossel cut the commemorative ribbon at the project\u2019s centerpiece Carousel Bar, alongside city of Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman, former Mayor Oscar Goodman, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

leading gaming social media influencer Brian Christopher, and Judith Perez Siegel, owner of Pinkbox Doughnuts and Michael Crandall, chief business officer of Pinkbox Doughnuts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor more than 50 years, the Plaza has called 1 Main Street home,\u201d said Jossel. \u201cMain Street is where Las Vegas got its start, and the Plaza continues to enhance this historic and exciting thoroughfare. Last year, we opened the legendary live music venue Sand Dollar Downtown. Today, we further establish Main Street as a premier downtown destination with the addition of Carousel Bar, Pinkbox Doughnuts, Brian Christopher Slots at Plaza, and a rooftop patio overlooking it all at Oscar\u2019s steakhouse.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the ribbon cutting, Jossel thanked city of Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman and her husband, former Las Vegas Mayor and steakhouse namesake, Oscar Goodman for their continued support of the Plaza and downtown redevelopment. He also recognized Judith Perez Siegel, Michael Crandall, and Brian Christopher for partnering with the Plaza. Jossel added that the Plaza\u2019s evolution and improvements, including these four projects, wouldn\u2019t be possible without the vision of the property\u2019s owner, Poju Zabludowicz, chairman and CEO of Tamares Group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Venues <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The centerpiece of the Plaza\u2019s Main Street reimagination project transforms the space under the Plaza\u2019s iconic dome into the Carousel Bar, <\/strong>an outdoor bar experience unlike any other. Guests enjoy handmade cocktails, beer, wine, and mocktails among life-sized Vegas-themed elements, including carousel horses moving up and down, a martini glass with a spinning olive, an oversized deck of cards, a 14-foot-tall neon showgirl sign, and a rotating ribbon of lights above the bar. The bar\u2019s design preserves the dome\u2019s iconic vintage Vegas lights that have been featured in numerous movies and shows over the years. The 2,500 sq. ft. outdoor venue includes Vegas\u2019 only outdoor video poker machines, an outdoor cooling system, and seating for nearly 100 guests in booths, at the bar, and along its outer rail that overlooks Main Street at the western entrance to the Fremont Street Experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adjacent to Carousel Bar is Brian Christopher Slots at Plaza, downtown\u2019s first smoke-free and social media friendly gaming space. <\/strong>The new gaming space expands the popular social media influencer\u2019s presence at the Plaza by 5X, from the original 16 slot machines to an expansive 2,500 square feet with 75 of the industry\u2019s latest and most innovative games for guests 21 and older. The space also supports social media posting like never before by offering fun backdrops for selfies and group shots as well as the ability to play only copyright friendly songs that can be posted on social platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oscar\u2019s rooftop patio <\/strong>is above the new gaming space and accessible via the restaurant\u2019s existing lounge. Offering the award-winning restaurant\u2019s full dinner menu in addition to its extensive wine and cocktail lists, Oscar\u2019s patio will be the first al fresco space for fine dining in downtown. Able to accommodate approximately 225 people, the patio at Oscar\u2019s is a great new location for dinner and cocktail receptions with amazing views of downtown, including Carousel Bar and the lights and action on Fremont and Main Streets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fast-growing Nevada-based doughnut franchise, Pinkbox Doughnuts <\/strong>rounds out the Main Street Reimagination with its first location in downtown Las Vegas. Known for its over-the-top doughnut creations and immersive store experiences, Pinkbox Doughnuts welcomes guests through a giant 12-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

foot-tall 3D doughnut with sprinkles entrance. The interior d\u00e9cor of the 1,200 sq. ft. store mirrors Pinkbox Doughnuts\u2019 other locations with its pink floor stripes and 3D sprinkles, signature pinks drips on the walls, and a glass doughnut display case that shows the full line of more than 70 delicious and whimsically designed doughnuts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naming Contest <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Plaza is asking the public to help name the Carousel Bar\u2019s life-sized showgirl. Now until July 10, potential names can be submitted online at https:\/\/www.plazahotelcasino.com\/showgirl\/<\/a>. Winners will be announced July 11 and will receive a two-night stay at the Plaza Hotel & Casino, $100 to Carousel Bar, $250 to Oscar\u2019s steakhouse, and one dozen free doughnuts at Pinkbox Doughnuts. The selected name will be engraved on a nameplate beside the showgirl. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Special hotel offer <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To showcase the new food & beverage venues, the Plaza is offering the \u201cReimagine Your Stay\u201d hotel package for stays June 10 through Sept. 6 that includes two complimentary signature cocktails at Carousel Bar, two free glazed doughnuts at Pinkbox Doughnuts, and 20% discount for dinner at Oscar\u2019s steakhouse.
