The Encore groundbreaking not only commemorates a memorable date in the
history of Las Vegas; both the opening of the Desert Inn and Wynn Las
Vegas, but also stands for Wynn Resorts commitment to the growth of Las
Vegas -- and the entire gaming community.
Over its 56 year heritage, this site has embraced a resort philosophy
with golf and spa coupled with entertainment.
Not just a place to roll the dice or spin the wheel, Las Vegas has had
a variety of entertainment options for many years. The Desert Inn launched
this concept by providing a multitude of fabulous entertainers who graced
their stage. Audiences enjoyed the acts of comedic icons such as Jack
Benny, Jerry Lewis, Joan Rivers and Carol Burnett; were entertained by
musicians such as Harry James and Ray Anthony and soothed by the voices of
Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis and Tony Bennett. In addition, dancing legends
such as Ginger Rogers and Harold Nicholas were some of the propertys most
memorable acts.
On April 28, 2000 Steve Wynn and the newly-formed Wynn Resorts acquired
the Desert Inn property. Exactly five years later, Wynn Las Vegas opened
its doors on April 28, 2005. The Desert Inns commitment and philosophy of
creating a resort atmosphere continues and grows at Wynn Las Vegas. Wynn
Las Vegas is a destination resort known for its entertainment, shopping,
dining, and golf and spa experiences.
Encore will be developed and will mark the second full-scale hotel to
occupy a portion of the companys 240-acre assembly of real estate in Las
Vegas. The expansion of the resort will be fully integrated with
neighboring Wynn Las Vegas, containing all the usual elements that complete
a resort experience; including additional rooms, convention and meeting
space, more casino space, restaurants, nightclubs, spa and salon, retail
outlets and swimming pools.
