A striking design, ultra-luxurious accommodations and surroundings and a vast array of new-to-market dining concepts — these have been the most talked-about and anticipated features of Fontainebleau Las Vegas. But when the north Strip casino and hotel finally opens its doors on Wednesday, visitors will begin to learn that live entertainment and nightlife are equally big pieces of the picture, rounding out a full and fresh Vegas resort experience.
“The Fontainebleau brand is synonymous with entertainment, going back to the Rat Pack era,” said Fedor Banuchi, senior vice president of entertainment, special events and sponsorships. The original Fontainebleau hotel opened in Miami in 1954 and has been favored by celebrities through the decades, including Frank Sinatra and his pals, who famously spent plenty of time in Vegas casinos as well.
