Las Vegas high rollers and tourists came to the Palms Casino Resort to get past a red velvet rope and ride up the elevator to enjoy the view of the Playboy Club’s Bunny dealers, who served drinks with the signature hip-swiveling “Bunny dip.”
However, the club closed with a big part Saturday night.
The Las Vegas Playboy opened near the top of the Palms’ Fantasy Tower on Oct. 6, 2006. It was the first Playboy Club opening in two decades.
Nightclub management firm N9NE (NINE) Group, which ran the Playbloy Club and operates other venues at the Palms, issued a statement Monday confirming the closure. There is no word yet about plans for the space. N9NE and Playboy had said in March they each were pursuing other options.
Joe Magliarditi, who now runs the Palms, said Monday that the idea was to “re-concept” the Playboy space. The Palms has been making some changes, including unveiling a new sports book that incorporates poker tables, so players can hold and fold ‘em while watching games and races on giant video screens.
Playboy clubs still exist in Macau, Cancun and London.
