Bourbon Room To Close at Venetian, Hints at New Location
The Bourbon Room, Venetian’s 80’s-themed good-time lounge is closing February 8th, 2016. This makes sense, considering Rock of Ages (which was the reason for the Bourbon Room) will also close at the Venetian, one month prior. The new location for Rock of Ages is rumored at this point. However, the rumor is it’ll show up at the Rio Las Vegas. So, what does this mean for the Bourbon Room? It seems as though that the Bourbon Room is also moving — to wherever Rock of Ages will be. We’ll assume the Rio for that as well. Bourbon staff have given hints that there will be, indeed, a new location via Facebook posts:
Bourbon Room New Location Hint 1:
And… Hint 2:
“The New Location”…so, the Bourbon Room will live on, just elsewhere. They probably just can’t say where “officially” as Rio is part of Caesars, not Sands. So Sands would view it as advertising for the competition, or something far-more legal-sounding. If you’ve been putting off seeing Las Vegas’ original Bourbon Room, you have until early February.

Michael – do you know of any other bars in Vegas that play 80s music?
Martin, we wish we could tell you we did. Although many places might play 80’s music mixed in with other generations, what made Bourbon unique is it was all 80’s all the time. Some places might have an 80’s night now and then.. but it’s not the same. We will follow up when we receive word of it’s new location.
