Remembering The Mirage Hotel and Casino. ❤️

The Mirage closed permanently in July of 2024, to be transformed into a Hard Rock Hotel and Casino with a 700’ tall guitar-shaped hotel! It’s expected to open in late 2027!

The photo depicts a lush, tropical garden with a small stone waterfall in the background. Vibrant plants and flowers, including red, orange, and pink bromeliads, green foliage, and variegated leaves, fill the foreground. A sign reading "Mirage" is visible above the waterfall.
