Another Las Vegas resort has joined the ranks of midweek closures. The Mirage Las Vegas shut it’s doors today, ceasing all operations at their casino and restaurants Mondays through Thursdays. Their hotel had already been closed for midweek operations in November.
In an announcement, MGM Resorts stated that these closures come as midweek demand has been low due to Coronavirus and the state wide restrictions on large groups.
MGM says that they do not anticipate the closures to last beyond February. However, they will “continue evaluating business levels”, leaving the door open for the shut down to last longer.
Overall, Las Vegas resort hotel occupancy was down over 40% in October from the previous year. You can read more about the midweek closures at the Mirage Las Vegas by visiting the Las Vegas Sun.
