PLAYBOY CLUB

The Playboy Club once defined an era and now has re-emerged to serve as the perfect complement to the Las Vegas scene. The Playboy Club is located in the Palms’ Fantasy Tower and is connected to the cutting-edge Nove Italiano and the exclusive Moon nightclub by glass and mirror-ensconced escalators. Every design element is custom made for Playboy Club, from the bunny buttons on the sofas to the collage wallpaper in the bathrooms featuring every centerfold from the last 25 years covered in shimmering glass beads. A wide range of wine, spirits and liquor are available, including Playboy Club’s signature libation, the Bunny Tail, which is accented by a puff of cotton candy. The Playboy Club introduces a complete integration of lounging and gaming, which has never before been attempted in Las Vegas. An exclusive VIP area called the Fireplace Lounge features dark tones, a cozy fireplace, its own bar and sophisticated furniture. Central to the main room is a gaming pit, which offers blackjack and roulette. Design details reflect the iconic image of the Playboy logo and capture the lifestyle the Playboy Club has always, and will always, represent to the world. The entire theme is presented in an elegant, understated manner, as the nostalgic era of the Playboy Club is updated for 21st century Las Vegas in a way only the N9NE Group could do it. Each month, Playboy Club hosts the Miss Playboy Club Model Search, where contestants compete for a variety of prizes such as inclusion in the Playboy Club annual calendar and the once-in-a-lifetime chance to appear in a future issue of Playboy magazine.

Playboy Club is open seven nights a week, from 9 p.m. until late. For additional information, please visit www.playboyclub.com or call 702.942.6900.
