Guests were welcomed by Vegas showgirls, entering through a light tunnel placing them into the campaign on Fremont Street, to elegant bars with glittering chandeliers and a private lounge adorned in leather and velvet encapsulating the holiday campaign feel. Bringing Vegas to L.A. with Casino boohoo, guests played their hands at poker and roulette tables, tested their luck on slot machines, and were enchanted as a suspended aerialist performed above them.
