Las Vegas’ Legendary Ghostbar Relaunches At The Palms
The interesting reawakening of Palms Casino Resort continued at the top of the month with the grand opening of Ghostbar, the 55th-floor nightclub returning to its original name after a significant renovation under previous ownership. With its unparalleled Vegas views and high energy atmosphere, old Ghostbar was one of those legendary local hot spots. This one is different. Is it still a bumping club, or more of a relaxed ultra lounge? Are there still DJs controlling the rhythm of the room, or some other form of innovative entertainment that appeals to different audiences?
So far, the answer to all our questions is yes. Under San Manuel Gaming and Hospitality, all things Palms Casino Resort are designed for broader appeal, and Ghostbar is emblematic. It’s an indoor/outdoor social cocktail spot with DJs and vibes until Fridays and Saturdays at 10 p.m., when a full-on production show created by beloved local performer Skye Dee Miles kicks into gear.
According to Miles’ website, Missouri native Skye Dee Miles has been dazzling audiences for over 15 years. Known affectionately as “Black Sunshine”, her irrepressible vocals, high energy shows, musical versatility, humor, impeccable acting chops, and overall brilliance in connecting with an audience have made her one of the most sought after performers on the West Coast, and garnered her several music awards. Before moving to Las Vegas, Skye lit up the stage for seven years in the longest running musical revue in history called Beach Blanket Babylon in San Francisco and was also lead vocalist in a rock and soul band called Skye and UniverSoul.
Palms Casino Resort can be seen from just about anywhere in the Vegas valley. We are excited to see what is to come from the historic casino and hotel. For more information on the nightclub, eating, and more check out their website HERE.
