This show was originally performed five nights per week at the 1,224 - seat Monte Carlo Theater, which under its previous name ( Lance Burton Theatre ) hosted magician Lance Burton, who performed there between June 21, 1996 and September 4, 2010.

As of 2009, the Monte Carlo print advertising campaign features humorously misspelled French words ( `` tray sheek '' ) coupled with glamorous images. The campaign 's tagline is `` Unpretentiously luxurious ''. History Construction and Opening In 1994, Gold Strike Resorts announced a partnership with Mirage Resorts to build a $250 - million casino targeted at budget - conscious visitors, on part of the site of the demolished Dunes golf course on the Las Vegas Strip. Ground was broken for the hotel in March 1995. It was originally known as the `` Grand Victoria ''. The palatial style was a reminiscent of the Belle Epoque, which is how the French refer to the architecture of the Victorian era in England. After much criticism by MGM Grand officials, it was shortened to `` Victoria '' and then changed to `` Monte Carlo '', named after the Monte Carlo Casino in Monte Carlo, Monaco. Monte Carlo was built as a joint venture between Mirage Resorts and Circus Circus Enterprises ( who acquired Gold Strike Resorts in 1995 ), and cost US $ 344 million to build. The resort sits on 44 acres ( 18 ha ), occupied by the Dunes Hotel golf course until its demolition in October 1993. The Monte Carlo opened to the public on June 21, 1996, at 12 : 01 a.m., following invitation - only VIP pre-opening celebration the prior day, including a fireworks show. 2008 fire On January 25, 2008, at 10 : 57 AM, a three - alarm fire was reported on the exterior of the top six floors and roof of the casino. Portions of the hotel facade 's Exterior Insulation Finishing System burned with some debris falling off and starting smaller secondary fires on ledges three floors below. The fire was fully contained an hour after it began. It was an exterior fire, although there was water damage to parts of several floors. The Hotel & Casino reopened to guests on February 15, 2008. MGM Mirage officials put the total losses due to fire damage and loss of business at just under $100 million. Rebranding The 5,200 - seat Park Theater at the Monte Carlo was built and due to open on December 17, 2016. In June 2016, MGM announced a joint venture with Sydell Group that the Monte Carlo would be renovated and rebranded as the Park MGM, named after the adjacent dining and entertainment district, The Park, that opened in April 2016, and the NoMad Hotel would occupy the top floors. It will feature the new Eataly restaurant. Both hotels will begin construction at the end of 2016 and will open in 2018. Hotel32 Hotel32 is an ultra-luxury, boutique hotel located on Monte Carlo 's top floor. The new extension opened on August 10, 2009. The hotel has 50 lofts ranging in size from 850 - square - foot ( 79 m ) studios to 2,000 - square - foot ( 190 m ) penthouses and can only be accessed via a private elevator. All Hotel32 guests have access to a dedicated Suite Assistant, who provides personal butler and concierge services and numerous high - tech touches, including a TV integrated into the bathroom mirror. Guests have access to Lounge32, which overlooks the Las Vegas skyline. Hotel32 offers its guests a branded iPhone at check - in to promote the use of hotel amenities. The system, running Hotel Evolution software, enables the hotel to make changes to services easily, because updates are made automatically. In June 2016, MGM announced a joint venture with the Sydell Group that the Hotel 32 would be renovated and rebranded as the NoMad Hotel. In popular culture Monte Carlo Resort and Casino has figured in several feature films and television series.
