LAS VEGAS—Bally’s Corp. has unveiled plans for Bally’s Las Vegas, a new entertainment resort to be built on the former Tropicana Las Vegas site. The development will share a 35-acre campus with the upcoming Las Vegas Athletics Major League Baseball ballpark.

The company has submitted plans for entitlements to Clark County and expects construction to begin in the first half of 2026.

Developed in collaboration with JLL and designed by Marnell Architecture, the project will include two hotel towers with 3,000 rooms, a 2,500-seat entertainment venue, and more than 500,000 square feet of retail, dining, and entertainment space. The resort will also feature a casino and VIP access to the adjacent ballpark.

JLL will oversee the project’s retail and dining leasing, focusing on a mix of global brands and local businesses.

“Las Vegas is one of the most important markets for food, beverage, entertainment, and retail in the United States,” said Michael Hirschfeld, vice-chair of JLL. “The extended hours of operation in the market yield some of the highest sales per unit in the country.”

Soo Kim, chair of the Bally’s Corp. board of directors, adds, “Bally’s Las Vegas represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to redefine the heart of the Strip. With world-class partners like JLL and Marnell, and with the arrival of Major League Baseball, we are not just building an integrated resort. We are creating a landmark destination that unites sports, entertainment, dining, and hospitality on a scale only Las Vegas can deliver.”
