The Bud Light Beer Garden will encompass a 130,000-foot immersive space at the corner of Las Vegas Blvd. and Hacienda Ave. within walking distance of Allegiant. The outdoor tailgate includes complimentary admission to the public, but fans can purchase a $99 VIP all you can eat or drink package featuring unlimited drinks and buffet options from MGM’ restaurants.
Bud Light Beer Garden will open four hours prior to each event and remain open until the event’s conclusion.
“The city’s first football season with fans in the stands is a monumental moment,” said Chuck Bowling, president and COO of Mandalay Bay and Luxor. “We’ve created a game day event that embodies the spirit and excitement of Las Vegas and offers fans unique pre-game experiences. We look forward to creating new traditions at this venue for this season and beyond.”
The beer garden will also offer interactive football challenges and life-sized Jenga and chess, Live DJ entertainment, BetMGM sports betting suites, and special appearances by former professional athletes.
Bud Light Beer Garden will debut Thursday, September 2 when UNLV hosts Eastern Washington in its season opener.
The beer garden will come to life again two days later when Arizona takes on BYU in the Las Vegas Kick Off on September 4.
The outdoor tailgate will return for every UNLV and Las Vegas Raiders home game the rest of the fall.
The Raiders play their first home game Monday, September 13 against the Baltimore Ravens.
