Tropicana Las Vegas reopening pushed back to mid-September

The Tropicana, which is looking for a buyer, has been shuttered since mid-March. It is one of only two Penn properties that have yet to reopen, with Zia Park in New Mexico.

Penn spokesman Jeff Morris said the company decided to delay the resort’s reopening after reviewing the impact of COVID-19 on demand for travel and room nights in the Las Vegas market.

CEO and President Jay Snowden warned investors this month that the property’s closure may be extended.

“There’s a lot of moving parts,” Snowden said on an Aug. 6 earnings call. “We’re going to be really thoughtful around when and how we reopen (Tropicana). … As of right now, September feels right, but we have several more weeks to nail down an exact date, and if it’s not right, then we’ll wait a little bit longer to reopen.”

The delayed opening means the property will remain closed on Labor Day weekend, when Las Vegas is expected to see a boost in foot traffic.

Once open, the property will have limited offerings. Food options will include Starbucks and a quick-serve menu from Robert Irvine’s Public House, according to the property’s website.
