It was all made possible by Southern California’s San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, which bought the mothballed resort last year and became the first indigenous tribe to own a Las Vegas casino.
There was a big VIP party, fireworks and a large crowd that filled the casino floor once the doors officially opened. After a $700 million renovation by Station Casinos that failed to make the off-Strip casino-resort hip again - and a two-year closure due to the pandemic - the Palms reopened last Wednesday with a new owner.
