To Make Way for New Light Group Concept: The Bank, Set To Open New Year’s Eve ’07 The Bank Will Transform Las Vegas Nightlife.
The Light Group, which redefined the Las Vegas nightlife landscape when it opened Light Nightclub at Bellagio six years ago, will close the club’s doors for renovations Monday, Sept. 3. The space will be remodeled into a revolutionary nightlife concept named The Bank. Set to open New Year’s Eve 2007, The Bank will transform the Las Vegas nightclub experience yet again.
“The Bank will defy the typical nightlife experience in Las Vegas,” said Andy Masi, Managing Partner of The Light Group. “With The Bank, we will raise the bar once again by introducing Las Vegas to the most sophisticated and exciting nightclub experience yet.”
Offering unrivaled service in a one-of-a-kind atmosphere, The Bank will cater to a discerning audience with higher sensibilities. The exquisitely chic and stunning 6,600 square foot space will make The Bank the most sought-after club experience in Las Vegas. Guests will be greeted by a sensuous foyer providing a warm welcoming space. The entrance into the nightclub's main room will present a dramatic aerial perspective: elegant VIP booths layer the dance floor in an impressive multi-tiered environment. A glass encased dance floor, set at the lowest tier, will be slightly raised creating a brilliant focal point in the center of the room.
Like its namesake, The Bank will be a sanctuary for all things precious – the décor and design are no exception. Attention to detail abounds where combinations of rich textures and carefully thought-out elements will create a harmoniously paired aesthetic. A rich kaleidoscope of colors will complement the club’s intricate details creating a luxurious yet contemporary vibe. Vivid one-of-a-kind ambient and mood lighting on both the ceiling and floor will create an ultra-sensory experience and a state-of-the-art sound system, built to suit the needs of all music types, will bring the club to life. Simply stated, The Bank will be cosmopolitan, exclusive and one of Las Vegas’ most desirable party spots.
Overseeing the management of the The Bank will be managing partners: New York club owner and international promoter Danny A and The Light Group’s Jodi Myers. Danny A, part owner of New York hot-spot Marquee, and Myers, a six-year VIP Marketing veteran, will oversee the venue’s overall operations, marketing and brand development.
“The Bank will offer an atmosphere of sophistication and exclusivity,” said Bill McBeath, president of Bellagio. “Our guests will experience a level of energy and service consistent with The Light Group.”
