Blake Shelton has just revealed his plan to bring an Ole Red Outpost to Las Vegas.
“I’ve been going to Las Vegas for 20 years now, and the one thing that I’ve noticed, and people talk about, is there’s not enough country music venues,” Shelton, whose wife Gwen Stefani just wrapped up her Planet Hollywood residency, said of the motivation to bring the entertainment complex to Vegas. “There’s especially nothing right down in the midst of the strip and in the center of everything.”
A $30 million development, Ole Red Las Vegas will be a 27,000-square-foot space with four stories of food and entertainment. It will be located in front of Caesars Entertainment’s Bally’s Las Vegas at the Grand Bazaar Shops on the corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road, right in the middle of the bustling strip.
Shelton hopes to create a fun, lounging space for everyone, not just die-hard country fans.
“Maybe you just want to have one of your nights in Vegas to just chill out, have a drink and listen to some country music? To have it there so accessible and right there in the middle of everything, it’s just going to be perfect.”
The Ole Red Las Vegas location is set to open in 2023.
