NEW MEETING SPACE AT MGM GRAND
OFFERS EXPANSIVE LOCALE
FOR GROUPS OF ALL SIZES
LAS VEGAS – With the opening of the Marquee
Ballroom, the resort expands its award-winning meeting and convention space to
an impressive 602,000 square feet. Certified Meeting Planners (CMPs) on staff,
smoke-free meeting and convention facilities and a AAA Four Diamond property
with numerous amenities add up to an ideal location for hosting both intimate
meetings and large-scale events.
The Marquee Ballroom, a pillarless,
92,000-square-foot structure, is located next to the MGM Grand Conference
Center. This multi-purpose building is capable of accommodating up to 6,000
guests in comfort and style. The space can be used for tradeshows, general
sessions and catered functions of all sizes and types. Meeting planners will
find the fully carpeted facility comes complete with floor-based power, wireless
Internet access and convenient rigging points throughout.
“MGM Grand
specializes in meetings of all sizes and functions,” said Luis Lamar, vice
president of sales for MGM Grand. “With the addition of the Marquee Ballroom, we
offer even more meeting flexibility ensuring the needs of the planners are met.”
Conventioneers and meeting planners cannot survive on meetings alone. CMPs
will assist in arranging both event-based activities as well as the ever-popular
après-event options. Groups are afforded the opportunity to dine at
award-winning restaurants such as the Michelin Three Star Joël Robuchon,
experience A-list entertainment with Cirque du Soleil’s KÀ, relax and be
pampered at the Grand Spa and Cristophe Salon as well as indulge in several
nightlife options. The full-service staff will create the event of a lifetime at
the only property that promises “Maximum Vegas” – MGM Grand.
