Wynn Las Vegas Unwraps Exclusive Holiday Events and Must-Have Gifts
Las Vegas (November 1, 2018) — Wynn Las Vegas invites guests to celebrate the wonders of the season with a festive new collection of holiday offerings. Throughout November and December, the entire family will enjoy making special memories together at returning annual traditions and exclusive new experiences, all inspired by the singular magic of Wynn.
Indulge in the flavors of the season at popular events including the Holiday Dim Sum Brunch at Wing Lei, Frank’s Birthday Dinner at Sinatra, and the guest favorite Treat Trimming Party, Wynn’s edible décor workshop for elves of all ages. Debuting this year are delectable holiday-themed Christmas Day menus at several restaurants, as well as the return of Coquito, a traditional Puerto Rican twist on eggnog served for the holidays, available at all resort bars. New Wynn Master Classes include The Glories of Gin Cocktails, where guests will learn about libations that will add cheer to any holiday party; and Cookies and Cocktails, which swaps out the milk from this timeless tradition with something a little more spirited.
The 2018 Gift Guide makes a serious fashion statement with exclusive pieces that can only be found at Wynn, including the spectacular Shooting Star collectible handbag from Judith Leiber Couture, and several styles of party-ready footwear from Sophia Webster. Additionally, a list of exquisite gifts for women and men has been curated from the luxury boutiques at Wynn and Encore, including Chopard, Chanel, Stella McCartney, Salvatore Ferragamo, Bottega Veneta, Vitra Eyewear, Bijan Designer For Men, and more.
The showpiece of the resort’s holiday décor is the main atrium, which will once again be transformed into a winter wonderland featuring intricately crafted whimsical villages inspired by the novel, Gulliver’s Travels. At The Buffet at Wynn, the annual edible holiday display returns with a larger-than-life snow globe fantasy. Topping off the design are thousands of ivory and gold poinsettias amid seasonal lighting, and dozens of beautifully embellished holiday trees throughout the resort, all providing the perfect photo backdrop.
