The Venetian Resort Las Vegas will celebrate Lunar New Year in traditional style with extravagant décor, entertainment, and food and beverage offerings

THE WATERFALL ATRIUM AND GARDENS TRANSFORM FOR CHINESE NEW YEAR





To commemorate the Year of the Rabbit, The Venetian Resort’s floral and horticulture team worked with a team of artisans and consulted a feng shui master to create the massive Chinese New Year display.

“Planning for this extravagant Chinese New Year display began more than a year ago,” said Dana Beatty, executive director of floral and horticulture at The Venetian Resort. “Our guests cherish the Chinese New Year holiday, so we strive to create a display that is both visually stunning and culturally accurate.”

The feature of the installation is a colossal rabbit that stands 16 feet tall and weighs 700 pounds. To create this stunning rabbit, the team used a steel frame to build the body before sculpting the shape with foam and faux fur, then added facial features, ears, and belly to create a healthy and friendly look.







Surrounding the rabbit is lush greenery, as well as gold coins that represent prosperity. The rabbit, the fourth in the Chinese zodiac, is a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity.

EYE CEREMONY AND LION DANCE CELEBRATION ON JAN. 23











An important tradition in Chinese culture, and a favorite among guests, is the lion dance and eye painting ceremony which symbolizes luck and prosperity. The celebration will take place Jan. 23, at 3 p.m. in The Venetian porte cochere, starting with the eye painting ceremony followed by a parade of dancers and drummers winding their way through The Venetian lobby and casino before stopping in The Palazzo Waterfall Atrium, then continuing through The Palazzo casino, lobby, and ending at The Palazzo porte cochere.

CULINARY AND COCKTAILS

MOTT 32

Direct from Hong Kong, the award-winning Chinese restaurant, Mott 32, is ringing in Lunar New Year with a special menu available from Jan. 21 – 28. Chef Alan Ji and his team are serving a la carte dishes like lobster and abalone salad, steamed sea bass with chopped red chili, pan-fried golden oysters with honey glaze and brown sugar sticky rice cakes.

HONG KONG CAFÉ

Hong Kong Café has created a special limited-time Chinese New Year menu available Jan. 21 – 25 featuring authentic dishes like sun-dried golden oysters with sea moss, braised sliced abalone with mushrooms, buddha feast creation and Chef Simon’s golden crispy chicken. 

THE COCKTAIL COLLECTIVE

Make The Cocktail Collective part of your Lunar New Year celebration Jan. 22 – Feb. 5, with special cognac cocktails served three different ways at the trio of bars:

  • THE DORSEY COCKTAIL BAR

The Lunar Lantern is a riff on an old fashioned with an explosion of flavor that takes over the palette.  Made with Rémy Martin VSOP cognac, Bénédictine, and dash of Angostura bitters, this drink is worth a second round. 

  • ELECTRA COCKTAIL CLUB
