Jewel nightclub
Aria is getting a new “Jewel” in its crown of excellent service and hospitality. The brand new nightlife concept by Hakkasan Group and envisioned by the Rockwell Group will debut in the spring of 2016, replacing the empty space where Haze, Aria’s former nightclub, used to sit. It’s been more than a year since Haze closed its doors, and Hakkasan is partnering with MGM Resorts and Dubai World to bring a polished “Jewel” to Aria, erasing that “Hazy” past.
Although quite smaller than Hakkasan at MGM Grand (80,000 sq. ft.) and Omnia at Caesars Palace (75,000 sq. ft.) measuring only 24,000 sq. ft., Hakkasan Group has promised Jewel will not fail to impress. They will exploit the small nature of the venue and make it a more intimate experience; as Hakkasan Group President Nick McCabe put it: “It has an intimate nature. A jewel is very precious…”
