Watch the Tropicana implosion live as the iconic Las Vegas hotel and casino is reduced to rubble on Wednesday (9 October).
The Tropicana’s hotel towers are expected to tumble in 22 seconds at 2:30 am.. The celebration will include a fireworks display and drone show.
The city hasn’t blown up a Strip casino since 2016, when the final tower of the Riviera was leveled for a convention center expansion.
This time, the implosion will clear land for a $1.5 billion baseball stadium for the relocating Oakland Athletics, part of the city’s latest rebrand into a sports hub.
That will leave only the Flamingo from the city’s mob era on the Strip.
The Tropicana, the third-oldest casino on the Strip, closed in April after welcoming guests for 67 years.
Once known as the “Tiffany of the Strip” for its opulence, it was a frequent haunt of the legendary Rat Pack.
