A look at Bruno Mars’ glamorous new cocktail lounge in Las Vegas

The Pinky Ring inside the Bellagio will serve up live performances and signature drinks

Bruno Mars is bringing some of his 24K magic to Las Vegas—and not just in terms of music.

The pop star has just opened the Pinky Ring, a cocktail bar and entertainment lounge, inside the Bellagio Hotel & Casino. The venue is serving up sophisticated cocktails alongside live performances, all curated by Mars himself.

“I’ve been performing in Vegas for years, and I’ve always wanted a place where I could throw glamorous parties when I’m in town. A place that felt like my personal penthouse suite, with live music and sensational cocktails,” Mars said in a statement. “The Pinky Ring is that.”

To celebrate the recent opening, Mars held a raucous party attended by the likes of Lady Gaga, Janelle Monáe, T-Pain, Gayle King, and more celebs. Mars even took the stage with his band the Hooligans, who are serving as the venue’s resident house band for the first two weeks. Moving forward, you can expect more groups to perform, as well as DJs spinning vinyl.

While food won’t be served at the Pinky Ring, the cocktail list is extensive. Signature cocktails like the Hooligan (tequila, Cointreau, agave nectar, lime, and jalapeño with a Tajín rim) and the Mars Mocha (chocolate rum, Cognac, espresso, banana, and toasted sesame froth) embody the slick, suave vibe that Mars has become known for. That’s found in the design too, which combines contemporary flourishes with old-school glamour.

“There’s nobody in the world as fabulous as Bruno Mars. It’s been a fun experience to let him take the reins to reimagine this space. From the carpet to the ceiling, this is all him,” Ari Kastrati, the chief hospitality officer for MGM Resorts International, said in a statement. “Collaborating with one of the entertainment industry’s biggest stars to reimagine what a night out in Las Vegas should be represents an incredible moment in this resort’s story.”

Given the atmosphere, you may be tempted to document your night out at the Pinky Ring on social media. Unfortunately, you can’t use your phone in the club. Like they say: What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But Mars has created an experience that you won’t soon forget.
