Bruno Mars, a long-time Las Vegas performer, wanted a personal party spot in the city. He desired a place with live music and top-notch cocktails. This led him to create Pinky Ring at the Bellagio. The cocktail lounge, separate from the casino’s noise, spans a 5,000-square-foot area. It’s inspired by ’70s luxury and museum design, offering a unique, glamorous speakeasy experience.

Upon entry, guests pass through a mirrored corridor, a transition from the outside world. The main bar and lounge lead to a conversation pit with curvy banquettes and velvet armchairs. The dim lighting sets the mood for the signature cocktails like the Hooligan and the Mars Mocha. DJs play vinyl records all night. Phones are not allowed, maintaining the lounge’s exclusivity. But as they say, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
