And maybe it's just the Friday afternoon anything-looks-better-than-a-desk syndrome, but they both look pretty killer to us. <p>But please, judge for yourself.

The Wynn Las Vegas will be losing its banner Broadway show this summer, when Spamalot goes dark in July after a 15-month run. What epic entertainment can possibly replace the Tony Award-winning musical? Uh, apparently, Danny Gans.

When the impressionist moves in, the theater will be re-branded as part of Encore Las Vegas, the hotel's attached expansion property.

This isn't the only hotel show shakeup we've heard about either. Criss Angel is slated to do a Cirque du Soliel show at the Luxor, and another Cirque production could be on the way to one of Wynn's Vegas hotels.

Speaking of Las Vegas pools, this is the view that we had poolside at the Palazzo. Ok, so we zoomed in a lot but still, this snapshot got us all excited about Encore Las Vegas, Steve Wynn's follow-up to his namesake property.

On the outside the tower looks exactly the same. And inside we doubt things will vary that much, except that Wynn has plans to add five more restaurants, 11 more retail outlets and a new spa and salon.

Let's just hope people will still have money to spend in Vegas when Encore opens sometime in December 2008.]]> juliana 2008-04-22T17:08:04-05:00 Las Vegas: Wynn's Encore Suites To Open in December 2008 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/2/27/171622/525 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/encorelasvegas.jpg" class="imgborder"><p>One minute we're high: <b>Wynn Encore</b>, the follow up to Steve Wynn's Wynn Las Vegas, will be ready to open December 2008. &nbsp;And the next minute we're low.<p>That's like another year away.
