Spread across seven thousand square meters, it is considered the Heaven of gambling, the place where every gambler wants to come back again and again.
With 55 playing tables, the Imperial Palace is known to keep its promise “There is always room for you!“, and this is true whatever your game may be Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, Big Six, Pai Gow Poker, Three-card Poker or “Let it Ride“ Poker.
The Imperial Palace also offers free lessons, one hour each, to the novices of gambling who are willing to feel the thrills of a casino game. The School of Gambling is open Mondays to Fridays (except for legal holidays) and the “classes“ are Blackjack, Craps and Roulette. The courses are not held in a classroom, but in the casino, at the gambling table, preparing today’s students to become tomorrow’s gamblers.
The Imperial Palace Casino has been hosting the “Legends“ In Concert for over 20 years, a show in which carefully selected artists perform, imitating famous stars of music, both from the past and contemporary, in terms of voice, attitude, gestures, appearance and clothing.
The Terry Ryan orchestra has an important role in the show, accompanying the performers, as well as the dancing band, entitled the “Legend“ Dancers. On show in 2008 at “Legends“ in Concert are Barry White (performed by J. Carrol), Bruce Springsteen (M. Ryan), Bette Midler (S. Rae Parker), Tom Jones (S. McCoy), Dolly Parton (S. Anderson) and of course, Elvis Presley (M. Lewis). It is good to know that the ticket prices for the “Legends“ shows are quite a bargain. For less than 50 dollars you can buy a VIP ticket, including a drink on the house!
One of the main attractions in Las Vegas, also belonging to the Imperial Palace Casino, is The Auto Collection, the biggest classic cars showroom in the world. Open daily, from 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM, the showroom has over 250 vehicles on display from the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and 60’s, all in great shape, still running, and the majority is for sale.
Visitors can admire and even buy here some of the most famous vehicles of all time, such as a 1932 RollsRoyce Phantom II Continental Figoni, a Falaschi Pillarless Berline or a 1928 MercedesBenz S Tourer, as well as cars formerly owned by celebrities, such as famous TV star Johnny Carson’s 1939 Chrysler Royal Sedan, and “Eleanor“, the Ford Mustang Fastback used in the movie “Gone in Sixty Seconds“.
