Highlights

  • Context

    • Prized for its proximity to the public, technical equipment, and acoustics qualities, the Colosseum has hosted many world-renowned artists, including Céline Dion, who opened this hall in 2003.
    • With 16 years of intense activity that have seen Cher, Bette Midler, Elton John and Rod Stewart, to name a few, Caesars Entertainment decided at the end of 2018 to renovate and modernize the Colosseum once Celine Dion's residency was completed in July 2019.
    • The objective: complete the renovation and technical upgrading work within a timeframe of only seven (7) weeks.

  • VIP experience

    • A new design has been created for the existing VIP section at orchestra level and the existing seats have been modernized.
    • A brand-new VIP section with bottle service is added at the foot of the stage for greater proximity with the artists. Located on a new stage lift, this section can offer a sitting experience, on ultra-comfortable seats, or a standing experience in the heart of the action.

  • New stage lift

    • The front part of the orchestra – which is also the new VIP area – now features a stage lift that allows the level of this section to vary, thus offering a sitting or flat floor configuration.
    • Loading Capacity: 183,000 lbs static/61,000 lbs live.

  • Stage equipment

    • Sound, lighting and video systems have all been upgraded or replaced by state-of-the-art equipment.
    • A new 5.5 mm LED screen measuring 110'-0'' X 36'-0''replaces the original display and doubles the resolution, thus improving the transmission of stage performances.
