Wynn is about to unveil a new high limit space and it’s as glorious as you might expect.<\/p>\n

The new high limit room, where the B Bar used to be (a new B Bar recently opened a few feet away), opens Nov. 18, 2025, but we are not a fan of waiting for official openings. We stick our camera in places it is not supposed to be, which only sounds dirty because you were not raised properly.<\/p>\n

Here’s a sneak peek into the new high limit room at Wynn. As with most things at Wynn, it’s better in person.<\/p>\n

Casinos use a variety of techniques to persuade players to gamble longer. Some use go-go dancers, some pump in scents, Wynn uses lavish trappings and the best service anywhere.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We asked Wynn for some highlights and tidbits, and they actually provided some. Which is weird, because most casinos hate it when you don’t wait until their official openings or announcements. Wynn, however, is not populated by morons.<\/p>\n

The new high limit space was designed by Wynn’s Eye Candy Czar, Todd-Avery Lenahan. Lenahan is like the Willy Wonka of Passementerie, but without all the disappearances. (Sorry, we have to include some references only he’ll get. He once made the mistake of saying he enjoys our work.)<\/p>\n

Lenahan is known not only for his keen design sensibilities, but also his singular way of describing his work. It might be his people, but he signs off on it.<\/p>\n

Example: “The concept of Wynn’s new High Limit Salon is an imaginative evocation of the luster and sparkle of the cinematic private gaming salons captured in Bond films, framed by a façade of polished bronze, intricate cut glass and silk portieres.”<\/p>\n

You thought we were kidding? We only recognize half of those words, and what in the hell is going on with that “ç,” anyway?<\/p>\n

\"\"
Fun fact: Wynn Las Vegas has about 14 square miles of high limit salons.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There’s a lot to love about this next part: “Lenahan’s objective in designing the space was to dress the salon in a stunning tuxedo instead of expecting the guest to do so themselves.”<\/p>\n

That’s straight-up badass. It’s the vibe of a tux without the pretense or confining oppression of wearing a socially-sanctioned straitjacket with cufflinks.<\/p>\n

Here’s more about the new high limit room: “The architecture and outfitting of the space is crowned by a luminous vaulted ceiling of polished zebrawood and surrounded in piano-finish mahogany and black Thai silk walls. Crowning the space are a series of 24 karat gilded bronze d’ore and crystal features commissioned by Paris’ most storied lighting ateliers who were the exclusive restorers for the historic chandeliers in the Palace of Versailles.”<\/p>\n

That’s pretty much exactly how we were going to describe it.<\/p>\n

\"\"
For a fleeting moment, you thought we’d make it through one story without mentioning our high school band. Do you know this blog at all?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What else can we cut and paste from Wynn that gives the appearance we understand what the hell they’re saying?<\/p>\n

“The hand-cut crystal bar and its monumental statement pieces are comprised of more than 3,000 Czech-leaded crystal prisms in gold settings, inspired by a rare 1929 bracelet designed by Cartier’s Jeanne Toussaint. The furnishings are upholstered in rare cuts of crocodile, eel skin and 24 karat gilded hides, while the gaming tables are fashioned with classic British green felts and framed with more than 8,000 hand-cut abalone shells.”<\/p>\n

Oh, crap, we probably should’ve stopped before they got to the part about crocodile and eel hides. We assume they just forgot the word “faux.”<\/p>\n

Nobody’s perfect.<\/p>\n

\"\"
No, that sculpture was not inspired by discarded chewing gum, you rube. The work is “Gumscape With Tension,” by Lucia Valdes-Torrealba (Chilean, 1988- ).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Anyway, the new high limit space looks incredible, despite the fact we couldn’t get into the space during our visit.<\/p>\n

The new B Bar is also fantastic (and has some video poker at the bar, unlike the new high limit space), by the way. We meant to do a story about it, but we are very busy and self-important, leaving very little time for frivolous activities like “earning our obscenely exorbitant compensation.”<\/p>\n

We’ll just let Todd-Avery Lenahan do the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n
