Mandalay Bay

Strip casino hotel

Mandalay Bay is a large resort and casino on the Las Vegas Strip, opened in 1999.

The name evokes exotic luxury, referencing Mandalay, Myanmar.

The property became internationally known after a 2017 mass shooting when a gunman fired from its upper floors onto a crowd at a nearby music festival, killing sixty people—the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
