Skyfall Lounge

Skyfall Lounge

Skyfall Panoramic Bar & Lounge, the 64th-floor view bar atop W Las Vegas (the former Delano) at Mandalay Bay, is temporarily closed for a refresh that began July 20, 2026, with the reopening targeted for early October 2026.

Is Skyfall Lounge Worth It? Honest Review

Skyfall is temporarily closed. The bar went dark on Monday, July 20, 2026 for what MGM Resorts called a comprehensive refresh, announced a week earlier on July 13, and the reopening is targeting early October 2026. Coverage differs on how firm that target is, from a stated October 4 return to a looser early-October window, so treat it as a plan rather than a promise and confirm before you build an evening around it.

The venue is now billed as Skyfall Panoramic Bar & Lounge, on the 64th floor of W Las Vegas. That is the tower most visitors still know as the Delano - rebranded on December 18, 2024 and standing inside the Mandalay Bay complex at the south end of the Strip. The view carries the room: the Strip running north, the Luxor beam alongside, and a wraparound terrace built for the sunset hour.

Hours before the refresh ran 5 p.m. to midnight Sunday through Thursday, and 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday and Saturday, with a 21+ door and nightlife attire. There was no cover, though reservable tables carried minimums on busy nights, and a resident DJ picked up as the evening went on. Assume that shape returns, then verify it, because a refresh of this size can move hours, menu and table policy.

One practical note for the reopening: the 64th floor is reached from the W's own lobby elevators rather than Mandalay Bay's. Arrive 30 to 45 minutes before sunset if the terrace rail matters to you. The old Delano-era page for the bar is gone, so anything still circulating under that name is out of date.

Insider tip Skip Skyfall on any trip before October 2026, and check that it has actually reopened before you plan around it. Once it is back, the old routine should hold: ride the W tower's lobby elevators rather than Mandalay Bay's, arrive 30 to 45 minutes before sunset, and claim a spot on the terrace rail before the DJ hour fills it.

Frequently asked questions

Is Skyfall open right now?

No. The bar closed on July 20, 2026 for a refresh that MGM Resorts announced on July 13, and the reopening is targeting early October 2026. Some reports name October 4, others only say early October, so confirm it is open before you plan an evening around it.

Is it still at the Delano?

Same tower, new name: the Delano became W Las Vegas on December 18, 2024, inside the Mandalay Bay complex. Skyfall keeps its 64th-floor perch there and is now billed as Skyfall Panoramic Bar & Lounge, reached through the W's own lobby elevators.

What were the hours before the closure?

Sunday through Thursday it ran 5 p.m. to midnight, and Friday and Saturday 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. Those are pre-refresh hours only. The reopening schedule has not been published, so check it once the bar is back.

What was the bar like before the refresh?

Cocktails and the terrace carried it, with the Peter Rabbit as the signature drink, a resident DJ later in the evening, and the sunset as the main event. The renovation updates the room to the W's design language; the concept and the Skyfall name carry over.

What's the dress code?

Nightlife attire, with a 21+ door. No beachwear or athletic wear, and people dress up more on DJ nights. Assume the same standard after reopening until the venue says otherwise.

Is there a cover charge?

Historically no: walk-in for the bar and terrace, with reservable tables carrying minimums on peak nights. The refresh could change that, so treat it as a pre-closure baseline rather than a promise.
