If your holiday season needs a little more yee-haw and a little less Hallmark, good news: Santa’s Saloon is officially OPEN at Palms Casino Resort. After previewing the concept earlier this month (ICYMI: Here), the rowdy Western Christmas pop-up is now welcoming guests Wednesday–Sunday through December 28.
Located on the casino floor near Scotch 80 Prime, Santa’s Saloon is a full-blown holiday misadventure — part cowboy bar, part winter chaos, totally Vegas. Expect two immersive spaces (a rustic saloon and a Frozen Rockies lodge), swinging doors, photo ops like Naughty Jail and Frozen in Ice, and enough over-the-top décor to make Rudolph blush.
Performances, Cocktails & Shenanigans
The entertainment is pure irreverence: burlesque-y moments, tap-dancing elves, cowboy toasts, and a cast of slightly unhinged Christmas characters roaming the room. This is not Silent Night.
The cocktail lineup delivers laughs and a buzz:
-
The Good, The Bad & the Naughty (rum + Chambord + lime + blackberries)
-
Ain’t That a Kick in the Nutcracker (Tito’s + Red Bull + mint)
-
Elf’d Up (Casamigos + grapefruit + ginger + mint)
Beer in glass boots and bullhorns? Obviously.
Holiday Bites Worth Getting on the Naughty List For
-
Mrs. Claus Empanadas (three ways)
-
Waffle Fry Nachos
-
Pretzel Tree
-
Wings with a Hot Sauce Fountain
-
Jack Daniel’s Bread Pudding
-
Strawberries & Cream Night Cap with an edible Santa hat
Even the mocktails come with attitude.
