The world-famous Chippendales celebrated the VIP Grand Opening in their new home at The LINQ Hotel + Experience in Las Vegas with an unforgettable night of music, muscle, and plenty of man candy on Galentine’s Day, Thursday, February 13, 2025.
Chippendales kicked off the evening with a lively celebration at CHAYO Mexican Kitchen + Tequila Bar. The party was packed with excitement, featuring delicious Mexican cuisine, signature cocktails, and nonstop fun. The cast took the festivities to the next level by hopping on CHAYO’s iconic mechanical bull, who donned his own custom-made Chippendales cuffs and collars, adding a playful twist to the night. The high-energy vibe set the stage for an unforgettable evening, as fans, VIPs, and the world-famous Chippendales marked the start of a new era for the legendary Las Vegas show.
A star-studded red-carpet event followed, featuring celebrities, VIPs, and fans eager to mark the occasion. The evening culminated in a sold-out performance in their new home, The Mat Franco Theater, with the Chippendales delivering their signature blend of scream-inducing entertainment and charisma to an enthusiastic crowd, cementing their place as one of Vegas’ hottest attractions.
Some of the famous faces who took part in the celebration included Mat Franco (America’s Got Talent winner and Vegas headliner). Franco delighted the audience by welcoming the Chippendales to his theater with a special champagne popping magic trick and his own “shirt rip” revealing his abs and the signature Chippendales bowtie.
Other guests included: Delious Kennedy (from the Grammy winning group ALL-4-ONE); Comedian ANT (from NBC’s The Tonight Show, VH1’s Celebrity Fit Club and Logo’s US of ANT); Wendy “The Snapple Lady” Kaufman (Snapple’s spokesperson); Murray Sawchuck (Magician/Comedian/Las Vegas Headliner); singers Jasmine Trias (American Idol) and Ben Stone; Jennifer Romas (Dancer, Producer); International Drag Superstars Bryce Mansfield and Roxy Brooks-Lord; Ricardo Laguna (BMX Star and TV Personality); Colin Cloud (Mentalist, headliner at Harrah’s Las Vegas); and Mocha (from ROUGE: The Sexiest Show in Vegas); among others.
