The Mirage’s expiration date officially has come into view: July 17, 2024.

The landmark Strip resort is shutting down that day, to be remade as Hard Rock Las Vegas by spring 2027.

Lupo said the hotel will close entirely on July 17, and reopen by the end of May 2027. It is to be a full shutdown and reopening, not a “phased-in” restart. Plans are still in the rendering stage, but will include 25 restaurants (five at the new hotel tower near the Strip) and a 5,000-seat theater.

Qatar on Tuesday laid the foundation stone for its pavilion at EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan, aiming to further fortify the comprehensive strategic bilateral partnership, which has been flourishing for more than 50 years.

The pavilion was collaboratively designed by Qatar Museums and Kengo Kuma and Associates after extensive visits to Doha by the designers.

The pavilion’s design is inspired by a fusion of Qatari and Japanese cultures, particularly the shared elements such as the wood used in the building of traditional dhows, the wood used in the construction of traditional Japanese houses and the fabric used in their interiors. The total area of the pavilion is estimated at 1,292sqm.
