The Tropicana Casino in Las Vegas, USA, will be demolished on October 9th at 2:30 AM (October 10th at 6:30 PM Japan time).
Opened in 1957, this long-established casino underwent several expansions over the years. Eventually owned by Bally’s, an agreement was made to construct the new headquarters for the Oakland Athletics on the site after its demolition. The casino closed on April 2 of this year, and demolition work has been underway.
Controlled Demolition is handling the explosive demolition work, with asbestos removal already completed. Approximately one ton of explosives will be used, detonating simultaneously. The Paradise Tower, a 23-story building, has 220 explosive charges placed in drilled holes, while the Club Tower has 1,130.
A ceremonial event with 555 drones and fireworks will start at 2:00 AM on the same day (6:00 PM Japan time). This is the first building demolition in the Strip area since the Riviera in 2016. The demolition will be live-streamed, with the building expected to collapse within about 22 seconds after the detonation button is pressed.
