Sports Illustrated broke the news yesterday that Starrcast II will be commencing at the infamous Caesars Palace in Las Vegas during Memorial Day weekend.
The first Starrcast which took place in the suburb of Schaumberg, IL outside of Chicago during All In last Labor Day and the the second will be just a 25 minute walk to the Las Vegas strip from where All Elite Wrestling’s Double Or Nothing will be taking place on May 25th at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Caesars Palace was the location for WrestleMania IX and Conrad Thompson commented on the location being a reason to uphold some of the history with wrestling and its connection to the Sin City:
“We’re paying homage to the history of wrestling, and a large part of Starrcast is nostalgia, so Caesars Palace is the right fit,” said Thompson. “It just makes sense.
“And Tuscany Suites and Casino is our official Starrcast hotel, offering fans suites as low as $79 per night without a daily resort fee, and that is a bargain on a holiday weekend in Las Vegas. Tuscany will also host events each day including Superstarr Breakfasts, a Kick-Off Party, Jam Session, Video Game Tournament, Cosplay Contest, Karaoke, Wrap Up Party, and so much more.”
