A last minute news conference by Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak featured rainbows, frolicking unicorns and uncharacteristically upbeat news!<\/p>\n

The Governor says Las Vegas will reopen fully on June 1, 2021, and social distancing restrictions will be lifted May 1, 2021.<\/p>\n

This is welcome news for a tourism-centric town hard hit by the economic fallout of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

\"Vegas
One year later. Las Vegas casinos reopened after the shutdown on June 4, 2020.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here’s the Governor’s thread on the Twitters<\/a>. Wait, you’re not on Twitter? What do you with all that spare time and mental wellness?<\/p>\n

Anyway, Governor Sisolak said a lot of other words in his new conference on April 13, 2021, but we sort of stopped listening after “fully opening June 1.”<\/p>\n

We did hear the part where there’s no end date in sight for the mask mandate. At this point, we’ll take what we can get.<\/p>\n

In other good news, May 1 will mark additional lifting of restrictions, including the potential  return of self-service buffets.<\/p>\n

Yes, in Las Vegas, that’s a big deal.<\/p>\n

\"\"
There are only two buffets open at the moment, at Cosmo and South Point. Expect that to change.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nightclubs and dayclubs will be able to open. They’re sort of open now, but more like lounges.<\/p>\n

As of May 1, dance floors will return. It seems backing it up will be back, if you get our drift.<\/p>\n

Hot tubs and spas will be reopened at gyms, body art and piercing will return and Costco can do food samples again.<\/p>\n

\"tattoo\"
Tats need to come back, stat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As of May 1, restaurants will be able to book bigger groups (from a limit of six to a max of 10).<\/p>\n

Most importantly, it looks like lap dances are back!<\/p>\n

Here’s more<\/a> from Clark County, wherein Las Vegas sits.<\/p>\n

Overall, things are progressing slowly but surely, and we’re about to see some big changes in the next couple of months.<\/p>\n

Vegas won’t really be Vegas again until the mask mandate goes away, but given the past year, any return to normalcy is more than welcome.<\/p>\n
