Voltaire Web site<\/a>.<\/p>\nKylie Minogue recently announced a 20-show residency for the Voltaire space, which, to pretty much everyone’s surprise, broke the Internet.<\/p>\n
Voltaire’s official name is Voltaire Belle de Nuit, a French term which roughly translates as “a place for divas to make a shit-ton of cash.”<\/p>\n
Voltaire has a capacity of about 1,000, so it’s a perfect “intimate” space for those who aren’t exactly Adele, all due respect.<\/p>\n
Here’s more about Voltaire, “Voltaire is the uniquely inspired vision of producer Michael Gruber: an interactive night out with some of the world’s biggest superstars in an intimate, 1,000-seat setting where anything can happen and no two evenings are the same. Voltaire is the pregame, main event, and late-night after party rolled into one—an experience currently unmatched in Las Vegas that unlocks a new evening out that is elevated, transformative, but most of all, fun.”<\/p>\n
Yes, Voltaire uses the phrase “world’s biggest superstars” rather liberally here, but you get the picture.<\/p>\n
It’s all a little confusing, because shows actually seem to take place inside the Amber Lounge<\/a> at Voltaire Belle de Nuit at Venetian. There are other Amber Lounges, apparently, and it’s unclear if the name was inspired by the alerts or what mosquitos were preserved in prior to becoming dinosaurs in “Jurassic Park.”<\/p>\nWe feel the need to share Voltaire’s dress code policy: “The dress code for Voltaire is chic and elegant. We want you to look your best and feel confident in our exclusive venue. Upscale, fashionable cocktail or business casual attire required. The following attire is prohibited: No torn, cut-off, baggy attire, or stained clothing. No offensive prints. No tank tops, chains, swimwear, or robes\/towels. No shorts. No athletic wear, including but not limited to, gym shorts, sweatpants, hats, etc. No work boots or sandals. Management reserves all rights to respectfully decline entry if guest attire does not meet a minimum acceptable standard.”<\/p>\n
Now, you know one of the main reasons we won’t be attending this show, second only to Christina Aguilera’s singing.<\/p>\n
Christina Aguilera has given Las Vegas mixed messages in the past. In a 2018 interview, she told Entertainment Weekly, “I’ve never been a Vegas-y kind of girl [laughs].”<\/p>\n
