Palms Casino Resort, The Pearl Concert Theater
Las Vegas, Nevada


Auerbach Pollock Friedlander collaborated with Pfeiffer Partners on the 2,115-seat multi-use headliner room The Pearl at the Palms Hotel Casino. The firm was the theatre designer for the project and advised on the rigging systems design. The Pearl is part of the Palms’ $600 million expansion and was designed specifically for rock music in the style of a traditional large performing arts center theatre, complete with multi-level lobbies and VIP amenities. Auerbach Pollock Friedlander worked closely with architects Pfeiffer Partners and KGA to develop plans for the stage and backstage facilities, as well as the audience chamber configuration, including all seating and VIP areas for the venue. In addition to rock concerts, The Pearl regularly hosts televised Ultimate Fighting Championship matches, stand-up comedy, fashion shows and other special events.
