Bruno Mars Day Declared in Vegas: Parade, Street Naming, and $1 Million Donation
Bruno Mars was honored in Las Vegas with a parade and a street named after him, capping it off with a generous donation to a local children's hospital.
Bruno Mars launched The Romantic Tour with a sold-out show at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, playing to over 60,000 fans.
The performance featured 25 tracks, including five songs with his Silk Sonic partner, Anderson .Paak, who joined him onstage.
Friday was a day-long celebration for Bruno Mars in Sin City, ahead of his Romantic Tour launch.
According to Bill Hornbuckle, CEO and president of MGM Resorts International, Mars has become an integral part of Las Vegas, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors over the past decade with his performances at Bellagio, MGM Grand, and his residency at Dolby Live.
Bruno Mars started the day with a parade down the Strip in a vintage convertible, celebrating his contributions to Las Vegas entertainment. April 10 was officially declared Bruno Mars Day.
The Grammy-winning artist received the key to the Las Vegas Strip, and Park Avenue outside Park MGM was renamed Bruno Mars Drive, putting him in the company of Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin.
Giving back to the community, Mars pledged a $1 million donation to the future Intermountain Health Nevada Children’s Hospital.
The Romantic Tour continues with another performance at Allegiant Stadium. This tour marks Bruno's first trek in nearly a decade and his first time headlining North American stadiums.
Bruno’s The Romantic album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
