Fremont Street Experience announced they will reopen the pedestrian mall and access to adjacent hotel casinos and retail stores when they reopen on 3 June at 9 a.m.

Leading up to the reopening of FSE’s casino partners, the world’s largest single video screen, Viva Vision, will display a 144-hour countdown that will conclude at the exact moment gaming operations restart at 12:01 a.m. on 4 June.

Adhering to the guidelines put forth by the Global Association for the Attractions Industry (IAPPA), SlotZilla zipline will also reopen in downtown Las Vegas on 4 June at 4 p.m.

As downtown Las Vegas prepares to reopen, FSE will continue to employ robust cleaning procedures designed to mitigate the spread of the virus based on guidance of Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak and public health officials. To ensure the safety of visitors and employees, FSE will disinfect the pedestrian mall, parking garage and SlotZilla towers twice a day with environmentally friendly and highly effective products that are immediately safe for human contact.

“The health and well-being of our guests, tenants, resort partners and employees remain a top priority to Fremont Street Experience,” said Patrick Hughes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Fremont Street Experience. “Although experiences will be altered to adjust to this new normal, we are committed to reinvigorating downtown Las Vegas and helping make a positive impact in the community. We look forward to welcoming guests back to Fremont Street Experience soon.”

Those of you who have ever been to Fremont Street are probably wondering what I am wondering... How in the heck is this going to work?

#3 of the "Reopening Guidance: Considerations for the Attractions Industry" says "Manage density of people within the facility to keep people or family units that have been isolating together 6 feet (2 meters) apart. Physical distancing guidelines may vary by region and can be reduced by wearing of masks/ face coverings—ensure your plan is aligned with local official guidance."

There are wall to wall people in the pedestrian mall. Fine, the 6 feet distance can be reduced by wearing mask, but if half the people I see in grocery stores aren't wearing masks, what makes the Fremont Street Experience operators think Vegas party animals are going to be wearing masks at all times or at all?

This goes for any attraction, any event that gathers people, etc., that is opening back up soon. Best of luck to them all to make everyone follow the "new normal" rules.

That almost sounds like an oxymoron. Am I right, or am I a moron? lol

I'm interested in how they will enforce said guidelines, or if they will at all.

As I recall, at the beginning of all this their Mayor essentially offered the city up as a "control group". I don't really get the vibe that she has the wellbeing of the city's residents or the city's visitors at heart.

Yes, it's interesting, here are some options! I wonder what will happen next! But as a result, the finale should be cool)))

It certainly is unlike anything I ever watched, talk about a cliffhanger!

Whatever happened to "no take-backs"?

Myself, I am still fine with hunkering down and sticking to only what is necessary. I am an introvert and this is my time to shine, I've been training for this my whole life!

Disclaimer: I will be at the first Greta Van Fleet concert possible though.
