BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, announced a partnership with Tailgate Beach Club at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, Las Vegas’ newest sports and pop culture dayclub. Conceived by Clique Hospitality Group, the sports and pop culture poolside paradise will feature the BetMGM brand, enhancing the way fans experience live sports in a one-of-a-kind destination on the Las Vegas Strip.

As part of the collaboration, BetMGM will have a prominent presence throughout Tailgate Beach Club, including an on-site activation team to introduce new players to the BetMGM app, along with digital and static signage featuring live odds displays. The venue will serve as a gathering place for BetMGM players, with watch parties centered on marquee matchups and major sporting events. The activation builds on BetMGM’s broader presence across the Las Vegas Strip, which includes nine retail Sports Books at MGM Resorts properties.

“Tailgate Beach Club’s mission of blending the energy of Las Vegas dayclubs and sports into a signature venue goes straight to the heart of BetMGM’s DNA — creating legendary moments players can’t get anywhere else. This opportunity allows us to deliver incredible memories for fans, introduce our product to new audiences, and reinforce our Las Vegas roots,” said Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM.

“Tailgate Beach Club was built to bring that game day energy into a setting you can only find in Las Vegas. Partnering with BetMGM takes that experience to another level, giving fans more ways to engage with the action while enjoying the atmosphere, service and entertainment we’re creating at Tailgate,” said Andy Masi, Founder of Clique Hospitality.
