Palms Casino Resort has begun projecting guest photos across its 55-story Tall Wall sign. The off-Strip property calls the new activation "55 Stories of Fame." It marks the first rollout tied to a broader rebrand, timed to the resort's recent 25th anniversary. The display debuted last week during a private dinner hosted by Vegas Girls Events at Scotch 80 Prime, the resort's steakhouse. Attendees became the first guests to see their images lit up on the towering digital billboard. Palms has not yet detailed how often the activation will run or who will qualify to take part.

The Tall Wall Activation: What We Know So Far

The Tall Wall is a vertical LED display visible from parts of the Strip and nearby areas. This activation lets select visitors see their own photos beamed across the massive sign. It first appeared during a Girls Dinner event hosted by Vegas Girls Events inside Scotch 80 Prime. Guests at that dinner became the first to have their images featured on the display. Resort officials describe the moment as highly shareable. Palms has kept several details under wraps for now. Officials have not said how often the activation will occur or which guests will be eligible. It also has not confirmed whether the experience could eventually become paid.

This Is That VEGAS: Palms' New Brand Campaign

The image activation serves as the first public expression of Palms' new "This is That VEGAS" brand platform. Palms developed the campaign alongside Los Angeles-based creative agency BRAINS. It aims to refresh the resort's identity, which first opened in 2001.

Crystal Robinson-Wesley, vice president of marketing and entertainment at Palms, addressed the launch in a statement. She said Las Vegas is all about unforgettable moments. Robinson-Wesley added that is exactly what the resort is creating with 55 Stories of Fame. The broader "This is That VEGAS" campaign includes a new brand identity, a promotional film, and an integrated marketing push. Palms plans to roll out additional guest experiences tied to the campaign in the coming months.

Palms Casino Resort's Tribal Ownership and History

Palms and its adjacent condo-hotel tower, Palms Place, are owned by the San Manuel Gaming and Hospitality Authority. The authority represents the Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation. In 2021, the tribe bought the property from Red Rock Resorts for $650 million.

That sale made Palms the first Las Vegas resort fully owned by a Native American tribe.

The resort was originally built by the Maloof family and opened in November 2001. Minority owners at the time included Station Casinos and the Greenspun Corporation. The Tall Wall tower has long been associated with the property's nightlife and entertainment offerings.
