Make Ultimo Your Early Holiday Gift

If you've been really good this year (and, we mean saintly good), you may want to add this to your holiday wish list: from December 9-11, The Venetian Las Vegas plays host to the city's most decadent culinary event, Ultimo - A Weekend of Excellence. For its fourth iteration, Ultimo's itinerary (with the theme "Le Grand Voyage") will include extraordinary experiences like a Belvedere and caviar welcome reception, a Rolls-Royce driving experience, a hot-air balloon ride over Red Rock National Recreation Area, a Louis Vuitton Fashion Experience, and the "Grand Banquet" (photo above) featuring an international lineup of chefs that includes Thomas Keller (French Laundry, Bouchon, Per Se), Curtis Stone (Maude, Gwen), and Ming Tsai (Blue Ginger, Blue Dragon), just to name a few.

Guests can choose from two packages - The Luxury Suite Package ($4,551 per couple plus tax and fees) or The Renaissance Suite Package ($5,751 per couple plus tax and fees) and bookings can be made at venetian.com/ultimo.
