UNO, the beloved card game famous for its bold colors and lively gameplay, was expected to step into a new spotlight—Las Vegas from July 18 to 20. Mattel wanted to introduce the first-ever UNO Social Club inside the Palms Casino Resort. The classic game is meant to be a fully immersive, in-person experience. Forget the poker chips—this isn’t about gambling. Instead, it’s all about fun, nostalgia, and social connection.
Expectations
The UNO Social Clubs are expected to transform a luxury suite into a vibrant game haven. Decked out in bright, UNO-inspired décor, the suite features private gaming tables, a personal host, or “UNO dealer.” There is also a lineup of new game formats, including UNO Golf, UNO Teams, and UNO Show Em No Mercy. UNO Social Clubs promise guests a private bowling alley—all wrapped in the playful style that makes UNO iconic.
Updates on Vegas
Unfortunately, UNO isn’t coming to Vegas as we had expected. Mattel has many events scheduled for other cities, demonstrating that UNO Social Clubs need to be shared and experienced. Following the morning of July 16, Mattel has stated in an Instagram post that they can’t continue in Vegas. They need security to improve first.
Where to Find UNO
There’s more to come. Mattel is launching a pop-up tour of the UNO Social Club across major cities. These include New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Austin, and Atlanta. The events will take place in stylish bars and lounges, featuring UNO-themed cocktails, group competitions, and backdrops designed for Instagram.
In this new chapter, UNO is moving beyond the living room and embracing a broader public experience through UNO Social Clubs. This serves as a refreshing reminder. The best memories are not only created during the game itself, but also through the laughter, connections, and friendly rivalries it fosters.
