“I’m so excited to bring
big cats back to Las Vegas and especially the famed Las Vegas Strip
where majestic white tigers truly first gained worldwide attention.
Debuting ‘Wild Illusions’ at the Riviera Hotel &
Casino is an amazing highlight in my career,” said Arthur. “I know the
Riviera is a pet friendly hotel so I’m thrilled that includes cats of
all breeds and sizes.”
Arthur is a leading
advocate of preserving endangered species and for the humane and proper
care of all animals of the world. To that end, 100 percent of the
proceeds from merchandise sales at his show will be donated to various
animal care and conservation programs, animal sanctuaries and developing
educational programs in schools to create
awareness for endangered animal preservation.
“Magic has been a
mainstay in our entertainment family for quite some time. The
combination of Dirk’s magnificent illusions featuring big cats and the
Riviera’s rich entertainment history will create a stellar,
one-of-a-kind experience for our guests,” said Alex Rangel, Riviera
Hotel & Casino’s Vice President of Marketing and Entertainment.
“We’re honored to bring this degree of entertainment to the north end of
the Strip.”
Dirk Arthur’s Wild Illusions! will run Saturday through Thursday at 7 p.m. (dark Fridays).
