Luke Combs and Opry Entertainment Group are expanding their Category 10 restaurant, bar and event venue concept from Nashville’s Lower Broadway to the Las Vegas strip.
Set to open in the fall of 2026, the three-story, 34,000-square-foot Category 10 location with frontage on the Las Vegas strip will be housed in the Flamingo Las Vegas resort.

Colin Reed, executive chairman of OEG parent company Ryman Hospitality Properties, said in a statement that with Combs’ international appeal, securing the right Las Vegas location for Category 10 has been a priority since they announced the partnership in 2023.
“The United Kingdom ranks as the leading market for international visitors to Las Vegas outside North America,” his statement continued. “Combined with the UK’s continued embrace of country music and Luke, this is an ideal moment to bring Category 10 to one of the world’s great entertainment playgrounds.”
Combs, who is slated to headline 20-plus dates in 2026 across Europe and North America, including being the first country music artist to headline three consecutive nights at Wembley Stadium in the U.K., said in a statement he is “stoked about having a second Category 10 location.”

“2026 was already going to be an awesome year, but this takes it to the next level. I can’t wait for Bootleggers to have their own place to party on The Strip.”
What will the Las Vegas Category 10 consist of?
The venue will contain multiple experiences inside the venue influenced by Combs’ music. They include:
Hurricane Hall – First floor of the venue that will include the main dining hall, three bars, a central stage and dance floor to include immersive light and sound experiences, state-of-the-art video features collectively set to deliver a “concert-quality” atmosphere.
