MGM National Harbor Announces Bruno Mars Concert in December

Four-time GRAMMY Award-winning musician Bruno Mars will be one of the first entertainers to take the stage at The Theater at MGM National Harbor, the new 3,000-seat venue coming to MGM National Harbor, just across the river from Alexandria.

Mars will perform an up-close-and-personal show for his fans Tuesday, Dec. 27, MGM National Harbor announced. The performance kicks off a long-term partnership between Mars and MGM Resorts International as he is scheduled to host shows at both The Theater at MGM National Harbor and the company's new Park Theater in Las Vegas.

"As one of the best-selling pop artists of all-time, Bruno Mars sets the precedent for the A-list entertainment we've planned for this stunning new resort," said Bill Boasberg, general manager of MGM National Harbor in a news release announcing the concert. "MGM Resorts delivers the biggest and most sought-after names in entertainment and sports and we can't wait to bring that level of excitement to the East Coast."

The Theater at MGM National Harbor will offer a concert experience "unlike any other in the DMV region," giving fans the opportunity to see Mars in an intimate setting. Mars' hits include "Uptown Funk," "Just the Way You Are," and "Locked Out of Heaven."

MGM National Harbor will open Thursday, Dec. 8.
