LAS VEGAS (April 15, 2019) – ESSENTIALS and Exhilarate 108, owned and operated by Marshall Retail Group, are now open inside The STRAT Hotel, Casino & SkyPod. The newly-opened spaces will reflect the fresh and elevated look of the iconic landmark located at the north end of the Las Vegas Strip.

In alignment with The STRAT rebranding, the souvenir shop will include a full product line of STRAT-centric merchandise including T-shirts, hats, coffee mugs and more.
