The Culinary union said Tuesday it has reached a tentative labor agreement with the operators of The Venetian and Palazzo, a major step toward the first union contract for more than 4,000 hospitality workers at the two casino-resorts.

Members must ratify the five-year collective bargaining agreement in a vote that will be scheduled soon, according to the union.

The property joins nearly all Strip resorts, many of which settled employment terms with the state’s largest bargaining group during negotiations last fall and earlier this year, in becoming unionized.

It’s also a historic moment for The Venetian, which was a decades-long holdout as the Strip’s only non-union property when it was controlled by Las Vegas Sands Corp. and hotelier Sheldon Adelson, who died in 2021.
