Pardon my ignorance but can you elaborate? I will be in Las Vegas for a week towards the end of May. I might want to check things out.

I was at Bally's in March. The Jubilee Theater hasn't been used for anything since last summer's WWTBAM tapings, and there were no plans to use it any time soon. Maybe something came up that would be a better use for that huge space. A tent in the parking lot in August seems like a weird choice for a studio.

The only thing there at that time to check out is a possible tent going up behind Bally's where the new "studio" will be. They tape from mid-July though August, and maybe a week or two into September depending on various things that might come up. Last season at Bally's was inside the casino, inside the Jubilee Theater.
I have no idea why they would go outside, that makes no sense at all for so many reasons.

The ONLY advantage (and I'm using that term loosely) to this is that the contestants can blame their perspiration on the 95+ degree F and not on the nerves of being under "the lights."
I know I was a nervous wreck and schvitzing like none other on my tape day, even though the theater was relatively cool.
Advice to contestants next season: find and wear a good deodorant and wear a color that might not show your sweat stains.
