Now, M life is easier to enjoy.
S
o the benefits of M life are pretty clear. And with a
simplified approach to Tier Credits, it’s even easier than
ever to see how the program is doing more for members.
One thing our members have mentioned to us is the desire for a
straightforward policy when it comes to how long their tier and
Tier Credits last.
Remember, you earn Tier Credits for virtually everything you
enjoy at M life resorts – accommodations, dining, gaming, spa,
and entertainment. The more Tier Credits you earn, the higher
your tier – and that means you enjoy greater benefits.
The rolling expiration date for tiers and Tier Credits
will be replaced with one set expiration date per year –
October 1. If you advance to a higher tier before that
date, you’ll enjoy those tier benefits for at least a year!

It’s all about the offer
W
hen our members speak,
we listen. So when you
said it’s all about the
offers, we revamped M life to
ensure more of your rewards are
directed to exclusive offers.
We’ve enhanced the program so
that the main focus is bringing
you the most compelling offers,
as often as possible. That means
you now enjoy the best deals at
the foremost destinations in Las
Vegas while still getting the most
rewards for your play.

F
or those of you who are cocktail connoisseurs – or who
would like to be – there’s no better M life Moment than
Mixology Training & Tasting at Monte Carlo.
Available to members at the Sapphire tier, you and four friends
will join the Director of Beverage for two hours, where you’ll
learn the secrets of incredible cocktails. From timeless classics
to modern favorites, the drinks you make here will definitely
ensure you’ll be the toast of your next party.
And since the best way to measure progress is by the glass,
you’ll also get to sip as you go. In other words, this is one
cocktail class that definitely makes the grade.
your haven
of relaxation
T
he Spa at ARIA is an expansive retreat of total
rejuvenation. And if you’re an M life member at the
Gold tier, you and a guest can enjoy it all to yourselves.
ARIA After-Dark spa retreat is an M life Moment that includes
full private access to the Spa at ARIA during the evening, after
it closes to the public. You and your guest will explore the full
range of treatment rooms, including the Shio Salt Room, the
heated stone Ganbanyoku Beds (the only of their kind in the
country), the rejuvenating therapy pool, and more.
And as a way of celebrating this most private of retreats,
complimentary hors d’oeuvres and champagne will enhance
your exclusive escape.
This incredible M life Moment is a spa experience unlike any
other. It is, quite possibly, the most rewarding way to relax.
M life Experience | MGM Resorts International®
T
he destinations of MGM Resorts International bring
you the best in live entertainment. From resident shows
to live concerts, there’s no better place to see it live.
For the second year in a row, the MGM Grand Garden Arena
plays host to the iHeartRadio Music Festival, an amazing twoday concert experience that brings together huge names like
Shakira, Aerosmith, Usher, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, and more.
This is the ultimate concert experience of the year, and it can
only be experienced at MGM Grand.
For entertainment of a different color, check out Blue Man
Group, now at Monte Carlo. This celebrated production is a
kaleidoscope of music, light, and sound – driven by three blue
men who never speak, but communicate volumes with their
percussive talent and puckish humor.
Also new is Zarkana™ – the newest spectacle by Cirque
du Soleil®. Showing at ARIA, this acrobatic rock opera is a
visual and auditory mash-up of incredible music and fascinating
feats of physical prowess. There’s a magician. Four sirens. Evil
mutants. And countless moments of pure amazement.
As an M life member, remember that you get priority ticket
reservations. And that makes it even easier to enjoy your next
once-in-a-lifetime entertainment experience.
