For the second year in a row, Playboy Founder Hugh Hefner traveled to Las Vegas with his girlfriends Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson to celebrate his birthday in the Fantasy Tower at the Palms Casino Resort. Hef will turn 82 on April 9, 2008.

The festivities kicked off in the Playboy Club with a table dedication to Hef. This ultra-exclusive VIP area features a custom collage of photos highlighting Hef’s favorite moments in Vegas. From there the party moved up to Moon Nightclub where Hef and his girlfriends were greeted with cheers from the crowd as the DJ played “The Girls Next Door” theme song. Hef was later presented with a giant strawberry shortcake decorated with a photo of Hef, Holly, Bridget and Kendra.

The Playboy Club, the first in more than two decades, located in the Palms' new Fantasy Tower, is part of a multi-faceted entertainment venue which also includes Moon nightclub and a Playboy store. The Playboy Club introduces a complete integration of lounging and gaming, which has never been attempted before in Las Vegas.

Hef and the girls stayed in the luxurious 9,000 square-foot Hugh M. Hefner Sky Villa. The two-story, Playboy themed suite boasts a 20-person outdoor whirlpool tub, an eight-foot round, rotating bed and an extensive collection of Playboy artwork selected by Mr. Hefner.
