Yes. Chase had a similar pop-up lounge at Aria last year, and the line was regularly two hours or longer.

Unlike Chase, it looks like Amex accepts advance reservations (through Resy).

You can bring one guest if you have a Platinum Card and three if you have a Centurion Card.


Amex's press release answers a lot of questions:

American Express Debuts 1850 by American Express®, a Limited-Time Pop-Up Destination at the Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas

Opening just ahead of the Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix, Platinum Card® and Centurion Card® Members can enjoy premium hospitality and curated programming during Las Vegas’ highly anticipated November and December events

NEW YORK — American Express today announced 1850 by American Express®, a pop-up destination exclusively for Consumer and Business Platinum Card® Members and Centurion Card® Members on the Las Vegas strip. Located in ARIA Resort & Casino, a property in The Hotel Collection, 1850 by American Express® will open the week before Formula 1 Heineken Las Vegas Grand Prix on Nov. 13 through Dec. 171.

1850 by American Express® provides a place to relax, recharge and enjoy premium hospitality. Open seven days a week from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m., the space will feature complimentary light bites, a specialty cocktail bar with complimentary drink tickets2,3, DJ sets, a photobooth and special giveaways. There will also be an MGM Resorts Concierge available for guests in the space to assist with reservations and bookings4.

Throughout its five-week run, 1850 by American Express® will also feature a dynamic lineup of exclusive, ticketed experiences tied to exciting events happening across the city, such as F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, NBA Emirates Cup and more. Ticketed events will be announced throughout the duration of the pop-up and will be available for Platinum Card® and Centurion Members to purchase on Resy5.
