Planet Hollywood Resorts International today announced its debut in Tbilisi, Georgia, bringing its globally recognized, entertainment-driven hospitality brand to the market through a newly executed license agreement with Orbi Group and Block Group, in association with Iconic Entertainment.
This milestone project introduces the nation’s first fully integrated resort- anchored by Planet Hollywood’s signature fusion of cinematic energy, lifestyle, and immersive guest experiences.

Currently under construction in the heart of Tbilisi, the development is part of a transformative 1,200-room, two-tower luxury campus featuring a 500-room Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino and a 600-room Radisson Blu luxury hotel. The destination will include a 50,000-square-foot casino, a 4,000-seat entertainment and special events venue, more than 70,000 square feet of Harvey Nichols retail, and a curated mix of international dining, nightlife, and lifestyle offerings-establishing a new benchmark for destination-driven hospitality in one of Europe’s fastest-growing tourism markets.

The project is expected to create over 2,000 permanent jobs and serve as a powerful catalyst for economic growth, further elevating Tbilisi’s position on the global stage.

Set against dramatic hillsides and steeped in history, Tbilisi is a city where tradition and modern life converge with uncommon energy. Its hospitality, cultural depth, and accelerating international profile make it a natural home for a destination of this scale.

“This represents a defining step in the continued global evolution of the Planet Hollywood brand,” said Robert Earl, Founder of Planet Hollywood. “Tbilisi is a city with extraordinary character and momentum. Together with our partners, we are creating a destination that brings together entertainment, hospitality, and immersive experiences in a way that is both ambitious and authentic to the market.”

Tornike Janashvili, CEO of Block Group, said: “This is a pivotal moment for Tbilisi. We are introducing a true integrated resort-one that elevates the city’s global positioning, attracts international visitation at scale, and sets a new standard for hospitality, entertainment, and economic impact in the region.”

Irakli Kvergelidze, CEO of Orbi Group, added: “We are proud to be bringing Planet Hollywood Hotel & Casino to Tbilisi and to deliver a destination that will help shape the future of tourism and hospitality in Georgia.”

The Tbilisi development builds on the continued success of Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas and reflects the brand’s strategy to expand into high-growth international markets through experienced local partners.

Hotel and casino developer Mark Advent, founder of the New York New York Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas and Partner of Iconic Entertainment, added: “I’ve waited decades for the right opportunity to work with Robert Earl- one of the world’s great impresarios; his creation of Planet Hollywood is part of a truly storied legacy. We are in the fun business, and he has brought extraordinary enjoyment to guests around the world by bringing to life one of pop culture’s most iconic entertainment brands. On top of this, Tbilisi is ready for a project of this scale- this will be a defining destination!”

Additional details regarding opening timeline, entertainment programming, and strategic partnerships will be announced in the coming months.
