ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
This prospectus supplement is a supplement to the accompanying prospectus that is also a part of this document. The accompanying prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) using a shelf registration process. Under the shelf registration process, from time to time, we may offer shares of common stock. In the accompanying prospectus, we provide you with a general description of the shares of our common stock that we may offer under the prospectus. In this prospectus supplement, we provide you with specific information about the terms of this offering. Both this prospectus supplement and the prospectus include, or incorporate by reference, important information about us, our common stock and other information you should know before investing. This prospectus supplement also adds to, updates and changes information contained in the prospectus. If any specific statement that we make in this prospectus supplement is inconsistent with the statements made in the accompanying prospectus, the statements made in the accompanying prospectus are deemed modified or superseded by the statements made in this prospectus supplement. You should read both this prospectus supplement and the prospectus, as well as the additional information described under “Where You Can Find More Information” in the accompanying prospectus before investing in our common stock.

Table of Contents
Before deciding to invest in our common stock, you should carefully consider each of the following risk factors and all of the other information set forth in this prospectus supplement and in the accompanying prospectus and incorporated in this prospectus supplement and in the accompanying prospectus by reference, including in Item 1A and the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
The risks and uncertainties described below and incorporated by reference herein are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, cash flow and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In that case, the value of our common stock could decline substantially.
Risks Relating to the Offering
The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, which may make it difficult for you to resell the common stock issuable when you want or at prices you find attractive.
The price of shares of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market constantly changes. We expect that the market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate. Holders of our common stock will be subject to the risk of volatility and depressed prices of our common stock.
Our stock price can fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
| • | announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, joint marketing relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments; |
| • | developments in construction of Wynn Las Vegas or Wynn Macau; |
| • | developments generally affecting the casino/hotel and resorts industries; |
| • | announcements by third parties of significant claims or proceedings against us; |
| • | changes in government regulations and governmental approval of gaming activities; |
| • | changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts and investors; |
| • | future sales of our equity or equity-linked securities; and |
| • | general domestic and international economic conditions. |
General market fluctuations, industry factors and general economic and geopolitical conditions and events, such as economic slowdowns or recessions, consumer confidence in the economy, recent terrorist attacks and ongoing military conflicts, also could cause our stock price to decrease.
In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company. These broad market fluctuations also may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
S-2
Table of Contents
Future sales of our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
As of the date of this prospectus, our officers and directors beneficially own 50,393,383 shares of common stock. We and our executive officers and directors have agreed with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., subject to certain exceptions, not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our common stock, or enter into any hedging transaction relating to the common stock, during the period from the date of this prospectus until 60 days after the date of this prospectus, except with the prior written consent of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. Upon the expiration of the 60-day lockup period, our officers and directors will be able to sell these shares into the public market. In addition, as of September 27, 2007, there were 2,663,250 shares of our common stock reserved and subject to issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants and the vesting of restricted stock.
We cannot predict the effect, if any, that the future issuance or market sales of shares of our common stock will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales are likely to occur, could materially adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through an offering of equity or equity-linked securities.

We intend to use the proceeds from the sale of the common stock in this offering for general corporate purposes and to enhance our financial flexibility for future projects and potential new developments.

Holders
There were approximately 263 holders of record of our common stock as of September 27, 2007.
Dividends
On November 13, 2006 our Board of Directors declared a special one-time distribution of $6.00 per common share which was paid on December 4, 2006.
We are a holding company and, as a result, our ability to pay dividends is dependent on our subsidiaries’ ability to provide funds to us. Additionally, we are the borrower under an aggregate $1.0 billion delayed-draw term loan credit facility dated as of June 21, 2007 that imposes (i) restrictions on our ability to make “restricted payments,” as defined in the facility, or to incur obligations to make such restricted payments and (ii) restrictions and prepayment obligations with respect to dispositions and distributions of equity interests and other funds from our subsidiaries. Restrictions imposed by our subsidiaries’ debt instruments significantly restrict certain key subsidiaries holding a majority of our assets, including Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Macau, S.A. from making dividends or distributions to Wynn Resorts. Specifically, Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries are restricted under the indenture governing our first mortgage notes from making certain “restricted payments,” as defined in the indenture. These restricted payments include the payment of dividends or distributions to any direct or indirect holders of equity interests of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC. These restricted payments cannot be made unless certain financial and non-financial criteria have been satisfied. In addition, the terms of the other loan agreements of Wynn Las Vegas, LLC and Wynn Macau, S.A. contain similar restrictions.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI”), has agreed to purchase from us 3,750,000 shares of common stock at a public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement.
The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of DBSI to purchase the shares of common stock offered hereby are subject to certain conditions precedent. The underwriting agreement also provides that DBSI will purchase all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement, other than those covered by the over-allotment option described below.
We have been advised by DBSI that it proposes to offer the shares of common stock to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. After the initial offering of the shares of common stock, DBSI may change the public offering price.
Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “WYNN.”
We have granted to DBSI an option, exercisable not later than 30 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, to purchase up to 562,500 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus supplement. DBSI may exercise this option only to cover over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the common stock offered by this prospectus supplement. We will be obligated, pursuant to the option, to sell these additional shares of common stock to DBSI to the extent the option is exercised. If any additional shares of common stock are purchased, DBSI will offer the additional shares on the same terms as those on which the 3,750,000 shares are being offered.
The underwriting discounts and commissions per share are equal to the public offering price per share of common stock less the amount paid by DBSI to us per share of common stock. We have agreed to pay DBSI the following discounts and commissions, assuming either no exercise or full exercise by DBSI of the over-allotment option:

$ | 4.00 | $ | 15,000,000 | $ | 17,250,000 | |||
In addition, we estimate that our share of the total expenses of this offering, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $280,000.
We have agreed to indemnify DBSI against some specified types of liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and to contribute to payments DBSI may be required to make in respect of any of these liabilities.
Certain of our executive officers, directors and shareholders have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to directly or indirectly offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any shares of common stock, shares of common stock which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant and any other security convertible into or exchangeable for common stock, or enter into any hedging

transaction relating to the common stock for a period of 60 days after the date of this prospectus supplement without the prior written consent of DBSI. This consent may be given at any time without public notice. Transfers or dispositions can be made during the lock-up period in the case of gifts, for estate planning purposes or other specified transactions where the donee signs a lock-up agreement.
DBSI has advised us that it does not intend to confirm sales to any account over which they exercise discretionary authority.
In connection with the offering, DBSI may purchase and sell shares of our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions.
Short sales involve the sale by DBSI of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. Covered short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than DBSI’s option to purchase additional shares of common stock from us in the offering. DBSI may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market.
Naked short sales are any sales in excess of the over-allotment option. DBSI must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if DBSI is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market prior to the completion of the offering. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, DBSI will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option.
Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of our common stock made by DBSI in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.
Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions may have the effect of preventing or slowing a decline in the market price of our common stock. Additionally, these purchases may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.
A prospectus in electronic format is being made available on the Internet web site maintained by DBSI. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on DBSI’s web site and any information contained in any other web site maintained by DBSI is not part of the prospectus supplement or the registration statement of which the prospectus supplement forms a part.

We are a developer, owner and operator of destination casino resorts. We currently own and operate Wynn Las Vegas, a destination casino resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, which opened on April 28, 2005, and Wynn Macau, a destination casino resort in the Macau Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, which opened on September 6, 2006. In addition, on April 28, 2006, we commenced construction of Encore at Wynn Las Vegas, a hotel casino resort which, when completed, will be fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas. We are also currently expanding Wynn Macau and in November 2006, announced “Wynn Diamond Suites” an additional hotel tower for Wynn Macau. Until the opening of Wynn Las Vegas in 2005, we were solely a development stage company.

We believe Wynn Las Vegas is the preeminent destination casino resort on the Strip in Las Vegas. Wynn Las Vegas features:

| • | Two showrooms, a nightclub and lounge entertainment. |
In March 2007, we remodeled the Le Rêve Theatre to enhance the customer experience. The theatre went from 2,087 to 1,606 seats providing additional room for guests and a more intimate experience. The remodel effort lasted approximately 30 days from March 6, 2007 through April 4, 2007, during which time there were no performances of Le Rêve. Also, in March 2007, we commenced performances of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” in our Grail Theatre.
The resort, which is located at the intersection of the Las Vegas Strip and Sands Avenue, occupies approximately 217 acres of land fronting the Las Vegas Strip and approximately 18 additional acres across Sands Avenue, a portion of which is utilized for employee parking.

We are constructing Encore on approximately 20 acres on the Las Vegas Strip, immediately adjacent to Wynn Las Vegas. Encore’s current plans include a 2,034 all-suite hotel tower fully integrated with Wynn Las Vegas, an approximately 72,000 square foot casino, additional convention and meeting space, as well as restaurants, a nightclub, swimming pools, a spa and salon and retail outlets. We continue to refine the final design of Encore. Encore is expected to open in early 2009. Our project budget is currently estimated at approximately $2.2 billion, consisting of approximately $2.1 billion for Encore and approximately $100 million for an employee parking garage on our Koval property, an associated pedestrian bridge and costs incurred in connection with the theatre remodeling and production of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” at Wynn Las Vegas, which opened March 2007.
Wynn Macau
We opened Wynn Macau on September 6, 2006. Wynn Macau is located on 11 acres of a total site area of 16 acres of land and features:
| • | An approximately 130,000 square foot casino offering 24-hour gaming and a full range of games, including private gaming salons; |
| • | Luxury hotel accommodations in 600 rooms and suites; |
| • | Casual and fine dining in five restaurants; |
| • | Approximately 26,000 square feet of high-end, brand-name retail shopping, including stores and boutiques featuring Bulgari, Chanel, Dior, Fendi, Giorgio Armani, Louis Vuitton, Piaget, Prada, Tiffany, and others; |
| • | Recreation and leisure facilities, including a health club, pool and spa; and |
| • | Lounges and meeting facilities. |
Construction and development continues on the second phase. This phase includes additional gaming space, a dramatic front feature attraction, a theater showroom and additional food, beverage and retail amenities. In September 2007, we opened approximately 20,000 square feet of additional gaming space and one restaurant at Wynn Macau in this second phase. The remaining portion of the expansion is expected to open by Chinese New Year, 2008. After the completion of the expansion, Wynn Macau is expected to have a total of approximately 380 table games and 1,200 slot machines.
In July 2007, Wynn Macau S.A. issued a notice to proceed to the general contractor with respect to approximately $347.8 million of construction costs relating to the construction of Wynn Diamond Suites. While the complete project budget is still being finalized, we expect the costs to be in the range of $550 to $600 million. We expect Wynn Diamond Suites to open to the public in the first half of 2010. First announced in November 2006, Wynn Diamond Suites will be fully integrated into Wynn Macau and is expected to have 400 luxury suites and villas.
We operate Wynn Macau under a 20-year casino concession agreement granted by the Macau government in June 2002.
Cotai Development
We have submitted an application to the Macau government for a concession of land in Cotai. We recently reconfigured our site plan for 52 acres and are awaiting final approval.
