The Bakkt Theater, originally known as Aladdin Theatre for the Performing Arts, is a mid-sized auditorium located at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip. The venue hosts a variety of events, including charity benefits, concerts and award shows. It is used frequently for the beauty pageants Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen USA. From 2013 to 2017, the auditorium was the home to Britney Spears's concert residency Piece of Me and Justin Timberlake's annual concert to benefit the Shriners Hospitals for Children. The National Football League used the auditorium for the first three rounds of the 2022 NFL Draft and will do so again for the 2024 NFL Honors. In 2011, it was voted as one of the "Best Concert Halls & Theaters In Las Vegas".
