Move over, New York City, Miami, and Los Angeles. When it comes to nightlife and nightclubs, Las Vegas has easily become one of the world’s top party spots in the past few decades.
As Exclusive as It Gets
If you’re looking to hang out where all the rich and beautiful people go, then XS at Encore is your best bet. The exclusive ambience of this nightclub is completed with plush VIP booths, two main bars, and three additional ones. The outside patio at XS is even better, with twenty-five two-story poolside cabanas alongside a gigantic pool.
Classic Speakeasy
Noir Lounge (under LAX) at Luxor is the place for a classic, sexy speakeasy, with its exposed brick and the best mixologists in town; name your flavor, and NOIR’s experts will create it. Try their signature Peanut Butter & Jam Martini. Here, you can sit back, relax in high class, and let the night unfold.
Trendy and Fun
The Beatles: REVOLUTION Lounge is a great place to unwind at the Mirage. The lounge re-creates and modernizes the Beatles’ for today and offers changing, interactive wallpaper and tabletops to heighten the psychedelic experience. Even with dancers on the bar, REVOLUTION Lounge is a great, mature option for those looking to avoid the lines at Mirage’s JET nightclub.
Wild Like Spring Break
For a spring break–type party full of hot people, LAX Nightclub at Luxor Las Vegas is the place to be. One of the most popular clubs in Las Vegas, this two-tiered club has oversized mirrors, chandeliers, VIP lofts, and rich red leathers, and those are just part of what make LAX so hot.
Where the Male Vegas Show Dancers Go
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas—and if you’re looking for a gay party, head to KRAVE, where male dancers abound on pedestals. On WTF? Wednesday nights, guys can go onstage to show off their dancing skills for prizes, while Flesh Every Friday features male go-gos all night long. Here, you’re sure to bump into some of Vegas’s male dancers from shows like Jubilee! at Bally’s Las Vegas.
Shoulder-to-Shoulder Saturday Night
Head to the Palms Casino’s trendy MOON, sexy Playboy Club, or Ghostbar sky deck nightclubs for a shoulder-to-shoulder Saturday night. These exclusive retro-chic boutique clubs features one of the best views of the Strip, not to mention Nevada’s starlit sky.
Best Bottle Service with a View
For another great view of the Strip from the bottom to the top, try the sophisticated MIX Lounge at Mandalay Bay. Reserve a booth on the 64th-floor VIP balcony, where you can sit back, enjoy chic bottle service, and look out onto the Strip.
