Las Vegas Nightclubs

LIV at Fontainebleau imports the Miami brand to the Strip with a tall, layered room full of LED, smoke and a heavy DJ lineup. The crowd skews fashionable and younger, and the place is set up for table service and big spenders as much as for casual dancers. Early reviews call out strong production and predictable sticker shock on bottle prices. It is clearly aiming for the "event" club slot in the current lineup.

Marquee has been around long enough to feel like a veteran of the Strip, with a main room inside and a pool deck that opens during warmer months. The music leans EDM and open-format depending on the night, and the crowd is a mix of tourists, bachelor parties and club regulars. Some parts of the space show their age, but the energy when the DJ is on point still makes up for it. It is a reliable choice if you like big-room club nights without chasing the newest thing.

OMNIA is a full-blown mega-club with a huge main room, a kinetic chandelier overhead and a balcony that overlooks the whole scene. The production is big, with lighting, lasers and confetti coming in waves during peak sets. It is busy, loud and expensive, and service can feel rushed when the place is at capacity. If you want the classic "Vegas nightclub" experience in 2025, this is still one of the main answers.

XS is a hybrid indoor-outdoor club that wraps around the Encore pool, so the space feels huge but still connected. Big-name DJs, strong sound and a crowd that skews well dressed keep it near the top of many lists. Table service and entry are priced accordingly, and the lines to get in can be long. It remains one of the more polished mega-clubs in town if you are willing to spend.

Hakkasan is a multi-level club anchored by a large main room that feels like a theater for EDM and big-room house. The sound and lighting rigs are still impressive, and the crowds on marquee nights prove there is life left in the mega-club model. It can feel like a maze when it is full, and getting a drink at the main bar on peak nights takes patience. If you like big drops and big crowds, it still delivers.

JEWEL is Aria's main nightclub, smaller than the mega-clubs but still built around big sound, sharp lighting and headliner DJs. The layout puts you close to the action even if you are not at a table, which gives the room good energy when it is full. Bottle prices and lines stay firmly in Strip-club territory, so it is not exactly casual. It suits people who want a real nightclub experience without the sprawl of the largest venues.

Encore Beach Club at Night flips the dayclub into a nighttime pool party with lights in the water, DJs on the stage and plenty of people in swimwear instead of club clothes. The vibe is looser and more playful than the typical dark-box nightclub. Drinks and cabanas cost a lot, and the noise level is understandably high. It is a better fit if you like being outside and do not mind the chaos of a big pool crowd.

TAO is a multi-room space above the restaurant, with a central dance floor, side rooms and enough nooks that you can change your night just by walking around. The club has been a staple for years, which means the operation is smooth but the format is also very familiar. Music is mostly open-format and hip-hop, and the crowd tends to be heavy on groups and celebrations. It is not the trendiest room anymore, but it still gets plenty of bodies through the door.

On The Record blends a speakeasy entrance, record-themed decor and a split-space layout with a main room and an outdoor area. DJs and occasional live performances keep it moving, but it feels more like a party house than a typical black-box club. The crowd is mixed, and the room works well for people who like to wander and explore rather than stare at a single stage. It is a good fit if you want nightlife without the mega-club vibe.

Zouk is a modern, high-tech club with huge LED panels, creative lighting and a rotating DJ calendar that targets festival-style crowds. The room is flexible enough to feel different depending on the night, from packed EDM events to slightly more relaxed hip-hop or open-format sets. Like other top-tier clubs, prices for tables and drinks are high, and you feel the resort's newness in both the design and the crowd. It is one of the main draws at Resorts World for people who want a big night out.
