ARIA Hotel and Casino

What’s Las Vegas without playing the slots? The slot machine floor at ARIA is one of the largest on the Las Vegas Strip, making this a great option for what to do in Vegas at night! Home to almost 2,000 slot machines, the casino hosts a slot tournament several times per year. In addition, ARIA has one of the most exclusive high-limit slot rooms in all of Nevada.

SPIN – the appropriately named high-limit room offers some machines that cost up to $5,000 per pull. And the payouts are just as eye-popping; upwards of $1 million! The room was designed by a New York-based architect, Peter Marino, and features an area solely for exchanging slot tickets for dollars, as well as a full-service dining area, private bathrooms, and a staff of butlers to cater to each guest’s needs. Wow!

MGM Grand

The MGM Grand offers fun things to do for those who gamble and non-gamblers alike, making it a prime destination for those exploring what to do in Vegas at night. The casino is well-known for its vast amount of table games and one of the most grudging slot machines in Vegas history, but if you’re looking to make memories doing something entertaining in a casino without playing the slots or table games, check out Level Up.

The glorified arcade is a 21 and up bar and expansive video game mecca. In addition to beer pong, the fun zone has Pop-A-Shot, billiards, one of the largest games of Pac-Man on Earth and an original Sigma Derby – a horse race-themed slot machine that lets players bet on individual horses. Feel like a kid again!

Drai’s Beachclub Nightclub

Drai’s Beachclub Nightclub is at The Cromwell. This amazing 65,000 square foot rooftop venue features both indoor and outdoor party areas. One of the most unique traits of this club is the live musical entertainment from some of today’s top artists, such as Chris Brown, The Weeknd, Nicki Minaj and Trey Songz. The lighting and LED displays around the club are flawless. High-end bottle service packages include firework displays that shoot off the top of the venue. What a way to celebrate!

*BONUS* Still want to party and the club is closing? Don’t fret about where to go. Head down to the basement of The Cromwell to Drai’s After Hours Club. This stylish club is a hotspot of the Las Vegas action. Spinning hip-hop in one room and electronic house music in another, Drai’s After Hours stays open until 8:00 a.m., so you can quite literally party until the sun comes up. Don’t miss it! This club is definitely one of our top choices for what to do in Vegas at night.

Omnia

Caesars Palace and the Hakkasan Group have truly raised the bar with one of the greatest nightclubs in Las Vegas. Omnia is an experience like none other. The first thing you will notice upon entry to the megaclub is the giant LED chandelier. It’s a sight to behold! Notice the mirrored panels and velvet curtains – which bring elegance all the way! Omnia has three different areas to party. The main room is focused on the headlining DJs (some of the top DJs in the world, I might add), is two stories high to accommodate the masses, and where you will find the chandelier to end all chandeliers.

The second room is dubbed the “Heart of Omnia” which has a darker ambiance, with LED lights illuminating almost all the walls. Omnia also offers an escape to an outdoor patio area, with a fantastic view of Las Vegas Blvd. Like extra attention? A drumline performs bottle service presentations throughout the night. Order away! This club undoubtedly offers some of the best options for what to do in Vegas at night.

Our professional tour guides will walk you through the city as you enjoy a kaleidoscope of sweetness with everything from rich chocolates to delicate pastries to hand-crafted cookies. Book your tour now!

1. Make bonding easy

Maximize employee connections with an activity that promotes movement and interaction. If you’re trying to build relationships with your team, it’s really easy to facilitate when you’re constantly moving around and active opposed to a seated dinner where you’d only be able to speak to the people around you.

 2. Encourage natural conversations

A lot of employees will roll their eyes or jump ship if they hear the world “icebreaker.” While there’s a time and place for workplace icebreakers and team-building exercises, it may make the entire event seem more like work than like bonding. Rather, get the team excited by choosing an activity that initiates its own discussion. This way, nothing will feel forced and there won’t be as much pressure.

3. Tailor the event to the personalities

Consider the personalities of your team. Are they active? Are they super competitive? Do they already know each other? By tailoring the event to your team’s personalities, you can ensure that everyone feels comfortable and relaxed. Most often, the best option is to choose something that doesn’t fall too far outside anyone’s comfort zone.

We may be biased but we think that food tours are the perfect choice for corporate outings! Food is a universal language so regardless of the personalities, your team will bond over the delicious tastes Las Vegas has to offer. Plus, the constant shuffling from restaurant to restaurant will encourage everyone to mingle! Build your team morale and join us on a company food tour for your next team building or corporate event in Las Vegas! Give us a call or shoot us an email and we can customize the event to fit your team’s needs.

Since springing from the desert more than a half-century ago, Las Vegas has been the gambling mecca of the United States, if not the planet. But just because Vegas is synonymous with casinos, poker chips and slot machines doesn’t mean it can’t entertain those visitors with no interest in pressing their luck.

Las Vegas is among the most eclectic—and electric—getaway spots in the United States, with activities to accommodate the interests of every tourist, including those preferring not to gamble. In fact, there’s so much to do in Vegas, one trip isn’t enough. A return engagement will be necessary to experience it all.

Foodies for Las Vegas

Las Vegas has emerged in recent years as a can’t-miss eating city for foodies or anyone looking to tantalize their taste buds. It’s where celebrity chefs now come to wield their culinary wizardry in a variety of renowned restaurants dotting the Strip.

Nature in Las Vegas

Often overshadowed by the glitz, glamour and lights of Las Vegas is its natural beauty, both within and outside the city limits. The region is an outdoors paradise, steeped in breathtaking landscapes and gardens of eye-popping plant life that touch every possibility on the color wheel. Bellagio’s Conservatory and Botanical Gardens abounds with floral extravagance to match each season of the year. Or, visitors can venture 20 miles off the Strip to Red Rock Canyon, a magnificent area of the Mojave Desert for taking in awe-inspiring views on a hike, a bike ride or a guided tour.

World Themed Experience in Las Vegas Nevada

While you’ll be situated in Nevada, Las Vegas is unique for its ability to transport visitors to far-off lands and exotic getaways. Experience the world with little more than the soles of your feet or the assist of a taxi. Looking for a touch of Europe? Then rise high above the city at the Eiffel Tower Experience or enjoy a romantic, Venice-inspired gondola ride at the Venetian. For those yearning to travel to another time, the Egyptian-styled Luxor and Camelot-themed Excalibur resorts bring the past to life.

Tap Into Your Wild Side

In Las Vegas, the only limit to the thrills of a lifetime is your imagination. If you can dream up a soul-stirring adventure, there’s a very good chance it can be brought to life in this expansive playground for fun. Build unforgettable memories—and get your blood pumping—by hovering in suspended animation at Vegas Indoor Skydiving, exploring the Moapa Valley in dune buggies with Ultimate Desert Adventures or zip lining high above Bootleg Canyon. Oh, and adrenaline junkies won’t want to miss Big Shot at the Stratosphere, the world’s highest amusement ride.

Treat Yo’ Self

You’ve undoubtedly worked hard all year, often sacrificing for the benefit of others. You have earned this opportunity to be pampered and spoiled. And no one does the spa treatment better than Las Vegas. While Spa at Aria, Canyon Ranch SpaClub and Qua Baths and Spa provide unsurpassed tranquility and service, there’s no shortage of options for detoxifying, quieting the mind’s noise and kneading stress out of overworked muscles. Any one of Vegas’ abundance of world-class spas can deliver the ideal escape from life’s frenetic pace.

Go History Hopping in Las Vegas

Sprinkled throughout the city is an array of compelling galleries and curated relics from across the societal landscape.

Take In a Show in Las Vegas, Nevada

From as far back as Elvis and The Rat Pack, Vegas has long been a destination where headliners go to perform their acts. Whether you’re looking to be entertained by music, magic, comedy or an elaborate production that defies the laws of gravity, the Strip has something for everyone. Check your calendar frequently, because each month is jam-packed with a deep roster of stars. Prepare to have your jaw dropped from the likes of David Copperfield, Maroon 5, Blue Man Group or one of Cirque du Soleil’s eight theatrical and acrobatic performances that redefine the meaning of a circus.
