MUSIC: THE KNOCKS What Las Vegas lacks in beaches, it makes up for in sprawling day pools and unforgettable night swims. Circa’s year-round Stadium Swim is a bastion of both, and this Friday, it’ll kick off  its After Dark Concert series, a poolside party featuring multi-platinum electro-funk duo The Knocks with support from Las Vegas-bred DJs Dos Lonely Boys, Z and a joint set from Evan Durant and Parra. “We the Beat has hosted a ton of cool shows in Downtown Las Vegas, so we loved the idea of partnering with them for Stadium Swim’s first EDM concert,” Circa CEO Derek Stevens said in a statement. “This is the first time Stadium Swim’s full screen will be utilized for something of this caliber, and we look forward to this being the start of more music events for the venue.” The night swim concert will offer a whirlwind of dance across Stadium Swim’s six pools and two spas, with a silent disco station and tastings from Casamigos Tequila and Cointreau. 7 p.m., $15-$20, Stadium Swim, circalasvegas.com. –Amber Sampson

MUSIC: BEYONCÉ “Single Ladies,” “Love on Top,” “Cuff It”—if we’re thinking in terms of Beyoncé’s eras, each one of them has been golden. She perfected the art of the surprise album with 2016’s Lemonade. She redefined the girl group with Destiny’s Child. And she made history recently as the most-decorated Grammy Award winner of all time. Beyoncé’s work on the award-winning house music masterpiece Renaissance stunned the masses in 2022, bringing light to the Black luminaries and gay community that forged the genre into existence. She’s a wonder to some, a queen to many and easily one of the brightest stars of our generation. With her Renaissance World Tour, Beyoncé is on the road for the first time in seven years, offering three hours of sheer, soul-touching spectacle The Guardian called “a spangled supernova of joy.” And when this vocal powerhouse makes her way to Allegiant Stadium, she’ll do it with the highest-grossing tour of any Black performer. If that isn’t something to celebrate with 65,000-plus people in Las Vegas, we don’t know what is. 8 p.m., $162+, Allegiant Stadium, ticketmaster.com –Amber Sampson

MISC: BEETLEJUICE You wouldn’t know it to look at it, but Tim Burton’s creepy comedy Beetlejuice is 35 years old. (OK, a fresh-faced Alec Baldwin is a bit of a giveaway.) Burton’s tale of a recently deceased couple, the disaffected teenage girl whose family moves into their home and the “bio-exorcist” the ghostly couple hire to scare the family away has a timeless charm, one that should translate nicely to the stage in a musical version haunting Reynolds Hall this week. With a book by Scott Brown and Anthony King and a bunch of songs written by Australian comic Eddie Perfect, the musical Beetlejuice takes all the stuff you love—yes, even “Day-O”—and makes it sing. Hurry—like most things related to the spirit realm, tickets are vanishing. Thru 9/3, times vary, $50-$160, Reynolds Hall, thesmithcenter.com. –Geoff Carter
