MUSIC: NEON CITY FESTIVAL Downtown’s inaugural Neon City Festival has all the potential to be epic. The three-day event is  the ambitious “F1 alternative” casino mogul and creator Derek Stevens always envisioned. A festival without fences, completely free and anchored by close to 40 different musical acts across four stages? That’s a hell of a party. Rave starters like TroyBoi, Seven Lions, Alison Wonderland and Krewella close out each evening, with support from nostalgic acts like Neon Trees, The All-American Rejects, Plain White T’s, Bubba Sparxxx and Twista. Homegrown acts like Pure Sport and Ekoh also round out the bill. The Neon City Festival’s footprint will span the Downtown area, with pop-up shops, local food vendors and curated art from Area15 being scattered throughout this fun weekend. 5 p.m., free, Downtown Las Vegas, neoncityfestival.com. –Amber Sampson

For years, the Milk Bar founder, award-winning chef, best-selling author and creator of the world-famous Cereal Milk has been sharing her baking secrets with the world. Now Tosi will sweeten that deal at the Writer’s Block, where she’ll host a meet-and-greet to discuss accessible recipes in her latest book, Bake Club. Whether you’re a novice in the kitchen whose only experience with cookie-making came from your Easy Bake Oven, or you’re a prodigy for the Great British Bake Off, there’s a tasty takeaway for everyone.

MISC: OASIS ICE RINK OPENING Nothing quite satisfies holiday fever like ice skating, and lucky for us, Fontainebleau is adding another rink to the Strip. But this isn’t just any ice rink—the resort claims it will be the largest real ice rink on the Boulevard. Comprising two rinks spanning nearly 8,000 square feet, Oasis Ice Rink allows both public skating and private group events. The “holiday village on ice” also includes fire pit rentals and holiday movie showings rink-side. There’s no better way to get into the spirit. Weekdays 5-11 p.m., weekends 11 a.m.-11 p.m., $35, Fontainebleau, fontainebleau lasvegas.com. –Shannon Miller
