We’ve got a few more Vegas pool parties left on the docket but you probably shouldn’t miss the Drain the Pool Party at XS on Sunday, October 21. Say sayonara to summer for real, with sounds from DJ Five.

Strip nightlife icon Victor Drai was recently honored (alongside the Righteous Brothers) with the Casino Entertainment Legend Award at the sixth-annual Casino Entertainment Awards during the Global Gaming Expo.

On the Record, the club coming to Park MGM on December 28, keeps distinguishing itself from the typical Vegas venue. Jonnie and Mark Houston of Houston Hospitality recently announced they’ll incorporate karaoke into their first Vegas venture, inspired by the programming and vibes at their nostalgic LA venues Good Times at Davey Wayne’s, Break Room 86 and Dirty Laundry. “A karaoke room break is such a fun way to hang out with a group of friends and step outside your comfort zone to belt out that Sinatra ballad or ’80s guilty pleasure song,” the brothers said in a statement.

Big news from EDC producer Insomniac: Play Festival, its first ever interactive music and gaming experience, will debut in 2019 in a city to be named later. It aims to combine the worlds of music, art, esports and virtual reality. Sounds like something that could work well in Las Vegas.
