We all know Labor Day Weekend is not the end of summer in Las Vegas. But there are plenty of other reasons to celebrate, including the fact that it’s still one of the best three-day weekends to hit the clubs, join the crowds and let loose. Need an itinerary? We got you.
Friday, September 1
On any other weekend, we’d advise skipping the dayclub on Friday so you don’t burn out early. But LDW is a marathon, and that means you need to set the right pace from the start, so down the iced coffee or energy drink of your choice and join the lovely ladies of NervoatAyu Dayclub at Resorts World (zoukgrouplv.com) to get the weekend started right. Or dip over to Wynn to catch resident troublemaker Dillon Francis team with Canadian YouTuber and rapper Cody Ko at Encore Beach Club (wynnsocial.com).
Friday night, dance music all-stars of today and tomorrow take control: catch Above & Beyond at Omnia at Caesars Palace (events.taogroup.com), hitmaker Zedd at Zouk at Resorts World (zoukgrouplv.com), or Aussie house fave Dom Dolla running the show at night at Encore Beach Club (wynnsocial.com).
Saturday, September 2
The big day has arrived. This is the time to go hard under the sun, bouncing to sets from Vegas legends Tiësto at Ayu (zoukgrouplv.com) and Steve Aoki at Wet Republic at MGM Grand (events.taogroup.com). Switch up the beat on the Cromwell’s center-Strip rooftop when rapper Rick Ross performs live at Drai’s Beachclub (draisgroup.com) or check in with your old pal DJ Pauly D at Marquee Dayclub at the Cosmopolitan (events.taogroup.com).
What’s that? You’re sweaty and sunburned? You can’t hear and you smell like Champagne? These are honor badges of LDW Vegas. Time to rally for some of the biggest sets of the weekend at Wynn when Calvin Harris returns to XS and Tyga performs at Encore Beach Club on Saturday night (wynnsocial.com).
Sunday, September 3
And now we take it down a notch. Sunday is for a more relaxed vibe. You’ll still hit the big pool parties, but this time, you’ll take in the surrounding scene at these beautiful venues and appreciate the full experience along with the music. We suggest the OVO Takeover show starring Partynextdoor at the tropical Ayu (zoukgrouplv.com) or the energetic Fisher spinning at the enchanting Tao Beach Dayclub at Venetian (events.taogroup.com).
More superstar artists come out to play Sunday night, including Diplo at XS (wynnsocial.com), rapper G-Eazy returning to Zouk (zoukgrouplv.com), and—just announced!—the one and only Diddy taking the stage at Drai’s (draisgroup.com). He just announced he’s dropping his first solo album in more than 15 years in a couple of weeks, so expect some samples of new music and maybe some special guests.
