With so many options in Las Vegas, many visitors still find themselves asking, “Where should we go? What should we do?” That’s where Las Vegas Magazine comes in. If you’re itching to go out and have some fun but can’t seem to narrow down the choices, we’ve rounded up some great options for you.
Atomic Golf at The STRAT. With four floors and 103 golfing bays, guests can test their swing skills through state-of-the-art golf technology and games. The 100,000-square-foot venue also boasts six bars, exclusive dining menu, VIP suites, digital putting bays and wall-to-ceiling, high-def LCD displays for sports viewing. The golf theme continues downtown at Circa Resort & Casino’s massive pool complex, Stadium Swim. From April 11-14, guests can catch the Augusta golf tournament being broadcast on the 143-foot-tall screen. The “Fore the Win!” viewing party—open to those 21 and over with general admission tickets starting at $25—also offers specially themed cocktails and a fairway-inspired menu of pimento cheese sandwiches, egg salad sandwiches and more.
Other newly opened venues ready for partiers to revel include The Pinky Ringby Bruno Mars at Bellagio. This cocktail lounge was designed by the music star himself and evokes the vibes and look of an upscale Las Vegas party penthouse suite. Highlights include a distinct cocktail menu and a stage for live entertainment (Mars, his band The Hooligans and various music-industry friends have been known to stop by for impromptu performances). Also new to the Strip is the Glass Bar at Planet Hollywood. This beautiful lounge in the heart of the casino floor offers a fabulous cocktail program and the perfect spot to party before or after a concert at nearby Bakkt Theater, or simply a great spot for friends to enjoy a night out while catching a game on one of the many TV screens. For those that want to go off Strip, head to local favorite Silverton Casino Lodge for its new pop-up bar, Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, at the Shady Grove Lounge. The entire space is transformed into the world of Alice in Wonderland with colorful, over-the-top décor, specially themed craft cocktails and small plates, and a really cool puzzle hunt where guests can search for answers throughout the bar and be entered to win a staycation. The pop-up experience is offered every Friday through Sunday from 5-10 p.m.
For some nightclub vibes, head to Drai’s at The Cromwell every Tuesday night for its new series, On a Tuesday, where special R&B stars put on a full-blown concert experience. This week, on April 9, catch DJ Pee .Wee (AKA Anderson .Paak).
April 9 is also National Gin & Tonic Day, and various venues across the city are celebrating with specials on gin and tonic cocktails. At Proper Bar at Aria, order the Gin-Z with Botanist gin, Aperol and Martini & Rossi prosecco, or the I Love You Mary Jane with Bombay Sapphire gin, fresh mint, agave and lemon. At Gatsby’s Cocktail Lounge at Resorts World Las Vegas, go classic with Gatsby’s Gin & Tonic, made with Bombay Sapphire gin and your choice of Fever-Tree tonic in flavors like cucumber or elderflower and topped with grapefruit, rosemary and black peppercorns. Yum!
Last on our list, with the weather heating up in Las Vegas, don’t miss checking out Minus 5 Icebar—with locations at The Venetian, The Linq Promenade and Mandalay Bay—for its newly offered Dole Whip booze-infused cocktails. The famous Dole Whip is mixed with three new cocktails like the PB&V with Skrewball whiskey, Dole Whip vanilla soft serve and Butterfinger candy bits; the Going Bananas with Howler Head whiskey, Dole Whip soft serve, Chamoy chili sauce, Tajín chili powder and banana chips; and the Apple Pie with Crown Royal Regal apple whiskey, Fireball cinnamon whiskey, Dole Whip vanilla soft serve and cinnamon.
