Nightlife

Most nightlife starts quite late in Nevada. There is no last call since the bars are open 24 hours. Most of the gay bars are pretty scattered around the area, but the following is a listing of them. Most of the clubs have daily events. Please contact them directly for more information.

Which clubs are good? Because everyone has a different concept of "good", we'll must leave that for you to answer. All of the gay clubs in Las Vegas are essentially neighborhood bars. Three clubs that are popular with the under 30 crowd, Piranha Nightclub, Gipsy, and 8 1/2 Ultra Lounge have dance floors, cover charges on certain nights, and stand & model clientele. Popular nights are listed in the link below. With a the exceptions listed, expect the clubs to be popular after midnight.

Please note because the future opening of a club is of little value to a current patron, Gayvegas.com lists only clubs that are currently in operation. Once the club business is established it will be listed below.
