Follow the gold-lined hallway to the mega-dance floor of Encore’s XS, which is accented by ornate chandeliers, shimmering columns, and oversized mirrors so the pretty people who fill XS can check their makeup. The main tables (which command at least $10,000 on a major night) surround the circular dance floor, which stays packed until closing when international superstar DJs like Marshmello, Diplo, or The Chainsmokers are at the tables.

The 75,000-square-feet Omnia sits on the prime corner inside Caesars Palace, once home to the legendary celeb-soaked Pure.

When you need to catch your breath, chill out in the Heart of Omnia, the ultralounge portion of the club near the main entrance – or visit the garden terrace with breathtaking views of the Strip.

This mega-club quickly became known for changing the DJ culture on the Strip by paying the big bucks to reel in all of the big guns, from Steve Aoki to Tiesto and Calvin Harris. The “progressive” MGM Grand experience kicks off with an amazing meal in the downstairs restaurant (don’t skip the crispy duck salad or any of the amazing house cocktails), before moving up to the small Ling Ling Lounge and then finishing in the enormous main club.

Tao

The original: Tao blew into town with a splashy, celeb-drenched premiere in 2003 and never looked back. To this day, it is known as one of the most “fun” clubs – and thus often hosts A-list birthdays. Late-night, expect anything to happen at the Venetian hot spot, such as buckets of glitter to fall onto a packed dance floor, or strangely costumed dancers to come out and take over the stage. Meanwhile, well-dressed women are invited to dance on the high partition dividing the VIP area. Don’t slip.

Drai’s
If you’re in Vegas to party (and who isn’t?), you’d better save time for Drai’s.. Ever since it opened in the renovated Cromwell hotel, it’s been killing it, thanks to stunning Strip views, a gorgeous ambiance of white drapery with pops of color – and a crowd that is ready to get down. The “Drai’s” name is known for its after-hours debauchery. And did we mention the view? Taking in the Bellagio fountains and much more from the far end of the pool will make you feel like king of the world – or at least Las Vegas.
