With one of the top nightclub scenes in the world and more headliners than you can shake a feather boa at, Las Vegas has quickly established itself as one of the top destinations for LGBT travellers. Both on and off the Strip, Las Vegas offers everything from pool parties to go-go dancers, with a good dose of celebrity stardust thrown in for good measure.
Temptation Sundays is the place to be for sun-soaked partying on the Strip, located at The Luxor pool.
Expect small bathing suits and big fun at what has been dubbed “the best gay party” by Las Vegas Weekly and returns every Sunday during pool season (generally May to October).
Piranha Nightclub is is at the heart of the Fruit Loop LGBTQ+ district over on Paradise Road. There's weekly events like Boylesque Wednesdays, viewing parties for RuPaul’s Drag Race and the ever-popular Drag Queen Bingo.
The Phoenix Bar & Lounge is a local’s bar with its own quirky charm, comfy booths, friendly bartenders and live music. If you fancy taking a turn in the spotlight, make sure to get involved in the karaoke. This 24-hour venue also offers food from 4pm-4am, so there’s really no need to leave.
The pinnacle of LGBT Vegas events, Las Vegas PRIDE offers plenty of parties across the city as well as a glittering parade through downtown. Past grand marshals have included Kathy Griffin and Joan Rivers, so look forward to some star power again this year at the family-friendly event.
The marriage capital of the world now includes same sex wedding packages. Now that Nevada is on board with marriage equality, venues like The Strat offer LGBT wedding ceremonies overlooking the Strip.
Find your perfect trip to where the lights shine bright and the fun never stops...
