XS AT ENCORE
Drake and Las Vegas seem to go handin-hand these days. The multi-platinum artist has had a successful limited run of performances at XS throughout 2019. Though Drake’s Dec. 30 performance at the posh club has been called the “final installment,” we’ll believe it when we hear it. No matter when you visit, it’s a see-and-be-seen club—a favorite of the beautiful, the monied and Nightclub & Bar magazine, which named XS as the No. 1 club in America for five consecutive years. 702.770.7070
TAO AT THE VENETIAN
A long-time Vegas favorite, TAO is hotter than ever. A visit on a Saturday night practically guarantees you’ll be rubbing elbows with a celebrity, either in the second-floor club or the first-floor restaurant (which is one of Vegas’ top spots for sushi). We love to start our evening in the enchanting lounge, cocktails and appetizers in hand, fueling up for a night on the town. 702.388.8588
