Our Las Vegas Nightlife Guides
So, you're planning your Vegas trip and looking to study up as much as you can before your trip: smart move! In addition to the blurbs above, feel free to check out our collection of Vegas Nightlife Guides, where we answer everything from booking limo transportation to IV hangover recovery answering basic club questions like dress code and explaining the finer points of bottle service and guest list reservations – we cover every aspect of educating you about Las Vegas nightlife.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What is the dress code at a Vegas Nightclub?
All Vegas nightclubs on the Strip operate with the same general dress code for males: no shorts, preferably a collared shirt, and no athletic wear (including shoes). Ladies pretty much have a lax dress code, with the only guidelines against athletic wear and see-through clothing without undergarments. The exception is some of the rooftops in the summer months.
I was denied by nightclub Security. Did I do something wrong?
The biggest reason a club's door security staff will deny a guest entry (if it isn't a dress code violation) is either an issue with the guest's ID (fake IDs, expired licenses, etc.) or an issue with the guest being too intoxicated to come into the venue without being a danger to themselves or others.
Are there Age Restrictions?
The age restrictions at Las Vegas Clubs require guests to be at least 21 years old. This is because the legal drinking age in the United States is 21, and these venues typically serve alcoholic beverages. To comply with the law and ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for all patrons, these establishments enforce this age restriction.
What's a Vegas Club Crawl?
A club crawl is a "tour" of multiple venues offered at one flat rate. You go on the tour to the first stop, and then after an allotment of time, the tour guide takes you and the rest of the group to the next stop, and so on, until you reach the destination. The Vegas crawl is a good deal for people looking to see the most venues in one night at a discounted rate.
Searching Availability...
Can ladies get free drinks at Vegas Clubs?
Buying drinks inside the Vegas clubs can be pricey. However, for ladies, you may be in luck as some Vegas clubs offer open bars as an added incentive with free guestlist entry. Additionally, you might be eligible for a girl comp table.
Is it better to buy tickets or get on the guestlist for Vegas clubs?
While getting on the Las Vegas guest list is the vastly more popular method (since it's free) for guests to use as their method of entry, sometimes it's better for your group to purchase club tickets to the event that you want to attend in order to lock down your entry. Each party depends on the event and the venue. Also, for groups of 6 or more, you may find that buying bottle service is the better, more cost-effective option than spending money on general admission tickets. Contact us if you're unsure or need recommendations on what to do!
How do I get VIP Entry?
One of the services we offer to select groups is hosted VIP entry. Typically, only guests who buy bottle service get the privilege of getting expedited through the VIP Table entryway, but we can offer that service to non-table clients for a fee.
What are the best days of the week for Nightclubs?
Nightclubs are easily on their "A" game on peak nights, which are Friday and Saturday nights. During the week, club nights are considered industry nights, and while typically slower than a Saturday night, the "local's party" offers its own variety of awesome events. Each club only has a select day or two during the week that it is open, so if you're planning a mid-week Vegas trip, make sure to check our guide to see what's open!
What are the typical hours of operation for a Nightclub in Vegas?
Vegas clubs typically open at around 10 PM and close at about 3:30 AM - 4 AM. If the event you're attending has a headlining DJ, expect the artist to come on at about 1:00 AM - 3:00 AM. Live performers (like Hip Hop artists) typically don't come on until about 2–2:30 AM, so be prepared to wait if you want to see the artist perform. Thinking of keeping the party going? Like the ones detailed above, after-hours clubs typically start their nights around 2 AM and go on until sunrise. Strip clubs are a popular after-party spot as they are open 24/7. We offer VIP Entry and free limo pickup (among other perks) to strip clubs for those interested.
I'm in Vegas with a group of guys. Any advice on how we can round up girls for our table?
Las Vegas Girls are everywhere in nightclubs – literally everywhere. We encourage guests to build their own organic relationships with other Vegas visitors, but if you want, we can help connect you to ladies who hit us up and want to hang out at a table, or we can link you with the Las Vegas promoter girl guy.
Is limo transportation included with nightclub reservations?
Limousine Transportation isn't built into the reservation price for nightclub inquiries, but if you and your group are looking to charter a limo or party bus to take you to your next destination, we can definitely arrange that for you. Complimentary limo/party bus transport, however, is included with all Las Vegas strip club reservations.
I'm planning a bachelor/bachelorette party. What are the best things to do?
Planning a bachelor party or bachelorette party can be a daunting undertaking. Fortunately, we're here to help! Visit our guides to see what events we recommend for your guy or gal's last fling before the ring.

About Brian Pfeiffer & Surreal Nightlife
Independent hosting is a sexy but very serious business, especially in Las Vegas. You can't just be any person off the street and hope to work with these nightclubs; you need a gaming license, you must pass an FBI background check, go through a lot of bureaucracy, and own a legit company (State LLC) to do business with them. You also must have the pull, the right contacts, and relationships built on trust in order to work a deal.
I started in this business as a front door host in 2000, and 20 years later, I worked my way up to become a major player in the nightlife industry. While I still have ownership in a club in Chicago and own a large Chicago-based Halloween and New Year's Event Company my home has been in Las Vegas since February 2013 when The Hakkasan Group moved me to the city to be their promotions manager for both Palm Tree Beach Club and Hakkasan. Nearly one year into my Vegas Adventure, I had enough customers to start my own independent hosting company – Surreal LLC.
I do well in this business because my company is reputable, I exceed my customer's expectations, and most importantly, I have the proper licensing. I am licensed by the Nevada Gaming Commission; here is a snap-shot of Nevada gaming licenses and to my Clark County Professional Promoter business license. We also have 100's of 5-star reviews.
A few words of advice, before you book any Bottle Service, please make sure you are working with a licensed company like mine and someone who knows what they're doing and who will go above and beyond to make your experience an amazing one! Trust me when I say I know how to throw a great party. I live and breathe this business 24/7; it's my passion! Understand, we are working for YOU and not the clubs. With my years of event and clubbing experience and hundreds of connections, your Vegas Vacation will be better than anything you ever imagined.
Because of our strong relationships with the upper management and some of the VIP Hosts, we can deliver exceptional service.
