Underwear night Wednesday and Friday – free well drinks and draught if you’re in your underwear

Are you going to Las Vegas any time soon? There’s a new gig in town, once a month – Down. Down had its grand celebration on March 25 at Ghostbar, located at the top of the Palms Casino and Hotel (AWESOME view of the Strip, especially three or four beers in). Vegas’ newest lesbian night was launched by DJ Lisa Pittman of CandyBar (the DJ there on Saturday nights).

I heard that the turnout was great, and the night was a success, so hoping this is one lesbian event that sticks around, hopefully until I head back to Vegas. But that won’t be for awhile…my liver has to recover, and bills have got to be paid, so it’s back to real life for me.

The next Down celebration is on April 29, kicking off Gay Pride and featuring live performances by God-des & She. More to come on Vegas Gay Pride in the coming week.

This is OLD news, girls. The party has been cancelled, I’ll keep you posted on what’s still happening in Vegas as I’m updated.

I’ve already mentioned the Luxor LGBT pool party, which was the first LGBT pool party on the Strip. Mandalay Bay – often dubbed Mandalay Gay for its attraction of same sex loving clientele – has followed suit with Splash Sundays at the South Lagoon Pool. Lay back in a cabana (book two weeks in advance, they go fast) or unwind on a lounge chair with a cocktail while you listen to DJ’s and check out the other beautiful people. The party goes from noon until 6 pm, and the cost for Mandalay Bay’s LGBT pool party is $10 for hotel guests and Las Vegas locals, or $20 for tourists.

Mandalay Bay has got to be the best pool in Las Vegas. It was actually voted just that back in 2006 (TripAdvisor.com), and has a wave pool, lazy river you can float down on inner tubes, three swimming pools, and tons of real sand. Now with the Splash Sundays, there’s really no reason not to hang out poolside, is there?

Right next door to Krave in Las Vegas is the lesbian dance club CandyBar. Well, a lesbian dance club on Saturdays, that is – Krave is the only dedicated gay bar on the Las Vegas Strip. CandyBar sits at 3663 Las Vegas Blvd.

DJs Joey Da Juice and Lisa Pittman spin some great tunes for girls to dance to. This place gets packed a little later in the evening, so hit up one of the many Las Vegas lounges for a pre-CandyBar martini. The crowd really goes wild when the go go dancers take the stage.

I’m planning a trip to Vegas sometime in the next few months, like I’ve mentioned before, it’s one of my favourite places to visit. One thing I actually haven’t done is take in a show – between the buffets, lounging by the pool, gambling and catching up with friends, it just wasn’t a priority. But, this time, I plan on checking out at least one Las Vegas show. I talked before about Elton John wrapping up his Vegas shows next year. Here are some of the performers taking the stage in Vegas in 2009 that I think are worth checking out: Continue Reading »
