Where to go? What to do? We’ve rounded up the newest ways to drink and be merry during your vacation in Las Vegas. You’ll want to check all these out:
• Newly opened Juliet Cocktail Room at The Venetian is a posh spot for drinking and socializing. Victorian-inspired décor mixed with modern touches in the lounge creates a beautiful spot to enjoy live music as well as a mashup of genres from hip-hop to rock. And this cocktail menu is one that shouldn’t be missed—one-of-a-kind, Instagrammable, innovative cocktails that deserve your sipping attention.
• Cabo Wabo Cantina at Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood Resort recently introduced fall cocktails to its menu, like the pumpkin spice margarita, Kentucky cold brew, autumn gin and tonic and a signature Bloody Mary. Each cocktail is priced at a reasonable $10.
• With Mexican Independence Day musical celebrations happening all over the city this week, drink specials get in the mix, too, starting with the Tequila Tasting Extravaganza happening at Jalisco at Resorts World on Sept. 16. For just $65 per person, guests are treated to an open bar and tequila tasting stations, crafted bites like street tacos and ceviche, mariachi bands and tequila experts, who will educate and guide guests through the experience. And from Sept. 15-17, stop by Casa Calavera at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas to enjoy drink specials like the Michelada, Golden Eagle and Agave Dreams; there are also tequila and mezcal shooters for $14 and $16, respectively.
• Shady Grove Lounge at Silverton kicked off its Cider Fest for the fall season, and guests can order flights of hard ciders on tap, each with its own taste and style. At the lounge, which offers pool and mini bowling, pair the ciders with light bites like cheese curds, giant soft pretzels and apple cider puff pastry.

• Trustworthy Brewing Co. at The Grand Canal Shoppes recently released a special anniversary brew in honor of the bar and restaurant’s fourth anniversary. The double dry-hopped hazy IPA, named Another Trip to the Strip, features 100% Citra hops and gives off notes of citrus, sweet peach and grapefruit.
• Treasure Island recently opened the Big Chill Margarita Bar. Various-sized cups even include a giant 48-ounce yard, and you can fill it with frozen margarita recipes like Mango Madness, Joe’s Perfect Lemonade and Blue Hawaiian.
• Check out the new ice sculpture, a Nordic Viking ship, inside Minus5 Icebar at The Shoppes at Mandalay Place. Bundle up and step inside the bar to also enjoy other sculptures that include life-size ocean waves. Guests can capture each other on camera “riding” the waves and sitting inside the boat.
• Head to the AREA15 complex and make a stop by the Lumin Café and Patio Bar at Illuminarium for adult, boozy milkshakes. Yummy flavors include PB&J, Cookie Dough, Berry, Berry Good and more.
• Über-trendy STK Steakhouse at The Cosmopolitan amps up the weekends (Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.) with brunch cocktails like red sangria, espresso martinis and tequila sunrises. Guests can order spritzes three different ways or imbibe on Bottles & Boards packages for $249 each—charcuterie is paired with a bottle of bubbly or vodka or tequila.
• With all that drinking, check out one of the Radiance Wellness Program classes offered at AREA15 inside The Portal, an immersive, projection-mapping space. On Sept. 14 at 7 p.m., enjoy Ecstatic Dance Las Vegas, a two-and-a-half-hour experience that includes live ecstatic dance to DJ sets and a sound healing and closing circle. On Sept. 18 at 7 p.m., check out Entheo, a one-hour soulful journey that includes sound baths, guided meditation, breath work, a live DJ, elemental rituals and more.
