Nightlife

Vegas by night. It's more than bright lights. It's a whole different after-dark world, a scene like no other.

From traditional casino lounges and cocktail bars to dance-till-dawn nightclubs featuring top deejays, Las Vegas will keep you partying.

Ultralounges are the latest trend in Vegas nightspots; they are stylish, intimate spaces where DJs spin cutting-edge tunes in a conversation-friendly environment while fashion-forward hipsters mingle with martinis in hand.

Vegas nightlife highlights:

• Experience Viva Vision and Fremont Street from Gold Diggers Lounge at the Golden Nugget downtown, with a spectacular 180-degree view of the lights below.
• For an unmatched view of the Bellagio fountains, and some of Vegas' best lounge performers, unwind at the Bellagio's Fontana Bar.
• Watch the crowds heading for the Center Bar from your sanctuary in the Viva Las Vegas Lounge at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
• Enjoy some of the finest old-school Vegas lounge acts at the Riviera or the Sahara.
• For those nights when you feel the dance floor calling, try Studio 54 in the MGM Grand, a reproduction of the NYC original; other notable party spots include Tryst at Wynn Las Vegas, Rain at the Palms and Risqué at Paris Las Vegas.
• Ultralounges are the hippest things to hit the Vegas scene, and they don't come much hipper than LAX at Luxor or Pure at Caesars Palace.
