Thursday nights at Ghostbar mean 55 stories up, with the entire valley spread out below in every direction—Red Rock's silhouette to the west, the Strip's glow to the east, the sprawl of downtown to the north. DJ Desire Recs takes over the booth for the night, keeping the energy moving across the space and out onto that famous outdoor deck where the desert air and city lights make for a pretty solid backdrop no matter what's playing.

Doors open at 9pm, and the first couple hours come with a deal on Ketel One vodka cocktails, so there's reason enough to show up early and claim a spot on the patio before it fills in. It's a smaller-scale night by Vegas nightclub standards—more about the view and the vibe than bottle-service spectacle—which makes it an easy pick if you want music, a skyline, and room to actually talk to whoever you came with. 21 and up, as with most things at this altitude.
