Tay James takes the booth at Hakkasan, bringing the kind of seamless blend of hip-hop, R&B, and mainstream club anthems that's made him a go-to name behind the scenes of some of pop's biggest tours. Known for his work as Justin Bieber's longtime tour DJ, Tay James translates that same energy to the nightclub setting, reading the crowd and building sets that move fluidly between chart-toppers and deeper cuts.
Hakkasan's multi-level space provides the backdrop, with its sharp lighting design and heavyweight sound system giving every drop and transition room to breathe. Expect a mix of bottle service regulars posted up at their tables and a packed dance floor moving together under shifting colored light, the kind of scene where the music and the room feed off each other. The MGM Grand venue has built its reputation on nights exactly like this one, pairing skilled DJs with a setting designed for extended dance floor sessions.
