Amongst the multitudes of day clubs and night clubs across the Las Vegas strip, there is a variety of venues for partygoers to revel in based on their preferences in choices between the megaclubs and more intimate sized venues. More recently, there’s an exciting new gem in sin city. With over 16 years in the making Fontainebleau Las Vegas officially opened its doors in December of 2023, holstering their crown jewels, LIV Beach and LIV Las Vegas. Fontainebleau is a globally renowned name in hospitality with a prestigious 70-year legacy with its start in Miami and becoming the dominating hospitality group on South beach and have now expanded its vision to the Las Vegas Strip aiming to provide a bespoke experience and to breathe new life into luxury.
Think extravagant and opulent, and that embodies LIV which is a high-energy nightclub that attracts a star-studded crowd. With world-class DJs, stunning visuals, and VIP bottle service, LIV offers an unforgettable party experience. The venue is known for its lavish interior, top-notch sound system, and frequent celebrity appearances. Calvin Harris, Tiësto, John Summit, Metro Boomin’, Party Favor, James Kennedy and Dom Dolla are currently a part of their A list residency.
Since opening less than a year ago, it has become one of the best nightclubs on the strip. Walking into the venue, a sophisticated and lavish design welcomes your eyes from the first few seconds, putting patrons into a daze with the intricate details and luxurious finishes. The high ceilings are accentuated with the chandelier like rig design with vibrant lights that are a sensory overload to the eyes. The sound system is state of the art as well, featuring a variety of Funktion-One speakers, including the Vero VX90 vertical column array speakers, F221 horn-loaded cabinets, and BR132 subwoofers. The total occupancy fits approximately 2000 guests which isn’t too small and too large, making it a very well rounded venue to party the night away without too much overcrowding. Amongst the dozens of VIP tables positioned across the venue, there remains a very sizeable dancefloor perfect to dance the night away with your friends. Another highlight of the layout is that even those who do not have table service can get a view from behind the DJ booth, adding into the overall experience. There is also a second floor in which you can get a birds eye view of the venue and as a relaxing area when you want to get away from the crowds. Being an upscale club, patrons are expected to upkeep the upscale fashion dress code, and are not allowed to wear sportswear, swimwear, or casual loungewear. Those seeking a premium experience can partake in bottle service which starts at $2,000, and bottles of alcohol start at around $750. VIP table prices vary depending on the night, group size, performer, and club busyness.
For those preferring a more laidback experience, LIV Beach is your spot. LIV Beach offers an exclusive, adults-only oasis by the poolside, making it the prime daylife spot on the Las Vegas Strip. This daytime oasis channels the allure of the French Riviera, making it a distinctive retreat for sunbathing and endless enjoyment. It’s a unique fusion of the vibrant energy of Miami with the opulent charm of Las Vegas and you feel it the moment you step in. Just like its night time counterpart, the architectural design in the venue belts out extravagance across the multi-level layout. The centerpiece of LIV Beach is a large pool, perfect for lounging and socializing. The total occupancy of the venue fits 2000 people and boasts a spacious 35000 square footage for patrons to thoroughly enjoy all aspects of the dayclub. Luxurious daybeds and cabanas are situated all across the venue, and even private pools for those who have booked a higher tier cabana. Besides guzzling on the liquor, patrons have a variety of food options ranging from seasonal fruit bowls, burgers, and sushi rolls. In terms of dress code, dress stylishly like you’re going to a pool and actually getting in the water (even if you don’t plan to). The energy levels are high, all across the venue, exuded from the tropical touches of luxury.
