The one thing I’m doing with MY AfterParty list is updating it with all the other AfterParties I come across, in order for it to be a comprehensive list of ALL the AfterParties, listed in such a way so that you can hit several in a night! I will keep re-posting this as I add-in more AfterParties, so be sure to keep checking out the Blog as we approach NAB!
Note: Some parties are less formal; however, all guests of Las Vegas Nightclubs must be 21 years or older with valid proof of age and follow the appropriate Dress Codes: i.e., NO shorts, sneakers, flip flops, t-shirts or hats will be permitted; slacks/jeans, collared shirt and closed toe dress shoes for gentlemen are required. Nightclubs cannot admit patrons if the facility is at an admission hold due to fire code capacity. All entry is at doorman discretion.
