As night falls, Electra transitions from a premium sports lounge into a full nightclub experience with resident DJs, VIP table service, and a dance floor atmosphere. Opened in 2018, the venue is recognized by The World's 50 Best Discovery program and has earned a reputation as one of Las Vegas' top luxury cocktail destinations. Open daily from 5 PM to 2 AM. The overall vibe at Electra Cocktail Club is best described as electra is the rare las vegas venue that works at 5 pm and at midnight for completely different reasons. the 40-foot screen is genuinely the best place in las vegas to watch a ufc card — palazzo resort quality at a corner bar. when the djs start at 9 pm and table service kicks in, the sports crowd transitions out and the nightclub crowd transitions in seamlessly. the world's 50 best discovery recognition is deserved — the cocktail program is taken seriously.

Vinyl Room opens August 2026 on the 63rd floor of Mandalay Bay — the same storied perch that hosted the Foundation Room for over 25 years — with a completely reinvented concept from Live Nation centered on vinyl culture and Las Vegas entertainment history. The 500-person venue features thousands of vinyl records on display, custom vinyl-deck audio equipment, and a 1970s Japanese listening lounge aesthetic with music memorabilia throughout. Open seven days a week to the public with an annual membership program available, Vinyl Room programs artists who've played Las Vegas, celebrating the city's entertainment legacy through a curated vinyl-centric soundtrack. An Asian-inspired food menu and signature cocktails accompany the music programming. At 63 stories above the Strip, the venue retains the same panoramic floor-to-ceiling views that made the Foundation Room iconic — Bellagio fountains, Paris Las Vegas, the High Roller Observation Wheel, and a Strip view that extends 40–50 miles to the Spring Mountains on clear nights. Private and special event bookings are managed through Live Nation's dedicated events platform. In contrast, the vibe at Vinyl Room leans toward a private club experience accessible to the public. far more intimate and curated than the strip megaclubs — 63rd-floor panoramic views, thousands of vinyl records, 1970s japanese listening lounge aesthetic. the music focus is broader than any dj-driven nightclub: celebrating las vegas's full entertainment legacy from sinatra through disco through hip-hop. annual membership gives regulars access that no megaclub vip program matches.

Planning Your Trip

How to Visit Both Venues

Most visitors to Las Vegas enjoy Electra Cocktail Club and Vinyl Room on different nights rather than trying to squeeze both into a single evening. Both venues are full-night experiences, and rushing between them means missing the best parts of each. If you have a two-night trip, plan Electra Cocktail Club for one night and Vinyl Room for the other. For longer trips, you might revisit your favorite or explore the remaining nightclubs on the Strip. NoCoverVegas offers free guest list at both, so there is no extra cost to doing multiple nights.

For transportation between Electra Cocktail Club (The Palazzo at The Venetian Resort) and Vinyl Room (Mandalay Bay (63rd Floor)), rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are the fastest option. Most rides between Strip venues take 5 to 15 minutes and cost $10 to $25 depending on surge pricing. Avoid walking between off-Strip venues at night — distances in Las Vegas are deceptive and the desert heat persists well into the evening during summer months. Taxis are available at all major hotel taxi stands, though rideshare apps typically offer shorter wait times and better pricing.
