ASD Market Week (Summer) Nightlife Guide 2026
The best nightclubs, gentlemen's clubs, and pool parties to hit during ASD Market Week (Summer) in Las Vegas. Free guest list and complimentary ride for all ASD Market Week (Summer) attendees.
Overview
What Nightlife Is Like During ASD Market Week (Summer)
ASD Market Week (Summer) is one of the biggest events on the Las Vegas calendar, drawing over 45,000 attendees to the city each year during August. When the show floor closes, the energy shifts to the Strip's world-famous nightclubs, rooftop lounges, and gentlemen's clubs.
Convention weeks are some of the busiest nightlife periods in Las Vegas. Clubs often bring in top-tier headliners to capitalize on the influx of visitors, and venues fill up faster than usual. Getting on a guest list before you arrive is the smartest move you can make — it guarantees free entry and lets you skip the general admission line.
Since ASD Market Week (Summer) falls during August, Vegas pool season is in full swing. That means dayclubs and pool parties will be open, giving you the perfect daytime option before transitioning to nightclubs after dark.

Getting Around
Transportation from Las Vegas Convention Center to Nightlife
Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)
The most convenient option. Most nightclubs are a 5-15 minute ride from Las Vegas Convention Center. During convention weeks, expect slightly longer wait times and surge pricing around 10-11 PM. The designated rideshare pickup areas are well-marked at all major venues.
Free Entry (Strip Clubs)
Sign up through NoCoverVegas and get a free guest list entry at your hotel to any of our partner gentlemen's clubs. The guest list picks you up and drops you off right at the door — no cover charge, no hassle.
Las Vegas Monorail
The monorail runs along the east side of the Strip, connecting MGM Grand, Bally's/Paris, Flamingo, Harrah's/The LINQ, and the Las Vegas Convention Center. It's a great option if your nightclub is at one of these hotels. Single rides are $5; day passes are $13.
Walking the Strip
If your hotel is on the Strip and your nightclub is nearby, walking is a perfectly viable option. Most major nightclubs are inside casino-hotels. Just be aware that distances can be deceiving — what looks like a short walk on a map can easily take 20-30 minutes with pedestrian bridges and casino floor-throughs.
