RE+ 2026 — Complete Attendee Guide
RE+ 2026 — formerly Solar Power International (SPI), Energy Storage International (ESI), and Smart Energy Week, now unified under one brand by SEIA and SEPA — is the largest clean energy trade show in North America. The November 16–19 edition at the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall draws approximately 40,000 professionals spanning the full clean energy ecosystem: utility-scale solar developers, battery storage manufacturers, residential installers, EV charging network operators, wind energy firms, hydrogen technology companies, and the investment capital and policy professionals who finance and regulate the sector. RE+ 2026 represents the show's most significant calendar shift in a decade — a move from its historical September window (when it ran as Solar Power International in Anaheim, California) to November in Las Vegas. The switch reflects both Las Vegas Convention Center's scale advantage for a show that has outgrown previous venues and a strategic calendar choice: the November 16–19 window lands immediately before the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 19–22). RE+ closes Thursday afternoon as F1 Race Week officially opens Thursday evening, creating a unique travel opportunity for attendees who extend their trip by even one night. The clean energy industry context for RE+ 2026 is significant. Solar installations in the United States surpassed 200 gigawatts of cumulative capacity in 2025. Utility-scale battery storage has become a standard procurement requirement for independent power producers and utilities operating in deregulated markets. EV charging infrastructure is expanding from highway corridors into workplace, multifamily, and retail categories. The IRA incentive framework continues to be the primary policy catalyst for deployment investment decisions. RE+ is where the companies, engineers, investors, and policymakers driving all of these markets gather to see what's next, close deals, and build relationships across the supply chain. This guide covers badge pickup and registration, show floor hours, first-timer logistics, hotel options within walking distance of the LVCC, and Las Vegas nightlife for all four evenings of the convention — Monday through Thursday, with special attention to Thursday November 19, when the F1 Race Week opening coincides with RE+ closing day.

Registration
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife GuideBadge Pickup — Location & Hours
Badge pickup and on-site registration for RE+ 2026 is located in the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall lobby, 3150 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89109. Pre-registered attendees can use the express kiosks with their confirmation QR code — found in the original RE+ registration confirmation email and also accessible through the RE+ mobile app. The kiosk process typically takes under two minutes when the QR code is pulled up in advance. Walk-up and first-time registration is available at the staffed counters to the left of the kiosk banks, but expect lines of 20 to 45 minutes during the 7:30–9:30 AM peak window on Monday morning. Badge pickup opens Sunday, November 15 — the day before the show — from approximately noon to 6:00 PM. Picking up your badge Sunday afternoon eliminates the Monday morning registration line entirely and lets you walk directly into the keynote and general session content when doors open Monday at 10:00 AM. If you arrive Sunday and have a hotel near the LVCC (Resorts World, Fontainebleau, or Wynn/Encore are all within 0.8 miles), the Sunday pickup is the single most time-efficient logistics move you can make. Download the RE+ mobile app before arriving — it contains the interactive floor map, education session schedules, exhibitor directory by technology category, and your badge QR code, all accessible offline once loaded.
Schedule
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife Guide Show Floor Hours
Education sessions, workshops, and policy forums may begin as early as 8:00 AM Monday through Thursday. Thursday is a significantly shortened day — show floor closes at 3:00 PM, giving attendees the earliest hard stop of the convention week and the most open Thursday evening schedule. Outdoor demonstration areas for ground-mount solar, tracker systems, and battery storage equipment may operate on separate schedules posted at the West Hall entrance. Check the RE+ app for session-specific start times, as keynote and plenary programming runs on a separate schedule from the exhibit floor hours.
Transportation
How to Get to RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife Guide
Parking
The LVCC has large surface lots and a parking garage surrounding the complex. Expect to pay $15–25 per day during major shows. Lots fill up fast — arrive before 9 AM or consider rideshare instead.
Public Transit / Monorail
The Las Vegas Monorail has a dedicated Convention Center station with direct service to Strip hotels from MGM Grand to the Sahara. A single ride is $5 and a full-day pass is $13. During peak convention hours the monorail is often faster than driving.
Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)
Uber and Lyft have a designated pickup and dropoff area on Convention Center Drive. Surge pricing is common during morning arrivals and evening departures — stagger your schedule to avoid the rush.
Walking from the Strip
The north end of the Las Vegas Strip is about a 15-minute walk from the LVCC. The monorail makes it easy to reach central and south Strip hotels in under 10 minutes.

Insider Tips
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife Guide Tips for First-Timers
- Download the RE+ mobile app before you arrive and build your floor plan route by technology zone — solar PV, battery storage, wind, hydrogen, EV charging, and grid infrastructure are in distinct areas of the West Hall. Walking the zones randomly wastes 40 to 60 minutes of show floor time that could be spent in target exhibitor meetings.
- Wear comfortable shoes you have already broken in. The LVCC West Hall is one of the largest exhibit spaces in North America and RE+ fills it. Attendees routinely log 15,000 to 18,000 steps per day. New dress shoes purchased for the trip are the most common source of mid-show pain.
- Bring a portable USB battery pack with at least 10,000 mAh capacity. Between navigating the floor map, scanning badges at exhibitor booths, photographing equipment spec sheets, and running the RE+ app, phone batteries drain significantly faster than a normal office day — especially if you are also coordinating evening dinner reservations and nightlife plans.
- The education and policy sessions are among the strongest programming at any clean energy industry event. Topics in 2026 include IRA incentive structures and their durability, FERC interconnection queue reform, utility-scale storage procurement contracting, residential installer business models in a maturing market, and hydrogen project finance. Plan your session schedule the evening before each day using the RE+ app — popular sessions with limited seating fill up quickly.
- Schedule your highest-priority exhibitor meetings for Tuesday and Wednesday — the two days with the longest show floor hours and the most complete booth staffing. Monday is a shorter day (10 AM opening) and exhibitor teams often spend the first hour in internal team briefings. Thursday closes at 3 PM, limiting available time.
- Visit the startup pavilion and innovation showcase on Tuesday afternoon after completing scheduled exhibitor meetings. RE+ is one of the primary debut venues for pre-commercial clean energy technologies — companies bringing new battery chemistries, solar module architectures, and grid software products often choose RE+ as their first industry trade show appearance.
- If you are an installer, contractor, or systems integrator, block the hands-on training sessions and product demonstration areas as mandatory schedule items — not optional additions. The outdoor demonstration zones at RE+ feature operating equipment you cannot evaluate from a booth conversation: actual tracker actuation, inverter startup sequences, and storage commissioning workflows that compress months of evaluation time.
- Network deliberately across the full ecosystem. RE+ is one of the few events where developers, manufacturers, financiers, utilities, EPCs, and policy professionals are in the same building at the same time. The cleanest business development strategy is to attend two to three evening networking events (most are hosted at Strip hotels and listed in the RE+ app) and use the show floor for scheduled follow-up conversations rather than cold prospecting.
- Thursday November 19 is RE+'s shortest day — the show closes at 3 PM. This creates the most open Thursday evening of any Las Vegas convention week. The F1 Race Week officially opens Thursday evening, with Dom Dolla headlining LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau at 10:30 PM. RE+ attendees who check out Friday morning are already in position for the best nightclub night of the week without any additional travel planning.
- For hotel logistics: Resorts World Las Vegas is the closest major hotel to the LVCC West Hall — approximately 5 minutes on foot. Fontainebleau Las Vegas is 12 minutes walking. Both have on-property nightlife (Zouk at Resorts World, LIV at Fontainebleau) that allows post-RE+ dinner-to-nightclub transitions without rideshare. The Las Vegas Monorail Convention Center station provides a direct rail link to the center Strip hotels — a single ride is $5 and takes approximately 8 minutes to the Bellagio/Paris stop.
- November weather in Las Vegas runs 55 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit during the day with lows in the mid-40s at night. The LVCC West Hall is heavily air-conditioned. A light jacket for transitions between the convention center and outdoors is appropriate. For nightclub evenings, standard club dress code applies year-round regardless of outdoor temperature — a jacket worn to the venue is checked at coat check.
- Plan your RE+ schedule around the F1 Race Week pricing transition. Hotel rates on the Strip step up significantly from Thursday November 19 evening onward as F1 Race Weekend demand activates. RE+ attendees who booked rooms for the convention window (Sunday check-in, Friday checkout) benefit from RE+ convention rates — typically 20 to 30 percent below what F1 Race Weekend visitors pay for the same properties starting Friday.
After the Show
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife GuideAfter Dark — Nightlife & After Parties
RE+ evenings in Las Vegas follow a pattern familiar to anyone who has worked a major trade show: the day's business development conversations continue over dinner, industry receptions give way to smaller group dinners, and the Strip nightlife absorbs whoever still has energy after the official programming ends. The clean energy sector's conference culture trends toward dinner-first networking, making the Strip's high-end restaurant corridor — accessible via Monorail or a 10-minute rideshare from any LVCC-area hotel — the social hub of the RE+ evening. The Thursday November 19 evening is the single most nightlife-rich night of the RE+ week: the convention closes at 3 PM, Dom Dolla headlines LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau for the F1 Race Week opening at 10:30 PM, and the convergence of RE+ final-night energy and F1 Race Week arrivals creates a Thursday atmosphere that significantly exceeds standard November weeknight Strip energy.
LIV Nightclub
Nightclub
At Fontainebleau (12-min walk from LVCC). Dom Dolla headlines Thursday November 19 for the F1 Race Week opener — the best nightclub night of the RE+ week by a wide margin.
Zouk Nightclub
Nightclub
At Resorts World, the closest major nightclub to the LVCC West Hall — walkable in 8 minutes. State-of-the-art production with November weeknight resident DJ programming.
Hakkasan Nightclub
Nightclub
DJ Franzen headlines R&Bae Wednesdays at Hakkasan (MGM Grand) — November 18 is the strongest headliner booking of the RE+ weeknight calendar. Easy Monorail access.
TAO Nightclub
Nightclub
Monday and Tuesday programming at The Venetian. TAO Mondays and TAO Tuesdays run throughout November at reduced weeknight pricing — good option for RE+ opening nights.
Marquee Nightclub
Nightclub
Marquee Mondays and Tuesdays at The Cosmopolitan with two-for-one drink specials in the early window. Center Strip location with easy Monorail access from the LVCC.
Sapphire Las Vegas
Gentlemen's Club
Free entry with our guest list plus complimentary limo pickup from any LVCC-area hotel. Open all four RE+ nights and accommodates convention groups of any size.
Nightlife Guide
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife Guide Nightlife — Night by Night
RE+ 2026 runs Monday through Thursday — a convention schedule that puts all four conference days on Las Vegas weeknights rather than the Friday-Saturday peak headliner window. The November 16–19 nightclub calendar is standard weeknight resident programming at the major Strip venues, with one significant exception: Thursday November 19, when the Formula 1 Race Week officially opens and Dom Dolla headlines LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau at 10:30 PM.
Monday, November 16 — RE+ Day 1
Monday evening is the opening night of RE+ and the start of standard weeknight Strip programming. TAO Nightclub at The Venetian runs TAO Mondays (10:30 PM) with resident DJ programming and the lowest door pricing of the week. Marquee Nightclub at The Cosmopolitan operates Marquee Mondays (10:00 PM) with two-for-one drink specials in the early window — one of the most accessible Monday night formats on the Strip. OMNIA Nightclub at Caesars Palace runs Monday programming at 10:30 PM with standard resident rotation. Zouk Nightclub at Resorts World is within walking distance of the LVCC for RE+ attendees staying in the North Strip corridor.
The best Monday strategy for RE+ attendees: light-to-moderate evening commitments. Most attendees are arriving Monday or have been at the show floor from 10 AM, and Monday evening energy at the Strip is lower than later in the week. TAO Mondays or a group dinner at any Strip hotel restaurant followed by Marquee is the practical Monday play.
Tuesday, November 17 — RE+ Day 2
Tuesday is the most accessible guest list night of the RE+ week. Marquee Nightclub continues with Tuesdays programming (10:00 PM) — two-for-one drink windows extended into early evening, strong guest list availability. TAO Nightclub runs Tuesday programming (10:30 PM). Tuesday guest list demand during RE+ week is moderate — 24-hour advance submission is adequate for both venues.
Wednesday, November 18 — RE+ Day 3 — Best Weeknight
Wednesday is the high-water mark of the RE+ weeknight nightlife calendar. DJ Franzen headlines R&Bae Wednesdays at Hakkasan Nightclub (MGM Grand) at 10:30 PM — Hakkasan's flagship Wednesday event runs consistently through November with a diverse crowd that absorbs convention attendees into the regular Las Vegas Wednesday nightlife population. OMNIA Nightclub and Marquee Nightclub both operate Wednesday programming. The energy at the Strip on Wednesday of RE+ week is higher than Monday and Tuesday because attendees are mid-show, deals are moving, and the group energy is at its peak.
Thursday, November 19 — RE+ Closing Day — The Best Night of RE+ Week
Thursday is RE+'s pivot point and the best nightlife opportunity of the entire convention week. RE+ closes at 3:00 PM — six hours before any nightclub opens — giving attendees time for a full dinner, group networking event, and still arrive at a nightclub before 11:00 PM without rushing. Dom Dolla headlines LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau Las Vegas at 10:30 PM for the F1 Race Week official opening night. This is the highest-profile headliner booking of the November 16–19 window: a Grammy-nominated Australian tech house producer holding a Fontainebleau residency through the full 2026 calendar year, with the F1 Race Week context elevating the room energy significantly beyond a standard Thursday night.
For RE+ attendees staying at Fontainebleau (12-minute walk from LVCC), the Thursday logistics are clean: convention closes 3 PM, hotel hotel dinner at Papi Steak or Toro, walk to LIV on-property at 10:30 PM. For attendees at Resorts World (walkable to LVCC and Zouk), the Monorail covers the 8-minute trip south to Flamingo/Caesars stop for OMNIA and Hakkasan access.
Strip Club Access During RE+ Week
Las Vegas strip clubs run full operations through the November convention calendar. Sapphire Las Vegas — the largest gentlemen's club in the United States at 71,000 square feet — offers complimentary limo pickup from LVCC-area hotels, placing RE+ attendees in the free transportation corridor without requiring rideshare coordination. Crazy Horse 3, Spearmint Rhino, Peppermint Hippo, and Hustler Club are accessible from the Strip via rideshare in under 15 minutes. NoCoverVegas provides free guest list access and complimentary limo for qualifying groups during all four RE+ evenings.
Pool Parties and Dayclubs
RE+ runs November 16–19 — well outside Las Vegas dayclub season (April through September). All major outdoor pool parties including Encore Beach Club, AYU Dayclub, OMNIA Dayclub, Palm Tree Beach Club, and Marquee Dayclub are closed for the winter season during RE+ week. Daytime entertainment options during the convention focus on the show floor, education sessions, and the LVCC's on-site food and retail corridors. Indoor pool programming at venues like Stadium Swim at Circa Resort operates year-round for sports viewing but is not a DJ dayclub format.
The Clean Energy Professional After-Hours Profile
RE+ draws a professional demographic with specific after-hours characteristics that shape Las Vegas nightlife patterns during convention week. The solar development, battery storage, and grid infrastructure community is concentrated in a 30-to-50 age range, heavily engineering and project-finance-oriented, and broadly familiar with Las Vegas as a conference destination — RE+ is not the average attendee's first Las Vegas trade show trip, and most are experienced Strip navigators from prior years at SPI or Smart Energy Week.
The clean energy sector's financial cycle shapes the RE+ social calendar in identifiable ways. The November window lands after Q3 project close-out and before year-end accounting cycles, which means many utility-scale solar developers, battery storage contractors, and independent power producers arrive in Las Vegas following the close of significant project milestones or procurement decisions. Power purchase agreement signings, interconnection queue position acquisitions, and utility-scale inverter procurement contracts — the deals that move hundreds of megawatts of clean energy capacity — frequently close in the September-to-October window before RE+ attendance is finalized. This creates a convention atmosphere with higher-than-average discretionary entertainment spend relative to the conference badge cost, with deal-team celebration dinners and nightclub bookings as standard post-close social formats.
The utility-scale solar and battery storage sector has its own informal social hierarchy at RE+. Executives from major independent power producers — developers operating multi-gigawatt portfolios across multiple interconnection regions — occupy the private dinner circuit at Carversteak at Resorts World, SW Steakhouse at Wynn, and Carnevino at The Palazzo during the first two evenings of the convention. Battery storage manufacturers, EPC contractors specializing in lithium iron phosphate and advanced battery chemistry deployments, and grid modernization software firms populate the mid-tier networking events organized by SEIA, SEPA, and their respective state chapter affiliates. The residential solar installer market, which has shifted dramatically toward battery-attached systems under the Net Energy Metering 3.0 frameworks in California, Texas, and other major markets, brings a distinct demographic: younger, more regionally concentrated, and more likely to mix nightclub visits with casual casino floor time than the utility-scale crowd.
A practical note on solar industry social culture: solar developer and EV charging network executives are broadly younger than the traditional energy sector and more comfortable with formal nightclub environments than legacy utility executives or petroleum sector professionals. An RE+ nightclub group at TAO Nightclub or Zouk tends to skew mid-career rather than senior-executive, with a social profile closer to the tech convention demographic than to trade-professional conventions like SEMA or World of Concrete. For NoCoverVegas guest list planning, RE+ groups typically range from 6 to 20 people, often request both a restaurant reservation and nightclub access in the same planning call, and arrive at venues with the understanding that the guest list eliminates the cover charge on the group rather than just the individual.
The F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix Extension Opportunity
The Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix overlapping RE+ 2026 adds a dimension that no previous November clean energy trade show edition has had. RE+ attendees who extend their Las Vegas stay by one or two nights gain access to one of the most concentrated headliner nightlife weekends in the city's annual calendar — at the same hotel rates their convention block secured before F1 demand pricing activated.
The Friday November 20 nightclub calendar features Martin Garrix at OMNIA Nightclub and John Summit at LIV Nightclub headlining simultaneously, with coordinated programming at Zouk Nightclub and Marquee Nightclub. Saturday November 21 adds David Guetta at OMNIA, Tiësto at LIV, Steve Aoki at TAO, and Lil Wayne at Drai's operating simultaneously — the highest headliner-density single evening in Las Vegas's 2026 calendar. These bookings are programmed to align with the international Grand Prix crowd whose per-capita nightlife spend exceeds even CES and Bitcoin Week in Las Vegas's seasonal hierarchy.
For RE+ attendees weighing the Friday flight home versus the Saturday departure, the calculation is: an incremental hotel night at a convention-rate property (typically $180 to $280 at Resorts World, Fontainebleau, or Wynn for the Friday shoulder night before F1 race-day rates activate on Saturday) plus access to the Martin Garrix and John Summit dual-headliner Friday night. RE+ convention hotel rates at north Strip properties typically remain in effect through Saturday morning checkout under blocks reserved before the F1 demand surge — attendees who booked through official convention room blocks are positioned within this protected rate window. The RE+ Thursday close at 3 PM, combined with the Dom Dolla LIV opening at 10:30 PM, means Thursday itself is the lowest-friction extension point: no separate travel planning, same hotel, same nightclub walk. Friday is the first full F1 weekend day, and staying through Friday morning checkout means attending the Martin Garrix and John Summit parallel booking — a nightlife combination that recurs nowhere in the November calendar outside Grand Prix week.
RE+ 2026 Las Vegas — Solar & Clean Energy Conference Nightlife Guide — FAQ
Where is RE+ 2026?
RE+ 2026 is held at the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall, 3150 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89109. The West Hall is the newest section of the LVCC, opened in 2021, with 1.4 million square feet of total space. The Convention Center Drive entrance faces north toward the Fontainebleau and Resorts World properties. Monorail service is available at the Convention Center station on the north side of the building.
What are the RE+ 2026 dates?
RE+ 2026 runs Monday, November 16 through Thursday, November 19, 2026. Show floor hours are Monday 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Tuesday and Wednesday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Thursday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Education sessions and workshops begin as early as 8:00 AM each day. Badge pickup opens Sunday, November 15 in the LVCC West Hall lobby.
Is RE+ free to attend?
Expo hall passes for the RE+ exhibit floor are available at no cost with pre-registration at re-plus.com. Conference passes covering the full education program, workshop sessions, policy forums, and keynote programming are priced separately — typically in the $500 to $1,500 range depending on registration tier and registration date. Early registration provides the largest discount on conference pass pricing. Expo hall-only registration is free for qualified industry professionals and requires creating a profile on the RE+ registration platform.
Where do I pick up my RE+ badge?
Badge pickup is in the LVCC West Hall lobby, 3150 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV 89109. Express self-service kiosks are available for pre-registered attendees — pull up your confirmation QR code in the RE+ app or your registration email before approaching the kiosk for a process that takes under two minutes. Staffed registration counters handle first-time registration and badge issues. Pickup opens Sunday November 15 from approximately noon to 6:00 PM. Picking up Sunday eliminates the Monday morning line entirely.
What should I wear to RE+?
Business casual is the standard for RE+ attendees across all days of the show. Comfortable, broken-in footwear is essential — the LVCC West Hall is large and daily step counts of 15,000 or more are common. Outdoor demonstration areas for solar, storage, and tracker equipment may require closed-toe shoes for safety compliance near operating equipment. For evening events and Las Vegas nightlife, standard club dress code applies: dress shoes or clean leather sneakers, collared shirts or blouses, dark jeans or trousers for men, elevated separates or dresses for women. Most RE+ business casual attire meets Las Vegas nightclub dress standards, provided footwear is appropriate.
Is RE+ the same as Solar Power International?
Yes. RE+ is the unified rebranding of Solar Power International (SPI), Energy Storage International (ESI), and Smart Energy Week — three separate shows that SEIA and SEPA combined into a single integrated clean energy event beginning in 2021. The RE+ name reflects the expanded scope of the event: solar PV remains the core, but storage, wind, hydrogen, EV charging infrastructure, and grid modernization are now primary programming areas rather than peripheral tracks. The brand consolidation also accompanied the geographic move from Anaheim, California to Las Vegas.
How do I get to RE+ from my Las Vegas hotel?
The Las Vegas Monorail is the most efficient option from center Strip hotels — the Convention Center station provides direct service and a single ride costs $5. From the Bellagio, Aria, or Cosmopolitan stop, the ride takes 8 to 10 minutes. The Monorail runs from 7:00 AM through midnight, covering all RE+ show hours. Rideshare from center Strip properties runs $8 to $15 and takes 5 to 10 minutes depending on traffic. Resorts World Las Vegas and Fontainebleau Las Vegas are 10 to 15 minutes walking from the LVCC West Hall entrance. Designated rideshare pickup is on Convention Center Drive on the north side of the West Hall.
What are the best hotels near the LVCC for RE+ 2026?
Resorts World Las Vegas is the closest major hotel to the LVCC West Hall — approximately 5 to 8 minutes walking. Zouk Nightclub and AYU Dayclub are on-property. Fontainebleau Las Vegas is 0.6 miles away (12-minute walk) with LIV Nightclub on-property — ideal for the Thursday November 19 Dom Dolla F1 opening night. The Venetian Resort is 1 mile south with TAO Nightclub on-property and strong restaurant options for client entertaining. Wynn Las Vegas and Encore are 1.2 miles from the LVCC. Note: XS Nightclub at Wynn is closed for renovation through December 31, 2026, reopening for New Year's Eve.
What happens in Las Vegas the week after RE+ 2026?
The Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 19–22) begins the same day RE+ closes. RE+ closes Thursday November 19 afternoon; F1 Race Week opens Thursday evening with Dom Dolla at LIV. The November 20–22 F1 Grand Prix weekend features Martin Garrix and John Summit headlining simultaneously on Friday, and David Guetta, Tiësto, Steve Aoki, and Lil Wayne performing across four venues simultaneously on Saturday race night — the most headliner-concentrated nightlife weekend in Las Vegas's annual calendar. RE+ attendees who extend through Friday access this lineup at RE+ convention hotel rates, which are typically 20 to 30 percent below what F1 Race Weekend demand pricing produces from Friday morning.
Are Las Vegas pool parties open during RE+ in November?
No. Las Vegas dayclubs and outdoor pool parties — Encore Beach Club, OMNIA Dayclub, Palm Tree Beach Club, TAO Beach, AYU Dayclub, and Marquee Dayclub — operate seasonally April through September and are closed during November. Nightclubs are fully operational. For daytime activities beyond the convention, Las Vegas resort spas, casino floors, and the LVCC-adjacent restaurant and retail corridors are the primary options. The Las Vegas Strip is walkable and Monorail-accessible year-round.
What is the Las Vegas Monorail and how does it help RE+ attendees?
The Las Vegas Monorail is an elevated rail system running along the east side of the Las Vegas Strip from the MGM Grand (south) to the LVCC Convention Center station (north). A single ride costs $5; a 24-hour unlimited pass is $13. The Monorail runs 7:00 AM to midnight Sunday through Thursday and until 2:00 AM Friday and Saturday. For RE+ attendees staying at center Strip hotels (Cosmopolitan, Aria, Bellagio, Paris), the Monorail provides a direct, traffic-free commute to the Convention Center station — significantly faster than rideshare during peak morning arrival hours when Convention Center Drive traffic builds. The trip from the Bellagio/Paris stop to the Convention Center takes 8 to 10 minutes.
What nightclubs are open during RE+ 2026?
All major Strip nightclubs operate during RE+ 2026 week (November 16–19). Thursday November 19 is the strongest night — Dom Dolla headlines LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau at 10:30 PM for the F1 Race Week opening. Wednesday November 18 is the best weeknight: DJ Franzen's R&Bae Wednesdays at Hakkasan (MGM Grand) is the highest-profile weeknight booking. TAO Nightclub (The Venetian) and Marquee Nightclub (The Cosmopolitan) both run Monday and Tuesday programming with lower weeknight cover charges. Zouk Nightclub at Resorts World is the most walkable nightclub from the LVCC West Hall. Note: XS Nightclub at Wynn Las Vegas is closed for renovation through December 31, 2026 — do not plan for XS during RE+ week.
Are Las Vegas pool parties open during RE+ week in November?
No. Las Vegas dayclubs and outdoor pool parties — including Encore Beach Club, OMNIA Dayclub, Palm Tree Beach Club, TAO Beach, AYU Dayclub, and Marquee Dayclub — operate seasonally from April through September and are closed during RE+ week in November. Indoor pool options exist at Stadium Swim at Circa Resort (sports viewing format, not a DJ dayclub) and at resort hotel pool areas for hotel guests. For outdoor daytime events, RE+ attendees focus on the show floor, education sessions, and the Convention Center campus.
How do I get from my Strip hotel to RE+ at the LVCC?
The Las Vegas Monorail Convention Center station provides direct service from the center Strip hotel corridor to the LVCC — a single ride costs $5 and takes approximately 8 minutes from the Bellagio/Paris station. The Monorail runs from 7:00 AM through midnight, covering all RE+ show hours. Rideshare (Uber, Lyft) from center Strip hotels runs $8 to $15 and takes 5 to 10 minutes. Attendees staying at Resorts World Las Vegas or Fontainebleau Las Vegas — both within 0.6 to 0.8 miles of the LVCC West Hall — can walk in approximately 10 to 15 minutes. There is a designated rideshare pickup area on Convention Center Drive adjacent to the West Hall entrance.
Does RE+ 2026 overlap with the Formula 1 Grand Prix?
Yes — RE+ 2026 closes Thursday November 19, the same day that F1 Race Week officially opens in Las Vegas. RE+ closes at 3:00 PM Thursday; Dom Dolla headlines LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau at 10:30 PM Thursday for the F1 Race Week opening night. F1 Grand Prix practice runs Friday November 20, qualifying Saturday November 21, and the race Sunday November 22. RE+ attendees who extend their stay through Friday can access the Martin Garrix (OMNIA) + John Summit (LIV) + Meduza (Zouk) Friday headliner concentration at their RE+ convention hotel rates — 20 to 30 percent below what F1 Race Weekend visitors pay from Friday forward.
