After Hours
After the Convention
The show floor closes, but Las Vegas is just getting started. Here are tips for making the most of your nights during SAP Sapphire.
Submit Guest List 5–7 Days Out
SAP Sapphire draws industry professionals and conference attendees to Las Vegas — a crowd that moves fast on nightlife bookings. The same week that fills SAP Sapphire's session rooms also fills Strip guest lists. Submit your NoCoverVegas request before the conference opens to lock your spot. Text (725) 999-9293 or use the form below with your night, group size, and venue preference.
Industry professionals and conference attendees: Dress Code Reminder
SAP Sapphire's industry professionals and conference attendees arrive dressed for the show floor — which means badge lanyards, branded totes, and comfortable footwear that will not pass the nightclub door. Before leaving Planet Hollywood, swap the conference wear for dress shoes (men) or cocktail attire (women). Athletic wear, hats, and sneakers are turned away at OMNIA, XS, Hakkasan, and Marquee without exception.
Peak Night: Wednesday or Thursday
Convention attendees in Las Vegas split between nightclubs, casino entertainment, and strip clubs. Wednesday or Thursday is the highest-demand session — deals have been signed, speakers have wrapped, and the entire SAP Sapphire crowd is still in Las Vegas before weekend departures begin. If you want the full experience, wednesday or thursday at OMNIA Nightclub is it. The following nights thin quickly as early-flight attendees leave.
SAP Sapphire: Dayclubs for Networking
Pool parties are an underused extension of SAP Sapphire networking — the informal outdoor setting at Encore Beach Club, OMNIA Dayclub, or Marquee Dayclub removes the formality of badge-scanning lobbies. When industry professionals and conference attendees step off the specialized exhibitions show floor onto a pool party terrace, the conversation dynamic shifts entirely.
Nightlife Calendar
What's On in Las Vegas During SAP Sapphire
Las Vegas runs headliner nightlife events every weekend regardless of what convention is in town. Here is exactly what is happening at clubs near Planet Hollywood while you are in Las Vegas for SAP Sapphire — so you can plan your nights before you arrive.
EDC Las Vegas
Electric Daisy Carnival is the largest electronic dance music festival in North America, celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2026 with over 240 artists across nine stages at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Three consecutive nights — May 15, 16, and 17 — draw 170,000+ fans per night for world-class music, towering art installations, and the signature Ferris wheel backdrop. The festival runs nightly from 7 PM until 5:30 AM, blending headliner sets from Tiësto, Martin Garrix, Charlotte de Witte, FISHER, and John Summit with immersive carnival rides, LED-lit carnival performers, and Insomniac's signature production. Beyond the Speedway gates, EDC Week 2026 (May 13–19) transforms every major nightclub and pool party on the Las Vegas Strip into an EDM takeover for seven straight nights.

EDC Week
EDC Week 2026 is the biggest seven-day electronic music event in Las Vegas history, running May 13–19 and surrounding the Electric Daisy Carnival festival at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway (May 15–17). Every major nightclub and pool party on the Strip books a dedicated EDC Week lineup — Tiësto at LIV, The Chainsmokers at XS, Calvin Harris at Encore Beach Club, OMNIA Dayclub's grand opening weekend with FISHER and RÜFÜS DU SOL, Dom Dolla at LIV, Charlotte de Witte at Hakkasan, and 60+ headliners across seven nights. Over 400,000 attendees flood the Strip across the full week — the single biggest week of the Las Vegas nightlife calendar.

Mother's Day Weekend
Mother's Day Weekend in Las Vegas (May 9–11, 2026) is one of the Strip's most celebrated spring getaways, drawing multigenerational groups seeking world-class brunches, premiere shows, afternoon pool parties, and headline nightclub experiences to honor the moms in their lives. Mother's Day itself falls on Sunday, May 10, 2026, making this a full three-day celebration weekend that fills the Strip with families, couples, and friend groups from across the country. Las Vegas venues roll out dedicated programming across every format: rooftop brunches with panoramic Strip views, celebrity chef dining experiences, dayclubs hosting peak-season pool parties, and nightclubs featuring the same top-tier resident lineups that define the pre-EDC May stretch. The weekend opens Saturday, May 9, with a stacked dayclub circuit. TAO Beach at the Venetian hosts DJ Pauly D for a daytime pool party anchored by TAO Group's signature service and bottle presentation — one of the most photographed pool party experiences in Las Vegas. Encore Beach Club at Wynn brings Marshmello for a high-energy afternoon set, continuing the Wynn portfolio's position as the spring season's most consistent pool party destination. LIV Nightclub at Fontainebleau elevates Saturday night with Dom Dolla, whose deep house sets have made LIV the defining nightclub booking of 2026 — a Saturday Dom Dolla show at LIV during spring represents one of the most in-demand tickets on the Strip outside of EDC Week. Zouk at Resorts World books Lil Wayne for a hip-hop alternative, while Diplo anchors XS and Cedric Gervais headlines OMNIA. Mother's Day Sunday, May 10, shifts to a more celebratory register. The Legacy Club at Circa Resort hosts a dedicated Mother's Day celebration at noon, with floor-to-ceiling glass views of the Las Vegas skyline from the 60th floor — among the most spectacular settings for a spring brunch in the city. Pool parties at TAO Beach (Justin Credible), Palm Tree Beach Club (Lema), and Marquee Dayclub (DJ CLA) keep the afternoon energy alive, while XS Nightclub books DJ Vice for a Sunday night close. The timing of Mother's Day Weekend 2026 places it squarely in the sweet spot of the Las Vegas spring calendar: one week after Cinco de Mayo (May 1–5) and one week before EDC Week (May 15–17). Weather is typically ideal — mid-80s Fahrenheit with low humidity and minimal wind, exactly what pool season requires. Hotel rates during Mother's Day Weekend run 20–30% below the following EDC Weekend surge, making it one of the best-value May nightlife trips for visitors who want peak-season Strip energy without peak-season pricing.

Insider Guide
SAP Sapphire at Planet Hollywood: What to Know
About SAP Sapphire. SAP's flagship annual conference for enterprise software, ERP, cloud, and business intelligence. SAP Sapphire 2026 is in Orlando, FL (May 11-13). The conference has been held in Las Vegas — when it returns, enterprise tech professionals fill the Strip's restaurants and nightclubs. The convention draws around 20K attendees to Orange County Convention Center, Orlando (has previously been held in Las Vegas) each May-June, concentrated in the tech and enterprise sector. Las Vegas venue operators recognize SAP Sapphire as one of the busier convention weeks of the year: guest lists fill 24 to 48 hours before target nights, and cover charges at walk-up are higher than on a standard weekend.
Planet Hollywood for SAP Sapphire attendees. Planet Hollywood sits right in the center of the Strip surrounded by nightlife. OMNIA, Drai's, and Marquee are all within a five-minute walk. The Miracle Mile Shops add dining and entertainment options to your night. One of the best locations for clubgoers who want everything within reach. Planet Hollywood sits 15 min ride from Orange County Convention Center, Orlando (has previously been held in Las Vegas) — a standard 10-to-15-minute rideshare from the show floor without convention-week traffic. As a mid-range-tier option, Planet Hollywood attracts mid-level attendees and regional buyers attending SAP Sapphire. The $39/night resort fee covers amenities including pool access, fitness facilities, and Wi-Fi.
Nearby nightclub access from Planet Hollywood. Planet Hollywood does not have a major nightclub on property, but its Strip location puts OMNIA Nightclub (5 min walk) within reach. The nearest options: OMNIA Nightclub (5 min walk), Drai's After Hours (5 min walk), Marquee Nightclub (5 min walk). For SAP Sapphire groups, this still means one direct rideshare from the hotel without navigating the Strip on foot after a full day on the show floor. Guest list via NoCoverVegas is free at all of these venues — submit before the convention starts.
Nightclubs in May-June. SAP Sapphire in May-June falls outside Las Vegas's pool party season, which concentrates convention nightlife entirely into late-night venues. OMNIA Nightclub, XS, Hakkasan, Zouk, LIV, and Marquee all program year-round regardless of season. May-June nightclub bookings run the standard Las Vegas headliner rotation with no off-season thinning. Check the NoCoverVegas May-June calendar for specific headliner dates overlapping the SAP Sapphire window.
Strip clubs during SAP Sapphire from Planet Hollywood. Las Vegas strip clubs are the most convention-compatible late-night option because every major club — Sapphire, Hustler Club, Spearmint Rhino, and Peppermint Hippo — sends complimentary transportation directly to Planet Hollywood. No rideshare required, no cover charge, and a host at the door expecting your group by name. For SAP Sapphire groups with mixed preferences, Sapphire's 71,000-square-foot facility operates more like a nightclub — multiple bars, performance stages, and VIP sections that accommodate groups where not everyone is a strip club regular. The free limo from Planet Hollywood is available every night of SAP Sapphire week. Text (725) 999-9293 to confirm pickup.
Who attends SAP Sapphire. SAP Sapphire draws industry professionals and conference attendees, giving it a distinct after-hours dynamic compared to other Las Vegas conventions. The show focuses on specialized exhibitions, education sessions, and networking events. Convention attendees in Las Vegas split between nightclubs, casino entertainment, and strip clubs. Guest lists fill fastest on the penultimate evening of the show — when deals are finalized and the full group is still in town. Planet Hollywood's 64,000 sq ft casino floor provides a natural decompression point between the convention center and the nightclub — the transition from badge lanyard to casino floor to nightclub is a convention-week ritual that becomes routine by day two. From Planet Hollywood, every nightclub on the Strip is a direct rideshare from a single hotel address, which simplifies group logistics after a full day at the show. Lock in your guest list before Wednesday or Thursday — that is the night SAP Sapphire demand peaks.
Book Before SAP Sapphire Opens
SAP Sapphire fills guest lists 24–48 hours before peak nights — faster than a normal Las Vegas weekend. Submit your NoCoverVegas request the same week you book Planet Hollywood, not the night before. Text (725) 999-9293 with your arrival date and group size to confirm.
Convention Attire → Club Attire
Industry professionals and conference attendees in Las Vegas for SAP Sapphire arrive ready for the show floor, not the nightclub door. Leave badge lanyard, conference footwear, and trade gear at Planet Hollywood before heading out — dress shoes and a collared shirt are the minimum at OMNIA Nightclub.
Peak Night at Planet Hollywood: Wednesday or Thursday
Convention attendees in Las Vegas split between nightclubs, casino entertainment, and strip clubs. For SAP Sapphire groups staying at Planet Hollywood, wednesday or thursday is the night that matters. The full convention crowd is still in Las Vegas, energy is at its peak, and the venues within reach of Planet Hollywood are fully programmed. Lock in your guest list for wednesday or thursday first.
Planet Hollywood Group Coordination
Convention groups scatter across the SAP Sapphire show floor all day — coordinating nightlife separately creates split parties and different entry queues. Text us your full group size and hotel once; we coordinate a single NoCoverVegas reservation that covers everyone staying at Planet Hollywood without individual sign-ups.
