After Hours
After the Trade Show
The show floor closes, but Las Vegas is just getting started. Here are tips for making the most of your nights during SHOT Show.
Get on the Guest List Early
Convention weeks are some of the busiest in Las Vegas. Submit your guest list request at least a day in advance to guarantee your spot and skip the cover charge. Text us at (725) 999-9293 or use the form below.
Dress Code Matters
Coming straight from the convention floor? Most nightclubs enforce an upscale dress code. Men should swap sneakers for dress shoes and lose the lanyard. Business casual from your convention day usually works, but avoid athletic wear and hats.
Plan for Surge Pricing
Rideshare prices spike during major conventions. Stay at The LINQ and you can walk to Drai's Nightclub without an Uber. For strip clubs, take advantage of the free limo pickup — every club on our list sends one directly to The LINQ.
Thursday & Friday Are Peak Nights
Most SHOT Show attendees hit the clubs on Thursday and Friday nights. If you want a more relaxed experience, try an early weeknight or a daytime pool party. Pool parties run Friday–Sunday during the March through October season.
