Cinco de Mayo
May 2, 2025 – May 5, 2025 | May 1, 2026 – May 5, 2026
200,000+ estimated attendees
Cinco de Mayo in Las Vegas is one of the biggest nightlife weekends of early summer, drawing 200,000+ visitors across May 1–5, 2026. The Strip's top nightclubs and pool parties book premier spring talent for this high-energy celebration weekend. Friday May 1 is stacked across every tier: Diplo headlines XS at Wynn, John Summit commands LIV at Fontainebleau, Deorro takes OMNIA at Caesars Palace, Duke Dumont anchors Zouk at Resorts World, and Lunay headlines Hakkasan at MGM Grand — all on the same night. Saturday May 2 escalates further with Tiësto at OMNIA, The Chainsmokers at XS, Calvin Harris at Encore Beach Club, Kygo at Palm Tree Beach Club, and Alesso at Marquee running simultaneously. Pool parties launch the weekend each afternoon, with dayclubs booked as aggressively as the nightclubs. The result is one of the most talent-dense 72-hour nightlife windows in Las Vegas before Memorial Day Weekend.
