Nightlife Near The Cosmopolitan

The Cosmopolitan sits in the dead center of the Las Vegas Strip, and that location makes it one of the best hotels for nightlife access in the city. Marquee Nightclub is in the building. Marquee Dayclub is on the roof. And within a 10-minute walk, you can reach five other major nightclubs without ever getting in a car.

The Cosmo also has a reputation for attracting a younger, design-conscious crowd. The hotel itself feels more boutique than mega-resort, with restaurants, bars, and lounges that serve as their own nightlife ecosystem before you even step into a nightclub.

On-Property: Marquee Nightclub

Marquee Nightclub occupies multiple levels of the Cosmopolitan with a main room, boom box room, and the intimate Library space. The 40-foot LED DJ booth is one of the most recognized visual elements in Vegas nightlife. Marquee runs Monday, Wednesday, and Friday through Saturday nights — more nights than almost any other club on the Strip.

Monday and Wednesday feature the Lowkey Library sessions with tech house and deep house for 200 people. Friday and Saturday bring headliner DJs and full production in the main room. Saturday also hosts Lowkey After Hours in the Library from 2 AM until sunrise — the most in-demand after-hours event on the Strip.

For Cosmo guests, the walk from your room to Marquee is through the casino floor, 3 to 5 minutes. The entrance is on the third level near the casino.

On-Property: Marquee Dayclub

Marquee Dayclub sits on the rooftop of the Cosmopolitan with multi-level pools and direct views of the Las Vegas Strip. Open Friday through Sunday during pool season (March through October), 11 AM to 6 PM. The rooftop location creates a unique experience — you are poolside 8 floors above the Strip looking out at the Bellagio fountains. No other dayclub has this vantage point.

Pre-Game Dining at The Cosmo

Beauty & Essex is a speakeasy-meets-restaurant concept behind a pawn shop facade. The Chandelier Bar spans three levels in the center of the hotel and works as a pre-club cocktail stop. Block 16 Urban Food Hall on the third floor handles quick, quality bites if you are short on time.
