Vegas Strip Club Tips for First Timers
Everything you need to know before your first visit to a Las Vegas gentlemen's club — no fluff, no judgment, just the real talk that will save you money and help you have a great time.
The Basics
What to Expect at a Vegas Strip Club
If you have never been to a Las Vegas gentlemen's club, it is natural to feel a mix of excitement and uncertainty. Here is the truth: the top clubs in Vegas are more like high-end nightclubs than anything you have seen in movies. They are massive, well-lit (by club standards), professionally run, and full of people having a genuinely good time.
Vegas strip clubs are a multi-billion dollar industry. The venues invest millions in sound systems, lighting rigs, interior design, and staffing. You are walking into a professional entertainment venue — not some sketchy dive bar. The staff is trained, the security is tight, and the experience is designed to make you feel like a VIP from the moment you walk in.
That said, it is a unique environment with its own unwritten rules. Understanding how things work before you arrive means you will spend less, avoid awkward situations, and actually enjoy yourself. That is what this guide is for.
One important distinction for first-time visitors: Las Vegas has both topless clubs (where entertainers perform topless but retain bottoms) and fully nude clubs where no alcohol is served. The majority of high-profile venues — Sapphire, Crazy Horse III, Spearmint Rhino, Peppermint Hippo, and Hustler Club — are topless with full bars, which gives you the best overall experience. The one exception is Palomino Club, the only fully nude, full-bar club in the state, operating under a grandfather clause. Know which type you are visiting before you arrive so there are no surprises at the door.
The Arrival
When you arrive, you will check in at the front door where security verifies your ID and collects the cover charge (unless you are on our guest list). A host will walk you in and seat you. If the club is busy, tip the host $10-20 and you will get a better table closer to the main stage.
The Layout
Most Vegas gentlemen's clubs are massive — Sapphire alone is 71,000 square feet. Expect a main stage with tip rails, satellite stages, a full bar area, VIP seating sections, private dance rooms, and often a separate VIP or champagne room. Take a lap around the club when you first arrive to get your bearings.
The Entertainers
Vegas attracts top-tier talent from around the world. Entertainers rotate between stage performances and walking the floor. They will approach your table and introduce themselves. This is completely normal — it is their job. Be polite, make conversation, and do not feel pressured. A simple "Not right now, thank you" is perfectly fine.
The Drinks
Full bars serve everything from beer to top-shelf cocktails. Expect to pay $12-20 per drink — similar to nightclub pricing. Some clubs offer two-drink minimums. Cocktail waitresses circulate regularly. Tip $2-5 per drink and you will get attentive service all night.
The Music and Vibe
These are not seedy bars. The top Vegas gentlemen's clubs feel like high-end nightclubs with production-quality sound, professional lighting, and DJ-curated playlists. Expect a mix of hip-hop, pop, and EDM. The energy builds throughout the night, peaking between midnight and 2 AM.
Preparation
Before You Go
The difference between a great night and a mediocre one almost always comes down to preparation. These six things take 15 minutes and will save you hours of hassle and hundreds of dollars.
Bring Cash — Lots of Small Bills
This is the single most important thing you can do. Hit an ATM at your hotel before you leave. Bring at least $200 in small bills — $1s for stage tips, $5s and $20s for everything else. In-club ATMs charge $10-15 per withdrawal and give you large bills that are useless at the stage. Plan ahead.
Know the Dress Code
Vegas gentlemen's clubs enforce a dress code, but it is more relaxed than nightclubs. Collared shirts, nice jeans or slacks, and closed-toe shoes will get you in everywhere. Avoid athletic wear, tank tops, flip-flops, shorts, and anything with visible logos or team jerseys. When in doubt, dress like you are going to a nice dinner.
Bring a Valid ID
You must be 21 or older. Bring a government-issued photo ID — driver's license or passport. Expired IDs will be rejected. If you are visiting from another country, bring your passport. Every person in your group needs their own valid ID at the door.
Eat Before You Go
Most guys make the mistake of showing up on an empty stomach. You will be drinking, and the combination of alcohol and an exciting atmosphere can hit hard. Eat a solid meal before you head out. Some venues like Treasures have on-site restaurants, but eating in advance is cheaper and smarter.
Set a Budget and Stick to It
Decide what you are willing to spend before you walk through the door. The atmosphere inside is designed to loosen your wallet — dim lights, loud music, beautiful women, flowing drinks. A realistic budget for a first-timer is $200-400 for the night including drinks, tips, and entertainment. Leave your credit cards at the hotel if you need to.
Use a Guest List for Free Entry
Cover charges at the door run $30-50 per person. That is $150-250 for a group of five before you have even had a drink. Sign up through NoCoverVegas and skip the cover entirely. You also get a free limo ride from your hotel — that saves another $40-80 on rideshare.
Dress Code by Venue — What Each Club Actually Enforces
Every major Las Vegas gentlemen's club enforces “business casual,” but how strictly varies by venue. Here is the practical breakdown so you know exactly what to wear before you arrive — and which clubs give you more or less leeway.
| Venue | Dress Code |
|---|---|
| Sapphire Las Vegas | Business casual |
| Crazy Horse III | Smart casual |
| Spearmint Rhino | Business casual — strictly enforced |
| Peppermint Hippo | Smart casual |
| Hustler Club | Smart casual |
| Palomino Club | Dressy casual |
No athletic wear, flip-flops, or shorts at any venue. Closed-toe shoes required everywhere. When in doubt: collared shirt plus dark jeans gets you in anywhere on this list.
Inside the Club
At the Club — How to Navigate Your Night
You are through the door, you have got a drink in hand, and the music is pumping. Here is how to handle every situation you will encounter inside.
Sit at the Stage Rail
If it is your first time, spend at least 20-30 minutes at the stage rail. This is where the main performances happen and it is the best way to experience the energy of the club. Have a stack of $1s ready. Tip every performer — it is expected and it sets a good tone for your night.
Understand Lap Dance Pricing
Standard lap dances run $20-40 per song depending on the venue. The entertainer will tell you the price before you start — if she does not, ask. Songs last about 3-4 minutes. Multi-song packages are sometimes available. Always confirm the total cost upfront. There should be zero surprises when it is time to pay.
The VIP Room Is Optional
Entertainers will offer VIP room experiences starting at $200-500+ for 15-30 minutes. This is a more private, extended experience. It is completely optional and there is zero obligation. If you are interested, negotiate the price and duration before you go back. If you are not interested, politely decline.
Talk to Your Waitress
Your cocktail waitress is your best friend in the club. She knows the venue inside and out. Tip her well on the first round ($5-10) and she will take care of you — faster service, heads-up on specials, and she can recommend entertainers based on your vibe.
Do Not Be Afraid to Say No
Entertainers are salespeople. They are friendly, charming, and very good at their jobs. But you are never obligated to buy a dance, go to VIP, or keep buying drinks. A polite "No thank you" is all it takes. Do not feel guilty — they hear it dozens of times a night and will move on without any hard feelings.
Keep Your Phone in Your Pocket
Photography and recording are strictly prohibited in every Vegas gentlemen's club. Security will confiscate your phone or ask you to leave if you are caught taking photos or videos. Keep your phone away and be present. You can take photos in the lobby or outside.
Pro Tip: The Best Time to Go
Vegas gentlemen's clubs are open late — most run until 4-6 AM. The sweet spot for first-timers is arriving between 10 PM and midnight. You get the full experience without the late-night crowd surge. Weeknights (Tuesday through Thursday) offer more personal attention, better table availability, and sometimes drink specials. Fridays and Saturdays have the biggest talent lineups but also the biggest crowds. If it is your first time, a Thursday night gives you the best of both worlds.
Tipping Guide
Tipping by Situation
Tipping at a strip club is not just politeness — it is the mechanism that controls your entire experience. The quality of your night tracks almost directly with how well you tip and when. Understand the who, when, and how much for every person you will encounter.
The most important tip you will leave all night is the first round with your cocktail waitress. A generous first-round tip signals that you are worth prioritizing for the rest of the night. The difference between a waitress who checks on you every 20 minutes and one who disappears for 45 minutes is almost always that initial $5 versus that initial $1.
Door Host / Check-In
$5–10
When: On arrival if they seat you quickly or upgrade your table
Why: Hosts control table placement. A tip at check-in gets you a better position for the entire night.
Cocktail Waitress
$2–5 per round (double on round one)
When: Every round — especially the first
Why: Your waitress determines drink speed and service quality for the whole night. A $10 tip on round one pays dividends for four hours.
Bartender
$2–5 per drink
When: Each time you order at the bar
Why: Standard hospitality etiquette. Keeps drinks coming fast and builds rapport.
Stage Performers
$1–2 per performer
When: During their stage set — walk up and place bills on the stage
Why: Stage tips are visible and expected. Not tipping at the stage is one of the most obvious tells of a first-time visitor.
Lap Dance
$5–20 on top of the quoted price (discretionary)
When: After the dance ends, if you genuinely enjoyed it
Why: The quoted $20–40 is the base rate. An additional tip signals appreciation and matters if you want to see that entertainer again.
VIP Room
15–20% of the total cost
When: At the end of the VIP session, before you return to the main floor
Why: VIP rooms represent significant income for entertainers. On a $300 room, tip $45–60. Skipping the tip in VIP gets noticed.
Valet / Parking
$5–10
When: When you retrieve your vehicle at the end of the night
Why: Standard Las Vegas valet etiquette regardless of venue.
The Psychology of Tipping Well
Tipping consistently beats tipping big once. A guest who tips $2 on every drink and $1 on every stage performer throughout the night will have a noticeably better experience than someone who throws $20 at something once and then disappears for two hours. Consistency signals that you understand the environment. It earns you faster service, more attention from entertainers, and the invisible VIP treatment that comes from being recognized as someone worth taking care of.
Your Wallet
Money Tips — How to Budget Your Night
Strip clubs are designed to separate you from your money. That is not cynicism — it is business. Understanding the economics means you stay in control and actually enjoy spending what you choose to spend.
Skip the In-Club ATM
This is the biggest money trap in every strip club. In-club ATMs charge $10-15 per withdrawal with terrible exchange rates. Some charge flat fees on top of percentage fees. Bring your cash from your hotel ATM or bank before you leave. If you run out, that is your signal to call it a night.
Watch for the Two-Drink Minimum
Some clubs require a two-drink minimum purchase upon entry. This is separate from the cover charge. At $12-20 per drink, that is $24-40 right away. Factor this into your budget. Ordering beer instead of cocktails can save you $5-10 on the minimum.
Negotiate VIP Before You Go Back
Never agree to VIP room pricing in the moment. Ask the entertainer exactly what the time and cost will be before you leave the main floor. Get a clear answer on duration, price, and what is included. If the answer is vague, that is a red flag. The best entertainers are upfront about pricing.
Bottle Service Can Save Money for Groups
It sounds counterintuitive, but for groups of 4 or more, a bottle ($300-800 depending on the brand and venue) often costs less than everyone buying individual drinks all night. Plus you get a reserved table, a dedicated waitress, and VIP treatment. Do the math for your group size.
The Cover Charge Is 100% Avoidable
The $30-50 cover charge is pure profit for the club. It is also completely avoidable. NoCoverVegas gets you on the guest list for free entry at every major gentlemen's club in Las Vegas. For a group of five, that is $150-250 saved before you even sit down.
Tip Smart, Not Just Big
You do not need to throw money around to have a great time. Tip $1-2 per stage song, $2-5 per drink, and $5-10 on each lap dance. Tipping consistently and respectfully gets you better treatment than one big splash followed by nothing. Read our full tipping guide for exact amounts.
Realistic Budget Breakdown
Without NoCoverVegas guest list, add $30-50 for cover and $40-80 for rideshare. That is $70-130 extra per person.
Rules of the Game
Safety & Etiquette
Vegas gentlemen's clubs are safe, well-regulated environments. But there are rules — both written and unwritten — that every first-timer needs to understand. Follow these and you will have zero problems.
Consent Is Non-Negotiable
Every club has strict rules about physical contact during dances. These rules vary by venue — some allow more contact than others. The entertainer will tell you what is and is not allowed. Follow her lead. If she says do not touch, do not touch. Violating these rules gets you removed from the club immediately, no refund, no second chance.
Respect the Staff — All of Them
Treat every person in the building with respect — entertainers, bartenders, waitresses, hosts, security, and other guests. These are professionals doing their jobs. Being rude, aggressive, or disrespectful will get you escorted out. The clubs have zero tolerance for bad behavior.
Do Not Get Too Drunk
This is the number one way first-timers get into trouble. Pace yourself. The combination of excitement, loud music, and a constant flow of drinks can sneak up on you fast. Clubs will cut you off and ask you to leave if you are visibly intoxicated. Worse, drunk decisions lead to overspending you will regret in the morning.
Keep Track of Your Spending
It is easy to lose track of money in a dark club with loud music. Keep a mental count of what you have spent. If you brought $300 in cash, check your pocket every hour. When you are down to your last $40-60, that is cab-and-tip money — time to wrap up. Do not dip into your "tomorrow money."
Watch Your Belongings
Keep your wallet in your front pocket, not your back pocket. Do not leave your phone on the table when you walk to the bar. Do not flash large amounts of cash. Vegas clubs are generally safe, but common sense applies anywhere you are carrying cash in a crowded environment.
Use the Free Limo Home
Getting home safely is just as important as getting there. NoCoverVegas provides free limo service to the club, and most venues will help arrange your ride back. Do not drive. Do not walk. Use the limo, call an Uber, or have the club call you a cab. Getting a DUI in Vegas will cost you $5,000+ and ruin your trip.
Here is the bottom line on etiquette: treat everyone in the building with the same respect you would give anyone at their workplace. The entertainers are skilled professionals. The staff is there to make sure you have a good time. If you act right, you will be treated like a king. If you act like a jerk, you will be shown the door.
One more thing — look out for your friends. If someone in your group has had too much to drink or is spending way more than they planned, step in. A good friend saves you from a $2,000 VIP room tab at 3 AM that seemed like a great idea after eight whiskeys. That is what your crew is for.
Timing Strategy
What Time You Arrive Changes Everything
Vegas gentlemen's clubs run until 4 to 6 AM, but the experience shifts dramatically by the hour. A strategic arrival gets you more for your money and avoids the chaotic late-night crunch that catches most first-timers off guard.
The early-bird window. Fewer guests mean more personal attention from entertainers who have not split their time across a full house. Best moment to secure your ideal table — stage rail or prime booth. Drink service is fastest. Some venues run pre-midnight specials. Downside: not every entertainer has arrived yet, so the energy is still building.
The optimal window for first-time visitors. Full entertainer lineup is on the floor, energy is high, and the crowd has not hit peak density. You can move freely, grab stage rail seats, and have real conversations. If you could pick one time slot, this is it — arrive at 10 PM on a Thursday for the ideal first experience.
Maximum energy, maximum crowd, maximum everything. Tables fill up. Stage rail gets competitive. Entertainers rotate faster across more guests. Great if you want the full high-energy Las Vegas experience. If you arrived at 10 PM, you already have your table and waitress locked in, and can ride the peak from a comfortable position.
The committed crowd. Fewer casuals, more regulars, entertainers getting more selective. This is where the most expensive VIP decisions get made — often by guests who have been drinking for five hours. First-timers should plan to wrap up by 2 AM. The version of you at 3 AM has worse judgment and a thinner wallet than the version at midnight.
Best First-Timer Window
10 PM on a Thursday. Full energy, full entertainer roster, reasonable crowd size, and weeknight pricing advantages. You get the complete Las Vegas strip club experience without the Saturday mayhem — and Friday's talent lineup often begins building on Thursdays at the major venues.
Group Tips
Going with Friends — Group Dynamics
Whether you are here for a bachelor party, a group of friends, or flying solo, the approach is different for each scenario. Here is what actually matters for each group type.
Designate a Group Treasurer
Before you walk in, one person collects a shared fund — $40 to $60 per head covers communal tips, shared rounds, and incidentals. This prevents the uneven-spending problem where someone runs dry mid-night while others still have cash. The treasurer handles group expenses; everyone manages their personal spend on top.
Set a Meeting Point Before You Split Up
Large clubs like Sapphire are genuinely disorienting at 71,000 square feet with multiple stages, bars, and rooms. Agree on a meeting point before anyone wanders off — the main bar, your original table, or the front entrance. Groups without a plan spend half the night texting each other in a dark, loud building.
Bachelor Parties: Protect the Group Energy
The best bachelor parties are the ones where the groom has a great time without the group causing any friction. Assign someone the informal role of keeping the group together and the vibe positive. Clubs remove entire parties, not just individual offenders — one person acting aggressively ends everyone's night.
Mixed Groups Are Completely Normal
Women at Las Vegas strip clubs are far more common than first-timers expect. Most venues welcome mixed groups and staff handle them professionally. Women typically enter free or at reduced cover. Entertainers interact naturally with the whole group. If anyone in your party becomes uncomfortable at any point, you leave together — no discussion needed.
Solo Visits: The Underrated Option
Visiting solo is perfectly normal and often the best first-time experience. No group dynamics to manage, no one overspending and derailing the budget, and entertainers approach solo guests more consistently since a one-on-one conversation is easier than working a full table. Tuesday through Thursday solo visits offer the most relaxed introduction.

Watch Out
Tourist Traps to Avoid at Vegas Strip Clubs
Vegas strip clubs are well-run businesses, but some revenue tactics are designed to catch first-timers off guard. Know these six before you walk in and you will keep a lot more money in your pocket.
The In-Club ATM
MoneyWhat happens: You run out of cash, spot the ATM in the corner, and withdraw $200. The fee is $10 to $15 per transaction plus your bank's out-of-network fee. Run it twice and you have paid $30 in pure ATM fees before a single dollar reached the stage.
How to avoid it: Withdraw cash at your hotel ATM or a bank ATM before you leave. If you use a bank ATM on the Strip (not in-hotel), fees are typically $3 to $5. Plan your cash budget in advance — $200 minimum for a casual night, $350 to $500 for a group-energy bachelor party night.
The 'House' Drink Minimum
DrinksWhat happens: Some clubs add a two-drink minimum on top of the cover charge, charged as a separate 'house tab' when you sit down. At $15 to $20 per drink, that is $30 to $40 before you even look at the stage.
How to avoid it: Ask at the door whether there is a drink minimum separate from the cover. If you are on the NoCoverVegas guest list, cover is waived but the drink minimum at some venues still applies. Order beer if a minimum is required — it is the cheapest qualifying option and saves you $5 to $10 per drink versus cocktails.
The VIP 'Champagne Room' Upsell
VIPWhat happens: You get offered a 'champagne room' experience with a price quoted per entertainer per 30 minutes. What is not said: the bottle of champagne in the room is mandatory and costs $200 to $500 extra. The total bill is often 2x to 3x the quoted rate.
How to avoid it: Before agreeing to any VIP experience, ask: what is the total cost including all mandatory purchases, the entertainer's time fee, and what is the expected tip? Get a clear dollar number. If the answer is vague or changes when you ask a follow-up, walk away. The best entertainers are transparent about pricing — it is a feature, not a bug.
The 'VIP Fast Pass' at the Door
EntryWhat happens: A man outside the club approaches your group and offers to skip the line and get you in immediately for $20 to $30 per person. This is a cover charge with a markup, not a guest list. The 'fast pass' is just a guy who splits the door revenue with the club.
How to avoid it: Sign up for the NoCoverVegas guest list before you arrive. You get free entry (no cover, no 'fast pass' fee) through the dedicated guest list line. The line is always shorter than the regular walk-up line. Anyone approaching you outside the club and asking for cash upfront is not offering you a deal.
The Taxi or Rideshare Upcharge
TransportWhat happens: Rideshare from a mid-Strip hotel to a club off the Strip runs $18 to $30 each way. For a group of four over a two-venue night, that is $72 to $120 in Uber fees before you factor in surge pricing at 2 AM.
How to avoid it: Use the free limo service available to NoCoverVegas guest list members. You get a complimentary ride from your hotel to the club at no charge. The club provides this because it fills the venue — they want you there. For the ride home, coordinate through the club's host who can arrange a car, or use a rideshare with everyone confirmed and sober enough to navigate the app.
Arriving on a 'Special Event' Night Without Checking
TimingWhat happens: You sign up for guest list on a normal Tuesday, arrive, and discover it is an '$80 all-inclusive special event' night. The guest list is suspended for the event, and you pay full cover plus an event premium — sometimes $80 to $100 per person.
How to avoid it: Text us your date before finalizing plans. We track which clubs have special events, all-inclusive nights, and guest list suspensions day by day. A quick check before you head out confirms whether the normal guest list applies or whether it is a special-night override. Major holidays (New Year's Eve, Valentine's Day, Super Bowl weekend) are almost always special-event nights — plan accordingly.
Group Planning
Group Rates & Packages by Size
The economics of a Vegas strip club change significantly based on group size. Here is the exact playbook for each headcount range — cover savings, limo logistics, bottle service math, and the best venue match.
2–4 People
Cover savings
$60–200 saved via guest list (vs. $30–50 cover per person)
Limo
Individual Uber costs $18–30 each way. Free limo eliminates this entirely.
Bottle service
Not necessary for groups of 4 or fewer — buy drinks at the bar and spend the table minimum savings on stage tips and dances instead.
Best venue
Crazy Horse III or Spearmint Rhino — both offer personalized service for smaller groups and promoter guest list without minimum group sizes.
Strategy: Go mid-week (Thu is ideal). Show up between 10 and 11 PM. Budget $200–300 per person total including drinks, tips, and entertainment. Skip bottle service.
5–8 People
Cover savings
$150–400 saved via guest list
Limo
Standard free limo fits 6–8 comfortably. Confirm group size when booking.
Bottle service
At 6+ people, bottle service becomes economical. One bottle of premium vodka ($400–600) split 6 ways ($67–100 each) is comparable to individual bar spending, but you get a reserved table and dedicated server.
Best venue
Sapphire Las Vegas — largest venue, best capacity for groups of 6–8, dedicated group host available, multiple stages to rotate between.
Strategy: Book bottle service for guaranteed seating. One bottle minimum covers 2 hours for 6–8 people at a normal drinking pace. Designate one person to handle the group tab, collect from everyone before you arrive.
9–15 People (Bachelor Party)
Cover savings
$270–750 saved via guest list
Limo
Sprinter van or stretch SUV limo for 10–14. Book this when you book the club — availability fills up on peak nights.
Bottle service
Two bottles minimum for groups of 10+. Two premium vodka bottles ($800–1,200) covers 10 people for 3 hours of reasonable drinking. Add champagne for the groom's arrival toast.
Best venue
Sapphire Las Vegas for the full bachelor party layout; Crazy Horse III for the themed rooms and outdoor patio energy.
Strategy: Coordinate with the club's group sales host 1–2 weeks in advance. Request a corner VIP booth or stage-adjacent table so the group has its own space. Designate the groom's handler — someone responsible for keeping him with the group and preventing the $3,000 VIP room tab at 3 AM.
16–30+ People
Cover savings
$480–1,500+ saved via guest list
Limo
Party bus required for 20+. 40-passenger party bus available through NoCoverVegas — premium sound, lighting, and open bar en route.
Bottle service
Full VIP buyout or multi-table booking. Venues accommodate large corporate events, conventions, and mega bachelor parties with dedicated hosts, multiple tables, and private room access at negotiated rates.
Best venue
Sapphire Las Vegas only — it is the only venue with sufficient square footage and multi-tier VIP infrastructure for groups above 20.
Strategy: Contact us 2–4 weeks in advance for large group packages. Negotiated minimums, custom packages, and dedicated room access are available for groups of 20+ that book through a promoter rather than walking in. The larger the group, the more leverage you have on pricing.
Step-by-Step
How to Get the Free Limo to Any Vegas Strip Club
Every NoCoverVegas guest list booking includes a complimentary limo from your hotel to the club. Here is how it works from sign-up to arrival.
Sign Up for Guest List
Use the NoCoverVegas guest list form on this page or text us your name, date, club choice, group size, and hotel name. The free limo is included with every guest list booking — it is not a separate request.
Confirm Your Pickup Details
After signing up, you will receive a text confirmation with the limo pickup details: time, pickup location at your hotel, and the driver's contact number. Most Strip hotels have designated pickup/drop-off zones — your driver will direct you to the right spot. Typical pickup time is 30 minutes before you want to arrive at the club.
Be Ready at Your Pickup Spot On Time
The limo runs on a schedule and coordinates multiple hotel pickups on a single route. If you are late, you will miss your window and the free limo departs without your group. Being 5 minutes early is much better than being 5 minutes late. Text the driver number if your group is running behind — sometimes a 2-minute hold is possible, but not guaranteed.
Arrive at the Club via the Limo Entrance
Pulling up in the limo gets you into the express guest list line — a faster, priority queue separate from the walk-up general admission line. The door host recognizes limo arrivals and processes them first. For large groups, this saves 20 to 45 minutes of waiting compared to the standard guest list queue.
Arrange Your Return Before You Leave the Club
The free limo service covers the ride to the club. The ride back is separate — arrange it before you leave. Options: Uber (surge pricing applies at 2 AM — request in advance while inside the club), a taxi arranged through the club host (available at most venues), or a pre-arranged pickup with the original driver (confirm availability when you arrive at the club). Do not leave this to the last minute at 3 AM when you are competing with everyone else leaving at the same time.
