MLK Weekend in Vegas
What to Expect During MLK Weekend
Martin Luther King Jr. Weekend is one of the first big party weekends of the year in Las Vegas. The three-day holiday Monday gives visitors an extra night to enjoy the Strip, and nightclubs respond with enhanced lineups and special events. MLK Weekend has become especially popular for hip-hop and R&B events, with major artists performing at venues across the city. The timing in mid-January also means lower hotel rates compared to peak summer weekends, making it an excellent value for a long-weekend Vegas trip. Clubs are hungry to start the year strong, so expect aggressive guest list availability and competitive VIP pricing.
