Venue Overview

What to Expect at Hakkasan

Hakkasan at MGM Grand is an immersive 80,000 square foot, five-level entertainment complex that combines Las Vegas's most awarded Cantonese restaurant with a world-class nightclub experience. Opened in 2013, the venue's layout across five floors creates completely distinct atmospheres: Levels 1 and 2 house the award-winning Cantonese restaurant and private dining rooms; Level 3 features the Ling Ling Lounge and Ling Ling Room — a 10,000+ square foot hip-hop lounge with its own dance floor and DJ; and the upper levels contain the sweeping main nightclub room with mezzanine, Pavilion, and back areas where Steve Aoki and Loud Luxury hold 2026 residencies alongside Above & Beyond, Acraze, Charlotte de Witte, Laidback Luke, Black Coffee, and Vintage Culture. The main room's production rivals a music festival — multi-story LED installations surround a massive stage and dance floor that can accommodate thousands. With 3,800-person capacity and a Wednesday through Saturday schedule, Hakkasan is one of the highest-volume clubs in Las Vegas and one of the most recognized nightclub brands in the world. The restaurant reservations often sell out on weekend nights and fill with pre-party diners before the club opens. The venue's bottle service sections span multiple price tiers: lower floor tables facing the main stage command $1,500–$3,000 minimum spend for direct sightlines to the DJ booth, while Pavilion and back-area tables start at $750–$1,500 for groups who want the full production experience without front-of-stage pricing. Each floor has its own bar, so guests can order at any level without crossing the venue. The restaurant-to-club arc is a signature Hakkasan experience: dinner in the downstairs Cantonese dining room, then ascending floor by floor as the night deepens — experiencing the same building transform from white-tablecloth silence to 3,000-person music festival is something no other venue in Las Vegas can replicate. In 2026, Hakkasan has expanded its programming to embrace hip-hop and R&B alongside its EDM roots, emerging as the Strip's most genre-flexible mega-club. R&Bae Wednesdays — anchored by resident DJ Franzen, who previously held a lengthy residency at Drai's before Drai's relocated to its original basement location in late 2025 — deliver a weekly celebration of classic R&B spanning Jodeci, Usher, and Mariah Carey alongside contemporary artists, making Wednesday the definitive midweek R&B night on the Strip. Thursday nights rotate TELYKAST and other performers through the Ling Ling Lounge, while Friday and Saturday headliner bookings mix EDM talent with hip-hop acts including Tyga, Fabolous, and BigXThaPlug — a dual-identity programming calendar that no other Las Vegas mega-club replicates at this scale.
