About the Venue

Drai's After Hours is Las Vegas's most legendary after-hours venue, operating Thursday through Sunday from midnight to 7 AM in the basement of The Vanderpump Hotel (formerly The Cromwell) directly on the Strip. The 13,000 square foot space is divided into four mansion-inspired rooms, each with its own distinct atmosphere and DJ programming — two rooms are dedicated to electronic music, one to hip-hop, and one functions as a premium hookah lounge. With 55 bottle service tables and VIP alcoves lining every room, Drai's After Hours is the after-party destination for Las Vegas's nightlife industry workers, touring DJs who play it after their main sets elsewhere on the Strip, and tourists looking to extend their night well past every other club's closing time.

The crowd that shows up between 3 and 6 AM is uniquely Las Vegas: hotel workers, dealers, cocktail servers, touring crew, and dedicated night owls who consider 5 AM the prime time.
