Hakkasan Nightclub Concerts

Cool two-levelled nightclub inside MGM Grand. The night that my friends and I went, Lil Jon was playing. We had lots of fun. I wish there was more space on the dancefloor though. When the club is crowded, it's not easy to dance or get through people.

If you are staying in MGM area this is a great choice for a party. Be aware that some of the DJ’s are not that impressive and you have to arrive early to take a place on a dance floor or buy a table and splurge on bottle service. The ambiance is worthy an entrance ticket. The kinetic ceiling is fun to watch. I am only giving three stars because this club has a great potential.

Overall: 4.4/5 We got on the guest list and got in around 11 PM the Friday of Halloween weekend. The line moved pretty fast and the check-in/security process was streamlined. It was our first time in Hakkasan so we were surprised we had to take an elevator up to get to the club. They only opened 2 floors so we didn't get to see the 3rd one. The floor we got off on was the top floor where it was all lounge seating. The bar area was big and provided a nice overview of the club. The space in front of the DJ was huge but it was already filled. We grabbed a drink first since there was no line which was a smart choice because half an hour later, both bars were packed. It was ladies' open bar too from 11:30 PM - 12:30 AM so the girls can get free well drinks/beers. HOWEVER, the drinks - even the paid ones - tasted like juice with barely any alcohol in them. The lemon drop was $20 and the long island tea was $26 too so pre-game before you come in. The lemon drop we got had sugar all over the cup so our hands got sticky. The bartenders were really nice though and didn't seem to hate their jobs. The music got better as it got later into the night but we left a little before 1 AM since it got way too crowded. They even blocked off the middle entry stairs to the main stage dance floor and had security managing path of travel/flow. Overall, had a pretty good experience. Definitely one of the better clubs I've been to.

The bouncers here were really rude and aggressive for no reason. I was dressed in a skirt and yes, I am a man. As I was waiting in line, bouncers were pointing me out and then one started to interrogate me about my sexuality. He asked me if what I was wearing was a kilt like 3 times. Then he asked me if he could ask me questions without being offended. Then he asked if I was gay, and if I felt more comfortable dressing like that than wearing pants. He eventually did let me in but I felt like I had been singled out and asked about my sexuality for no reason. For a resort like MGM that claims it’s an LGBT destination, I expect better from a nightclub there. I encourage any LGBT people looking for a nightclub to go elsewhere

Nice lit atmosphere. Many areas to walk around and be in at this place . Went for my mans birthday and it did not disappoint. Can not wait to go back !
