Nightclub On Las Vegas Strip To Permanently Close
For visitors and locals alike, the nightclub scene on the Las Vegas Strip is a major attraction in and of itself. Night after night, these clubs find themselves packed with individuals seeking a fun night out on the town. And the nightclub scene definitely delivers for those that enjoy music, drinks, dancing, and over-the-top venues!
However, one Las Vegas nightclub has announced that it will be closing it’s doors permanently. The LIGHT Vegas at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino informed it’s employees on October 5th that the club will ultimately be shutting down.
This news shocked me, considering that Las Vegas’ tourism is growing by the day and our city is seeing larger and larger numbers of visitors seeking a good time.
The LIGHT nightclub events calendar shows availability to reserve and book through October 29th, so there’s a slight possibility the space may remain open through the end of the month. That said, despite the availability to pay and reserve online, it seems as though the nightclub might have permanently shut it’s doors as of October 5th.
According to Fox 5 Vegas, a statement released from the company said that Clique Hospitality would be working with the LIGHT nightclub employees to shift them into other positions at various other Clique Hospitality venues around Las Vegas. “Clique Hospitality has informed its team that The LIGHT Vegas at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino has permanently closed. Clique is working with employees to reassign them at the company’s 10 Las Vegas destinations. Clique’s DAYLIGHT Beach Club, also at Mandalay Bay, will remain open. DAYLIGHT will close for the season on Sunday, Oct. 16 and reopen spring 2023.”

A Trip To Space Is A Short Drive Away At Illuminarium (PICTURES)
It is a never-ending quest to find new and exciting things to do to entertain the kiddos. You can only go to the park so many times. But sometimes, if you pay close attention to what your kids are entranced by on YouTube, you’ll get a clue.
In our house, our sons Colin and Mario are absolutely obsessed with space lately. They know the order of the planets, they know a ton of dwarf planets (including Pluto, which to me will always be a real planet), they know the largest known star in the Universe (UY Scuti, whatever the hell that is)… if it has to do with the cosmos, they are all about it.
On the search for something fun to do space-wise, we came across Illuminarium Las Vegas at Area 15. The projection-mapping destination has an attraction named Space: A Journey To The Moon And Beyond that was thankfully just extended through the end of the year. I say thankfully because, if you haven’t been, I am demanding you do.
You walk into the a large room, adorned with seats and couches and every piece of the floor and walls around you showing that you’re smack dab in the middle of a launch site, getting ready to blast off into space. A tour guide welcomes you and prepares you for your journey through space.
In no time – BLAST OFF. The ground rumbles, the rocket blasts off, and you are headed off Earth. The visuals, the sound system, it is all incredibly awe-inspiring. This alone would be enough to impress, until they open the doors.
What awaits on the other side is the real show. From floating through outer space to landing on the moon. Watching astronauts bounce around the dusty rock, drive their buggy around to collect samples and more. Then, it’s off to another adventure. This time to the planets beyond, reaching to the deepest parts of space.
Asteroids appear on the floor and you can stomp on them to break them up. A half scale model of a lunar lander smack dab in the middle of the experience. It is something that, especially if you haven’t experienced “projection mapping technology” before, will make your jaw drop.
We got the kids dressed up as astronauts for the occasion and they had an absolute blast. Yours will too. Even the kid inside you will love it.
Locals can get in for as little as $20 a ticket, with $35 getting you flexible entry into the exhibit (no set time), a souvenir poster, and a $10 credit in the gift shop. See this before it is gone because, trust me, you’ll be glad you had the experience. It’s cheaper than a SpaceX ticket.
