Advice for mixed group visiting in June??

[leannekinsella]

Hi,

I will be returning to Vegas this summer for my fifth visit staying at the MGM Grand (our usual choice). There will be a even mix of girls/boys all mid 20s. We have some newbies to vegas in the group and I want to ensure we get the most out of our trip!

I've checked out the schedule (so far) for the nights were staying, 24th June - 3rd July, and while Hakkasan has released a couple of events - eg Calvin Harris, Tommy Trash, etc. We are waiting for the full line up before making a decision on clubs. Although my preference would be the likes of xs, marquee, hakkasan, possibly light.

We tried booking bottle service for Calvin Harris at Hakkasan and needless to say, the main room is a little out of budget. We're thinking of booking pre sale for this event as we really want to see him. But we would also like to book bottle service a couple of nights. Ideally with a budget of approx 1000 - 1500. Does anyone have any recommendations on the best way to go about this? Do we focus on the (most cost effective) weekdays to experience bottle service with the group? Do we go ahead and book some bottles at xs ahead of the DJ announcements for June?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You say you have an even group but not how many people in total. Also is your budget $1k-$1.5k INCLUDING or EXCLUDING taxes/gratuity/tips ?

Awesome, I'll be there for some of that time frame you guys are going. Should meet up at a day club or Fat Tues to get some drinkage started

Apologies, the group size is four! That's the budget after tax, gratuity, etc. Any ideas?

Well you will be looking for a $1k min table:

i.e. $1,000 min + $80 sales tax + $200 autograt = $1280 + tips (there's another 10% LET ($100) at some venues e.g. Marquee, Hakkasan, Light)

For that money, you could get an outside table at XS, Marquee. There is no chance you will get a table at Calvin Harris @ Hakkasan for that money.

Your best bet is to check the GET CONNECTED forum to see if others are there the same dates as you - then you might be able to split a table.

I'll be there from the 26th-30th. Was looking at Calvin Harris on sat at hakkasan. Haven't run it by my group yet, im sure they will be down. But i doubt any of them would be up for bs unless we got someone to split it with or a good hook up. I wanna go big, but i cant go big for all of us lol.
