Las
Vegas Weekly has partnered with Nightclub Hall of Fame to celebrate the
nightlife and bar industry’s leading men and women. The two will host a series
of unforgettable induction ceremonies, paying tribute to the true trailblazers
that conceptualize and execute the city’s top party scenes.
Founded
by industry veterans and bar experts Ryan Dahlstrom and Preston Rideout, the
Nightclub Hall of Fame honors lifetime achievements and is the one of
industry’s most sought-after accolades. The program will begin by honoring
inductees Victor Drai (Tuesday, July 8), founder and owner of his namesake
Drai’s Beach Club • Nightclub at The Cromwell Las Vegas, and Jesse Waits
(Monday, July 21), managing partner at XS nightclub at Encore and Tryst
nightclub at Wynn Las Vegas. Additional ceremonies will be announced soon.
“As
Las Vegas’ go-to source for all things daylife, nightlife, entertainment and
dining, Las Vegas Weekly is a natural fit to assist with our event
programming,” said Dahlstrom. “These award inductees are the definitive
influencers and innovators in the burgeoning nightclub and bar industry, so
they deserve a proper recognition put on by the best.”
Upcoming
Events:
· Tuesday, July 8 – Drai, a nightlife
and entertainment entrepreneur as well as successful restaurateur, has been
committed to Las Vegas’ scene for years with his distinctive style, innovation
and unique vision. The nightclub mogul recently opened his 65,000 square foot
nightlife/daylife rooftop multi-sensory experience, Drai’s Beach Club •
Nightclub; launched Liaison, the first gay nightclub inside a casino on the
Strip; and re-launched his famed After Hours venue. His induction ceremony will

· Monday, July 21 – Nightlife impresario
Waits is known for using his savvy and impeccable vision to successfully manage
Las Vegas’ multi-award-winning, powerhouse venues XS and Tryst. Under his
leadership, XS has been named the top-grossing nightclub more often than any
other venue in the country, and he has been nationally recognized as a pioneer
in developing the EDM movement within the city. Referred to as “Las Vegas’
dance music mecca” by MTV News and dubbed “the Yankees of nightlife” by Rolling
Stone, XS will play host to Waits’ celebratory induction. Tickets and table
