Marquee Nightclub

Marquee Nightclub, from the owners of the TAO Group, is a 60,000 square feet venue is one of the oldest clubs in Sin City, it has withstood the test of time and remains at the top of most lists as one of the best nightclubs in Vegas. Marquee was the first to introduce a "club within a club" concept – different rooms with different vibes inside the same venue. At its opening, Marquee Nightclub had three differently-themed floors all operating at the same time, each with its own unique experience: The Boombox Room, a small, box-shaped room that played entirely Top 40/Hip Hop music; the Library, a smaller, somewhat muted room with beautiful furniture, a pool table, and a working fireplace with a lounge/speakeasy vibe; and the Main Room, which, to this day, continues to be a large, high-energy space that spills out onto a beautiful pool deck overlooking the Las Vegas Strip.

While Marquee is one of the older clubs in Vegas, it has withstood the test of time and remains at the top of most lists as one of the best clubs in the entire city. Its artist roster has changed quite a bit from its early days. However, Marquee still boasts longtime residents and EDM music DJ standouts like Benny Benassi, newer EDM artists like Nicky Romero, and Alan Walker and shifting towards Hip Hop events primarily headed by the likes of DJ Mustard.

Where is Marquee Las Vegas located?

Marquee is inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, which sits squarely in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip, making it an easy commute for any guest staying on The Strip. Its street address is 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109

The club's entrance is located on the second floor of the hotel. For guests entering the building from the walkways that connect the Cosmopolitan to its neighboring hotels, Marquee would be the first thing they see as they round the first corner upon entering the structure.

Pro Tip #1: The Cosmo can be a real pain to get in and out of, so if you are heading to the club via some sort of transportation, plan on giving yourself and extra 30 minutes on top of the normal time it should take, just due the traffic outside the hotel.

What Nights is Marquee Nightclub Open?

Friday Doors open at 10:00 pm.

Saturday Doors open at 10:00 pm.

Sunday Doors open at 10:00 pm.

Marquee has 2 floors?

Book a VIP Table

The main room includes a drop-down platform for the gogo dancers to strut their stuff.

Music Programing and Events

Management always comes up with some creative events. Artist bookings tend to lean a little more on house/trance/electronic dance music side. However they do toss in some hip hop nights with DJ Mustard and some Top 40 nights with DJ Pauly D, Lil Jon, and DJ Five. Music is still a huge part of Marquee's events, with popular artists such as Fisher, Deorro, Alan Walker, Cedric Gervais, and John Summit. Their Industry Sunday party has taken off recently call the night Circus and that moves to a nightswim party at the dayclub in the summers.

How much is it to get into Marquee Nightclub?

General admission tickets vary from event to event, with bigger headliners commanding higher price points (anywhere from $20-$30 for female tickets and $30-$75 for male tickets). Keep in mind that prices online are typically not the same as the price at the door; club management will always have the final say on what they want to charge you if you don't buy a ticket before doors open. Prices typically do not fluctuate that much for Marquee tickets unless it's a holiday weekend, or they have a huge headliner.

EVENT PRICING:

Males $40 - $75+

Females $20 - $50+

NON-EVENT PRICING:

Males $30+

Females $20+

If you don't want to deal with the hassle of sorting out entry into the venue on your own, we offer a seamless process and fantastic packages, including hosted VIP entry into the club by one of our VIP Hosts. Also if you have a group and tickets are pricey check out our cheap bottle service deals in Sin City!

Marquee Nightclub Guestlist vs. Presale Tickets: What's better?

Getting on the Guestlist is a FREE SERVICE to sign up for, but here's the catch: You have to get there early in exchange for free or discounted entry (depending on the guestlist rules for that event). In the case of a big headliner where online prices are sky-high, and guests are getting in for free on the Marquee guest list, you can be sure that the lines to get in on the list will be out the door. In this case, it's always advisable to arrive early before doors open to secure your spot at the head of the line.

Here's what you can expect on the guest list:

Sunday:

Males – Free Entry before 1 am check-in

Females – Free Entry before 1 am check-in

Friday/Saturday:

Males – Free or Discounted Admission (depends on headliner – early arrival recommended)

Females – Free Entry (early arrival recommended)

*Early arrival is required for Saturday events, especially with big headliners. Guestlist details are subject to capacity – if the club hits near capacity with the lines outside still full of people, the club may decide to start charging people early.

Get on The Marquee Guestlist

Suppose you're planning on attending a big event and can't get there early. In that case, you might want to look into purchasing General Admission tickets in advance to avoid paying the inflated price at the door and to guarantee your entry. Pre-purchased tickets automatically guarantee access to the venue; the Guestlist does not!

Get Marquee Tickets

Pro Tip: Club guestlists are geared more toward female patrons. All-female groups typically have a little more leeway in terms of arrival time on big nights, while groups with males in their party might not have the same time luxury. Contact your Exploring Las Vegas host to find out what the best course of action is for your group.

Exploring Las Vegas Insider Tip: Did you know that some nightclubs offer an open bar for ladies? It's true! Check out our complete guide to Las Vegas Open Bar Deals.

What's a VIP Bar Card?

VIP Bar Cards are pre-loaded gift cards with $100 for you to use at the bar. They are only available online for $100-$125 (depending on the event). Suppose you were thinking of purchasing tickets online and are relatively confident you will spend $100 (or more) at the bar. In that case, you might want to consider purchasing a Bar Card instead. It gives you a free or heavily discounted ticket in exchange for buying $100 worth of beverages in advance. It also grants the Cardholder front-of-line privileges (before midnight) for regular admission.

Pro Tip: Already bought a Bar Card and want to reserve bottle service? You can use this card toward your beverage minimum as it operates like currency within the Club.

What Does Marquee Bottle Service Cost?

MNC has several areas within the club that offer different pricing tiers for bottle service:

Main Room Lower Dance Floor - $$$$

Main Room Upper Dance Floor - $$$

Main Room 3rd Row/Backwall - $$

Cloud Tables - $

Salon Tables - $

Each area has several tables that have varying minimum spends. On a non-peak night, a table in the cloud area might start at $750 minimum spend but could just as quickly go for $1500 on a busier night.

Pro Tip: Not all locations are created equal. Be sure to view the guide below to see which table is right for you and your party, or contact one of our VIP Hosts for additional recommendations.

Table Service Locations

One of the best things about booking at Marquee is that their pricing minimums don't fluctuate as much as their competitors do, and at typically lower prices, too – meaning you get more bang for your buck, and you're more than likely getting the exact location you want without any surprises. Entry-level locations typically start at $750 minimums no matter the night and depending on how big the performers are, you can get a pretty good location for $1,500+, which is pretty low for a popular Vegas club.

Pro Tip: While there is a perfect location for every group, below are some short insights into the different table areas and what to expect inside the venue.

Dance Floor/Owner's Tables (10 ppl)

Located directly on the dance floor, nothing is closer to the action than these tables, allowing you easy access to mingling with the crowd or viewing the party from a relative distance.

Upper Dance Floor (10 ppl)

Short of booking the minimum to get a dance floor-level table, these tables are great for their price point. They provide a solid view of the performer and are in high foot-traffic positions.

Backwall/3rd Row (8 ppl)

For main room entry level table there are small and medium sized tables in across the walkways behind the upper dance floors. There are good value tables, main room experience for less than the dance floor counterparts.

Main Room Salon (8 ppl)

Located in the far room by the back bar of the main room, these tables don't offer a whole lot in terms of a view; you face the bar area and the restroom walkways.

Main Room Cloud (6 ppl)

Entry level for the main club, you don’t get much of a view, but there is usually an extension of the dance floor between your table and the bar which means you are in the action on busy nights

Outside Options

There once was a time when the outside area was slammed and all the tables would be sat, those days have come and gone, but on occasion management has enough reservations to seat the outdoor area.

Daybeds (10 ppl)

Pool deck couches or daybeds in the center of the action outside. A nice table to have a conversation with out blaring music in your ears.

Grand Cabanas (15 ppl)

A great option for a bigger group or a self-contained party, they are a fraction of the cost of the daytime prices, but then again, the main party is inside, and you can’t go in the pool. Sundays in the summer these are the best sections.

Cabanas (12 ppl)

The cabanas are far from the action and only get sat on very busy nights, might be ok for a larger group on a budget

What is Bottle Service?

Bottle Service is the ultimate clubbing experience. It's where you and your party sit at a reserved table and enjoy VIP service at some of Vegas' hottest nightclubs. Simply put, it's an arrangement that eliminates you having to stand in long lines in front of a crowded bar waiting to order drinks; instead, the club provides a private table or booth and personalized service. Once you have purchased bottles of your favorite alcohol, they are served tableside by your personal cocktail server with all the appropriate mixers.

What is a "minimum"? Do I have to pay for a table separately from bottles?

Clubs often operate on a minimum spend requirement (or "min," for short) system for their table reservations. The customer must either reach or exceed the amount set for their minimum spend. While the table is not charged separately, the better the location, the higher the minimum spend requirement. To reach this minimum requirement, the customer can order anything from the beverage menu (bottled alcohol, cases of beer, bottled water, Red Bulls, etc., all count toward your minimum requirement).

Group size could also be a factor in raising your minimum spend. The larger your group, the more accommodations the venue has to make to provide the same VIP experience to its customers. For example, a party of 15-20 people will require a larger space than the typical customer and require more staff service; thus, their minimum would be much higher than a customer coming in with five people.

Are the Mixers Free with Bottles? Yes, mixers come with bottle service. Red Bulls and bottled water are extra, but the standard mixers such as cranberry, pineapple, orange juice, soda water, coke, and tonic are all part of the table deal.

Bottle service is It Worth it?

Absolutely and without a doubt! It is the ultimate clubbing experience. While venturing onto the dance floor and exploring the venue are memorable experiences on their own, nothing is quite like being able to return to your own area, away from the crowd, and enjoy the artists' stunning performances. If your budget allows for it, I highly suggest booking Bottle Service. If you are a group of guys trying to pull girls or vice versa, tables are the 🔑 to help that process.

How many bottles do you get with bottle service?

Truthfully, as many as you can fit into your minimum. Bottle prices start at $795 and vary in price depending on whether you want a specific type of alcohol or a larger bottle. For example, suppose you have a $3,000 minimum and don't want to go over that minimum. In that case, you could theoretically get about three bottles worth (assuming you order the $795 ones) and fill the remaining minimum with small orders of beer/bottled water/Red Bull/etc. Let your host know ahead of time, and we will coordinate with your server depending on your preference!

What is the tip for bottle service?

What you actually want to know is, "How much does bottle service really cost after fees?" Assuming you have a $3000 minimum booked (and don't go over that total), here's how the final bill would break down:

$3000 (Min Spend)

$251.25 (Nevada sales tax is 8.375%)

$271.5 (9.05% venue tax)

$600 (20% tip to the server)

$0 (Podium Handshake for Specific Table)

Total: $4122.75

Bottle Service Packages

We offer some fantastic packages for customers who are looking to book at Marquee. With bottle packages we offer 2-3 bottles at a substantial discount of the normal menu-retail prices. Conversely, if you are looking for more than just bottle service for the night, we offer dinner specials, limo transportation, gentlemen's clubs, and male revues – everything to help make your Vegas night special.

How do I make a reservation, and can I choose my section?

We make reservations simple. Please fill out a form, and one of our VIP Hosts will be in touch shortly to go over your options. The Club's management determines where to seat each confirmed table reservation. We call this " plotting the room. " Once again, the higher your minimum, the better the location. We can request and promise specific table locations based on customer requests. Here's a couple of things that can help us deliver on our promises:

• Arrive on time! We can secure your preferred table, but we cannot ask the venue to hold it the entire night, waiting for you to show up.
• Agree to the recommended minimum for your preferred location. If you want a dance floor table, we can make that happen, provided you agree to the required minimum spend it takes to book it.
• Agree to a podium handshake for express entry and a specific table

How do I get my guests in if they arrive late?

The process is pretty simple. Ideally, it's best if the entire group arrives on time and together, but we understand that stuff happens. Tell your guest(s) to walk up to the ropes, mention the table number and the reservation name, and they will get right in with two exceptions: if there is a capacity issue. The club cannot physically allow anyone else in via the Fire Marshal's rules and regulations or if you are way over your limit on the number of people at your table.

Also, if uninvited guests show up at your table, the easiest way to handle the situation is to get club security to have them removed. I strongly suggest that you DO NOT, under any circumstances, try to remove them yourself because if an altercation occurs, potentially everyone at the table will get kicked out. With over 20+ years of experience in this business, please trust me; this is the best and the only way to handle things.

How do I order a bottle presentation?

You must have a significant reservation booked (usually around $2000 or more) and purchase a bottle of champagne to qualify for the presentation. Let your VIP Host know, and one of us will be happy to communicate this request to your server. On some occasions for a birthday or special event, a bottle service waitress might bring a display out for much less, just ask your server.

What is a Promoter Girl Guy Host?

Let's say you are a group of guys who want to buy bottle service. A girl guy's job is to approach your table and ask if you would like him to round up some girls to help fill out your table…for a tip (we call that "handshakes" in the industry). He then does the legwork of recruiting girls around the venue to introduce them to your table. The girls are happy they get to join a table, your group is happy that there are girls at your table, and the girl guy walks away happy with a handshake. Everybody wins!

But before you employ any venue's girl guy, be sure to ask your Exploring Las Vegas VIP Host (like me) first. We will have plenty of Vegas girls in town on any given weekend and will most likely know a few at this particular venue that we can invite to your table. If your group and the girls don't mesh for whatever reason, we can always ask the girl guy to try their hand at it.

We also offer atmosphere models for a group of guys who might be a little “rusty” or just want some pretty Vegas party girls to hang out with at the table and keep them entertained. A good rule of thumb is a $100 an hour per girl for a 4-hour minimum.

The Cost of Drinks

Drinks at the bar are pretty much in line with Vegas industry standards: $8+ for beers, $12+ for cocktails, and bottled waters $10. As far as bottle service goes, the lowest bottle prices start at $695 and go up from there, before tax and gratuity.

Las Vegas Bachelor Packages

There's nothing quite like showing out at Vegas' ultra-popular clubs with your boys for a final weekend of freedom. Bottle service is the way to go for groups of bachelor parties planning a trip to the Vegas party scene; you're going to want a space to invite girls back to hang out! Bundle your weekend plans with dinner and open bar deals, limo services, or a visit to Vegas' famous Vegas strip clubs.

OTHER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the Marquee Dress Code?

Dressing to impress will often increase your chances of getting inside; it's an unwritten rule that management likes good-looking, well-dressed partygoers in their club. Yes they do have a strict dress code For women, pretty much anything goes but keep in mind Marquee is a classy club. You will need to dress the part, so you don't look out of place. Gentlemen – shorts, sandals, athletic gear, hats, gym shoes, baggy gear are not allowed. A nice pair of dress shoes, dress jeans or pants, and a collared/designer shirt will fit the bill.

Vegas Dress Code Guide

Marquee Dayclub and Other Tao Group Run Venues

The Marquee experience isn't complete until you come back the next day for their popular pool party, Marquee Dayclub. Vibrant and exciting, Marquee Dayclub remains one of the most asked-for pool parties in the City.

Complete the Tao Group experience with Wet Republic Ultra Pool. The newly-renovated pool party has been a staple to Las Vegas partygoers' schedules for years as one of the City's best dayclubs. The Tao Group has taken over half the Sin City clubs and now has Tao Nightclub, Jewel Nightclub, Omnia Nightclub, and Hakkasan Nightclub For pools, management runs Tao Beach, and Liquid Pool Lounge.

Tao Group Security

Before entry, all guests are required to turn out their pockets (for ladies, they will look in your purse), submit to a metal detector test, and make sure everyone entering is not bringing in anything dangerous. It's equivalent to going through the TSA line at the airport. This applies to all guests, whether you are going in with a table or General Admission.

Pro Tip: If you purchased a table and some unwanted people wander in by accident, it is always best to have the security staff ask them to leave instead of doing it yourself to avoid potential altercations. In the event of a confrontation between guests, both parties may likely be asked to leave. Security has the final say on such matters.

Big Tip: You must be 21 to enter and have a valid form of ID; pictures on your phone are not accepted, and neither are papers. International guests, bring your passport; your foreign IDs will not work here. The rules in Vegas are straightforward; NO ID means NO ENTRY. And yes, we know that Marijuana is legal in Nevada, but the casinos operate under Federal licenses, which still makes weed and weed pens in casinos and clubs off-limits. An even Bigger Tip: Don't even take a chance; it's not worth it!

Las Vegas Security Guide

What can't I bring into the venue?

Here are some things that you will be either asked to throw away or go back to your room to deposit before coming back:

• Vapes – while weed dispensaries are extremely popular and vaping is in vogue, most venues will not allow vapes inside their premises and will ask you to leave it in your room or at the very least throw away the cartridge inside, even if it isn't a CBD cartridge.
• Camera equipment – the only recording equipment you are allowed to bring is the one on your phone. Digital cameras, selfie sticks, et al. are not allowed into the venue.
• Outside Food/Beverages
• Prescription medication (or anything resembling pills) – if you need a specific type of prescription medication while you are inside the venue, you will have to bring the prescription and explain what the medicine is for; otherwise, expect to get pulled to the side.
• Packs of gum – this only applies to day clubs, which tend to be a lot stricter about checking everything that goes into the venue, but guests have been known to try and sneak drugs inside packs of gum to get them into the venue, so expect to have your gum taken away at the door.
• Oversized bags – anything larger than a lady’s clutch will be denied into the venue. This applies to most backpacks, gym bags, totes, etc. While most hotels can hold onto your luggage at the bell desk

Beauty & Essex Restaurant

Beauty and Essex Restaurant is run by the Tao Group and located in close proximity to the club. An upscale dining establishment featuring modern cuisine (with a twist), We highly suggest dining at the this fantastic place for dinner before hitting the club upstairs.

The best part about dining here before visiting the venue is that you get priority check-in with your reservation we can bundle and great night out with one of our package deals.

Let's look ahead. What's happening on New Year's Eve 2024?

You can count on one of the big hitters from the Tao Group to grace the decks at Marquee for NYE. Maybe Fisher, Kaskade, or DJ Mustard? We are not 100% sure who it will be, but you can count on some over-inflated prices and a sell-out that is 💯percent.

Exploring Las Vegas Final Word

We know the club is old and a bit outdated, but the party is still a major player in the Vegas club scene. When they have prominent talent, the place gets slammed; on other nights with mid or low-tier artists, they can struggle a bit and usually don't open all the rooms or the outside. The main room is a great setup, with amazing sound and lighting and if you can swing an upper dance floor or lower dance floor on a mid-level talent night, you will be sitting pretty fancy for half the cost of, say Zouk Nightclub or XS nightclub. I am here to answer your questions and help you with your Sin City club selection. I know MNC well since I have been booking the place for 14 years. I look forward to hearing from you.
