Caesars Palace also celebrates its own 50th birthday with a 13.5 minute fireworks display of its own

Vegas. Land of Life (err, party), Liberty (to party), and the pursuit of happiness (usually ending in shameful behavior)... Vegas really should be nicknamed "Texas" because it is going BIG with July 4th fireworks this weekend. Here is a summary of where to catch these incendiary devices:

'Murrica. Land of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of HappYness, (We did that on purpose in case Will Smith is reading - "What up, Hitch?")

Your attention, please! Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?

...and by "Slim Shady," we really mean Nelly, Fabolous, or even Fat Joe since all of these hip hoppers are exhibiting A-list verbal combat on the mic this weekend in the city of ultimate sin (it's okay; we won't tell your mom). Here is the #vegas #hiphop lineup for the weekend of June 23-26:

EDC in Vegas needs some preparation. It's blazing hot (109 degrees at its peak) and dehydration can be a major factor. Save our checklist below for maximum safety and fun. Bring:

Chapstick - Dehydration can crack your lips.

Camelbak - Store water like a true nomad; when EDC ends at 6am you'll be sweating. Camelbaks must be empty upon entry.

Sunglasses - Protect your eyes from sunburn and shield them from the world.

Bags booked, Uber arrived, and your flight landed smoothly in the Las Vegas Valley. Perhaps you are looking forward to a relaxing Vegas vacation, attending a productive conference, or listening to anything but fist-pumping oontz oontz?

Look up and “ravers” are running around everywhere on the famous Las Vegas strip wearing weird multi-colored, multi-layered, homemade outfits that appear as if someone’s underwear met a glue stick met a jumbo bag of Skittles...maybe you’re digging this!

Maybe you’re not.

We’re just a couple of days away from the epic three night festival that is EDC, and Sin City is buzzing with excitement. You have your stay covered, your trip scheduled along with all the outfits you’ll be wearing, but what about finding your favorite DJ? Don’t worry we’ve got you covered with the time sets and stages for Vegas’ 2016 lineup. Check out below where you can find your favorite DJ and what time you should be there so you can fully immerse yourself in the electric experience.

New to joining in on the festivities of the Electric Daisy Carnival; one of Las Vegas' most famous annual events? Here are a few tips and tricks to help you survive and have the best time possible.

It's the weekend before the world-famous Electric Daisy Carnival touches down amid the sweltering heat wave that is also known as the Las Vegas Motor Speedway! Sin City is the Entertainment Capital of the World and Pre-EDC week is no slouch. Check out the incredible entertainment mix of EDM and Hip-Hop coming to you *live* from the very same artists you've probably seen on YouTube/TV and heard on Spotify/Pandora/iTunes.

The annual electronic dance music party that brings thousands of fans and a plethora of talented artists to town each year is only a few weeks away and it’s time to get serious about who to see and where the hottest after parties are going to be located.

Go big or go home and that’s exactly what Las Vegas is offering this weekend. As the temperatures rise here in Sin City so does the hot list of performers and events. You can also check out the sexy DJ duo Nervo at Omnia on Saturday Night and everyone’s favorite, DJ Mustard at Daylight Beach Club. Whatever you decide to do, just be sure to hit up at least one pool party where it’ll be hot, but the bikini-clad folks dancing and partying all around will make things even hotter.
