Yes, that's right - another new club is headed to the Strip. Coming from the Hakkasan Group is the new Omnia Nightclub slated to open Spring 2015. For those of you awaiting a translation, "Omnia" is Latin for "all things" or "everything." We can expect great things from designers Rockwell Group as they deck out the 75,000-square-foot space inside Caesars Palace where Pure Nightclub was formerly located. What is interesting is that this club will have a sister property in San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter, another thriving area for nightlife (though Vegas still reigns supreme).

This city is in a content state of flux. We shutter venues and buildings left and right then revel in the excitement of a newcomer, poised to deliver judgement about all faults and strengths since we're all self-proclaimed experts. And maybe we are. If experience brings us wisdom, then perhaps Vegas can be the perfect judge of character, business and uniqueness.

The second annual Life Is Beautiful festival is kicking off this weekend on Friday, Oct. 24. This year’s event is all about inspiring people to recognize the beauty in life – wherever they are in their personal lives – it is about embracing life, finding happiness and seeing the world from a different lens. To achieve this, the creator of Life is Beautiful enlisted local Las Vegas chefs to inspire patron’s palettes, a bounty of musicians to inspire the soul and they’ve grouped together world-renowned artists to invoke the heart and mind with unifying artistic themes.

Vegas Indoor Skydiving

I’m from a small town in Colorado known as Loveland. I grew up idealizing rock stars and get star struck when I see a celebrity, specifically a rock and roll idol. An embarrassing admonishment, and a slight tangent, as I walked passed Dave Navarro in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in my first year in Vegas, I shouted out, ‘There’s Trent Reznor!’

More often than not, Vegas is considered one of the drinking capitals of the world. Whether you’re into frozen yard drinks and beer in football shaped cups or if you like fine wine or off-the-menu cocktails, we have everything in Vegas. But what does it take to be a bartender or, rather, a mixologist in Sin City? We got to step inside the mind of one of the city’s finest bartenders: Max Solano. Solano is the curator and beverage manager at Delmonico Steakhouse as well the mixologist for all of Chef Emeril Lagasse’s restaurants in Vegas.
