A few years ago a group of motorcycle enthusiasts frequenting downtown Las Vegas wanted to have a drink between rides. They stopped off at the Bar+Bistro at The Arts Factory and marveled at one another’s rides. The event began to grow and turned into an ongoing event on the third Friday of each month. Today, Vintage Bike Night has a broader scope that includes classic motorcycles – everything from Harleys to Vintage Indians – scooters, café racers, dual sports and so much more.

It’s one of the most magisterial and talked about shows when it comes to Las Vegas entertainment.

Having recently celebrated its third anniversary, Absinthe remains a Vegas favorite – a sexy, politically incorrect, insensitive yet impressive favorite at that.

If you’re not easily offended  and enjoy unabashed humor, then head to Absinthe for a night out in which you’ll partake in a laugh-out-loud, raucous good time.

The best way to experience this show is to purchase VIP tickets, which actually allows you to enter through a different ‘special’ door (i.e. a phone booth) where you receive a complimentary mini bottle of champagne to start the night off right.
