It’s another festival weekend in Las Vegas! The annual Life is Beautiful Music & Art Festival returns on Friday, Sept. 25 for three days of entertainment and inspiration. This festival isn’t just a great time to experience live performances from popular artists, it also gives you an opportunity to learn from distinguished leaders, indulge in culinary excellence and enjoy fantastic artwork.

It’s September! Do you know what that means? It’s time for iHeartRadio’s annual music festival at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Every year, iHeartRadio brings together some of the hottest names in music and this year is no exception. The sold out festival is taking place on Sept. 18 and Sept. 19. Headliners include Sam Smith, Demi Lovato, Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Jennifer Lopez, Nick Jonas and more.

Hey, Vegas! Are you ready to show off your PRIDE? That’s right. Pride Week is here and there are a bunch of exciting things happening around town. It’s time to show your support and celebrate in the name of love and diversity. Clear your schedules and head over to Downtown Las Vegas on Sept. 18 for the Annual Pride Night Parade. The pre-show for the parade kicks off at 7 pm at the Main Stage on Bridger Avenue. Immediately following the pre-show, the parade begins at 8 pm on West Charleston Blvd. and heads north along 4th Street to Ogden Avenue.

During this past weekend, The National Football League began its official season. Hardcore fans and enthusiasts across the nation donned their jerseys, shotgunned their beers, and headed to their respective stadiums or neighborhood sports bars to watch their favorite teams do battle. There is no debate – football (not soccer!) is the U.S.A.'s biggest sport. Given that Las Vegas is seriously lacking any sort of professional sports team whatsoever, the best we can do for the time being is partying as hard as possible and rooting for whichever team we happen to have money riding on.

Many did not expect this past Labor Day Weekend in Las Vegas to have such a phenomenal turnout, but  an estimated 315,000 visitors checked in to Sin City hotels over the 3-day holiday. Many last minute vacationers were met with sold out pool parties and nightclubs attempting to squeeze in wherever they could. Not to mention the eclectic artist lineups... It seems that every Hip-Hop artist that has ever had a hit single was either hosting or performing at the various nightclubs and day parties across the strip.

Did you miss the LAVO nightlife scene? We did. That’s why we’re excited about the grand opening of LAVO Casino Club this week. The revamped club is offering a unique Las Vegas experience where guests can enjoy a variety of entertainment options all in one space. Even with so much fun packed into one venue, LAVO manages to maintain an intimate and sexy vibe. When you visit the casino club, you can expect to be transported to a modern day speakeasy featuring blackjack and craps tables along with premium cocktails and bottle service.

Time to get pumped! Insomniac just announced the dates and ticket details for Electric Daisy Carnival, Las Vegas 2016. Clear your schedules for EDC 2016, set to take place on June 17, 18 and 19. Next year’s annual EDC event marks its 20th anniversary under the electric sky. Be sure to prepare yourselves because tickets go on sale in just TWO WEEKS! On Monday, Sept. 21 you can start buying your tickets online at noon PST.

If you didn't get the memo yet, Sin City is where LDW actually happens. If you are lucky enough to make it down here for this epic weekend, we're sure you're more than excited. Whether or not you've adequately prepared is another story. The artist lineup is enough to make anyone's head spin and we're here to let you know where the biggest and baddest parties will be. Thankfully enough most of the action starts today and winds down by Sunday night as Monday is usually reserved for all day recovery and family time. Here are our top picks for this Labor Day Weekend:

We don't know about everyone else, but we consider the weekend before Labor Day Weekend to be a practice round. We suggest utilizing this weekend to fortify your partying endurance for LDW mayhem. As the Summer comes to a final close, venues and booking agents are keeping up the pace filling the stage and booths with heady talent. We'll be pool hopping and doing day and night two-a-days so we suggest you do the same! Here are our top picks:

The Autumnal Equinox begins on September 22nd. We doubt the Sun's rays will waver much in our fair city for a little while after... being that we don't really have seasons in Vegas. Never the less, the summer-style partying is beginning to come to a close. Many are starting university classes or buckling down making new career moves. Here is a Summer closeout playlist to reminisce about all the good times and vibes that were had. Cheers to next summer!
