Things to do in August in Las Vegas
See a big show at Allegiant Stadium

Allegiant Stadium is known as the home of the Las Vegas Raiders, but the 65,000-seat venue is welcoming a few big shows before the NFL season gets underway. The Red Hot Chili Peppers take the stage on August 6 with The Strokes as special guests. Mexican Grupera legends Los Bukis bring their reunion tour to Allegiant Stadium on August 26. If you prefer to dance all night long, The Weeknd performs on August 20 with Doja Cat opening.
Rock out to The Killers' Las Vegas homecoming
If you're not at Allegiant Stadium, the biggest concert of the month is The Killers at T-Mobile Arena. The multi-platinum band is from Las Vegas, so expect a homecoming atmosphere on August 26. The T-Mobile Arena also welcomes Daddy Yankee (Aug. 6 & 20) and the double-bill of Chris Brown & Lil Baby (August 27) this month.
Other big August concerts include residencies by John Legend (Aug. 5-20) and Shania Twain (Aug. 26-31) at Planet Hollywood, Silk Sonic (Aug. 3-19) and Usher (Aug. 26-31) at Park MGM, Katy Perry (Aug. 3-13) and Luke Bryan (August 31) at Resorts World and Lionel Richie (Aug. 5-20) at Wynn. Heavy metal fans will be excited to see Rob Zombie and Mudvayne at the Michelob Ultra Arena (August 13) and the Psycho Las Vegas festival, which takes over Resorts World (Aug. 19-21).
See a Comedian in Las Vegas
It's an excellent month for laughs. Jim Gaffigan brings "The Fun Tour" to the Wynn Aug. 26-27, while Katheleen Madigan (August 5), Chico Bean (August 6), Jim Jefferies (Aug. 12-13) and Ron White (Aug. 19-20) join the Aces of Comedy Series at the Mirage.
Vegas is full of great comedy clubs and Lavish Vegas is your best source for tickets.
Go for a swim in Las Vegas
As summer continues to heat up, you'll want to check out the best day clubs and pool parties in Las Vegas. Some of our favorites like Wet Republic, Liquid, Encore Beach Club, Ayu, Elia, and Marquee return for another year of DJs, cabanas and bottle service. The biggest news: Tao Beach is back open after a two-year hiatus with an all-new renovation. Wear plenty of sunscreen. The Vegas heat is brutal in August.
