Night Club Experts understand that a preponderance of women in the line can enhance the ambiance within a venue. There are certain types of people who tend to come to the hotel if they are attractive women and also if there are groups of women, they feel safer when they are with other women. This “safety in numbers” forms a more favorable social climate. If the group is primarily male, and you have not reserved a table, you will need to have a plan to ensure that you get in early.
Please contact the Club Host before coming in.
The easiest way to prevent issues at the door is to call in to a club host or promoter before you get there. Be confident but respectful when communicating with the nightclub’s doorman or host. A positive attitude and a positive first impression are great assets and will make them more willing to assist your group.
Use the Guest List to Skip Long Lines
It is always good to have the contact details of the club host in hand prior to coming. Once you arrive at the venue, you have the option to text them, or you can be a member of the guest list before you get there. Our main page has suggested contacts for many Las Vegas night clubs. Use our nightlife forum or find out about them on your own.
When you’re dressed to impress
In the world of Vegas nightlife, look is an important factor. Though everything is not possible to change in a single day, you can make sure that everyone in your group is following the club’s dress code. Doormen are charged with the role of keeping up the image of the venue and must live up to the management’s expectations; well-dressed guests will be accepted more quickly.
Assemble Groups to boost Your odds
If you’re a group of men, team up with another group of men that has a few women. This will make your group more attractive at the gate and make it more likely to gain access. It’s also a wonderful way to find some new friends before the evening starts.
The way others approach groups respectfully is through their actions, which includes the following:
Be friendly and respectful in introducing yourself to another group. You could say, “We’re coming in as a party of a few friends and I think we could get into the club quicker if we came together as a party, do you want to join our party?” This is much more natural and more beneficial to all for a smoother entry.
Look for the right individual at the entrance.
Identify the person who can help you – before you wait in line or ask questions. Check for a person with a clipboard, checking for guests or someone in the club’s official colors. You can ask politely if you are not certain about who will be responsible for the admissions for guests. You can also inquire of any new friends you’ve met if they’ve met a host or promoter.
A Real Story: Tom from MySpace at Body English.
I met Tom from MySpace at Body English night club when it was one of the most popular social networking sites. He inquired whether I could assist him and his friends to get in. The other big group of guys were then introduced by Jason Habel, the chief doorman, who had stamped their wrists. His friends had 100 million friends and he still couldn’t take any girls to the club, Jason joked. The story highlights how important group balance can be at popular Las Vegas nightclubs.
What You Need to Know:
We do not provide specific tips on how to avoid lines – for legal and club policy reasons. Others may forbid it or have varying policies. When in doubt, ask if it is appropriate to tip. The respect and professionalism that is expected in Las Vegas’s hospitality industry are usually best achieved through honest communication. Even if you’re not accepted for tipping, politely asking them about the policy isn’t likely to offend anyone.
