Firestarters
Vegas’s Best July Fourth Parties

We’re going to make a few predictions for Sunday: There will be fireworks. There will be patriotic fervor. And, if you play your cards right, there will even be a few bikini-clad trapeze dancers. Herewith, our guide to playing your cards right...

Tao Beach

The Venetian’s cabana-lined pool and club chose to dishonor our nation’s birthday by having their Fourth of July barbecue today. (It’s going until 3pm, if you’re hungry.) But if you stop by Sunday, you can celebrate your hard-won freedoms with patriotic anthems from DJ Paul van Dyk and teeming plates of sushi. American sushi.
Essentials: German Beats, French Champagne, American Spirit
411:
10am-sunset, at the Venetian, 3377 Las Vegas Blvd, 702-388-8588

Wet Republic

Sometimes, Independence Day or no, you just want to be in a pool with a Playboy Bunny. Holly Madison and Wet Republic are happy to oblige—and at the bright-and-early hour of 11am. We’re pretty sure they don’t have this in Canada.
Essentials: Poolside Blackjack, Girls Next Door, Morning in America
411:
11am-6pm, at the MGM Grand, 3799 Las Vegas Blvd, 702-891-3563

VooDoo Lounge

The Rio’s rooftop spot is tempting patriots with Playboy model Jesse Preston and a burlesque troupe called Fire-N-Ice—to honor our Founding Fathers’ deep, abiding love of sexy circus performers, heat and ice cubes.
Essentials: Belly Dancers, Playboy Models, Lady Liberty
411:
9pm, at the Rio, 3700 W Flamingo Rd, 702-777-7800

Mix Lounge

You should be able to take in two major pyrotechnic displays—Caesars and Mandalay Bay, both at 9pm—from the outdoor terrace at the Mandalay’s 64th-floor cocktail lounge. Or stay inside and take in the massive coral-shaped sculpture hanging over the bar—the decorative equivalent of fireworks.
Essentials: Fiery Spectacle, Soaring Heights, Freedom
411:
Show at 9pm, at Mandalay Bay, 3950 Las Vegas Blvd, 64th Floor, 702-632-9500

Nightswimming at XS

You can finish the night off at XS, where the whole nightclub will be emptied out into the pool/den for Sunday Nightswimming. Any fireworks will be strictly metaphorical, but the cocktails will be very real.
Essentials: Pool Clubbing, Splash Zone, Naval Warfare
411:
10:30pm-4am, at Encore, 3131 Las Vegas Blvd, 702-770-0097
