| - Compared to the hype and bluster of Hakkasan's impending arrival, I had only heard whispers about this Light. At first I'm like...there's NO way that this place can be better than Hakkasan. This is despite what my friends that live in Las Vegas actually told me. But I guess one has to see the truth before they believe it. Seriously, I cannot wait for the next time I come back here.
Now I can't really tell if this is regular or not, but I literally showed up with my crew at 1:15 AM on a Sunday night (it's not easy getting up when you've been to four clubs in the last two days)...and there was no line. Like, what? Really? I had tickets so I was always going to get in, but I've literally never walked into a Vegas club without even trying. Not that I'm complaining obviously, but I think I just screwed up my expectations for the line now!
Anywho, I love how Light's layout is just one big room. No crazy hallways, no little corridors. It's easy to move around, the bar is fairly accessible, bathrooms are right there. If you want to get down to the dance floor, it's fairly large. If you have a table, you have a great view too.
Once you walk up the stairs that surround you with LED, you see the truth... and it's AMAZING. I like Marquee's light wall, but the things that Light can do with it's rectangular wall of heaven...I've never seen it ever. Because they partnered with Cirque du Soleil to create this club, the dancers/performers here are simply on another level. Don't even get me started when the start doing that crazy Matrix laser thing in the air. Let's just say that it has be experienced to fully understand.
If you don't like EDM, don't bother coming here because that's all they play here. But the lineup of DJs is sick...Sebastian Ingrosso, Nicky Romero, Alesso, Dyro, A-Trak for starters. Nicky Romero just killed it that night I went there...one of the best shows I've ever seen.
All I know is that when you leave the club at 6:45 AM, it was a good night.
