Holiday Pop-Ups, Ice-Skating Rinks, and Christmas Bars in Las Vegas

Rouge Room

Not one, but two pop-ups will take over Red Rock Casino’s velvet-draped lounge this holiday season through December 28. Winter Wonderland will adorn the Rouge Room main space with trees, mistletoe, and oversized candy canes, while the Ski Lodge on the patio is complete with heaters and fire pits to cozy up to while sipping cocktails. Choose from one of nine holiday drinks for $19 to $22, or order a six-shot Deck the Halls Tree for your group ($60).

Enchant Christmas at Las Vegas Ballpark

Enchant’s winter wonderland brings the beloved light maze and season’s eatings back to the Las Vegas Ballpark. Vendors like Benyeh, Sugarfina, and many others will line the stands and offer goods and treats, just like an authentic European Christmas market. Enjoy the spiked libations and snacks available throughout, and take a few laps around the looping ice rink surrounded by trees, a light maze, and all-around winter cheer.

The Rock Rink at Downtown Summerlin

Downtown Summerlin’s ice rink is back through January 19, 2026. Rock Rink’s 8,000 square-foot skate zone on the Lawn is surrounded by a holiday train, for tired skaters to rest their feet, and holiday drinks and snacks to enjoy on those crisp winter nights. Rentals start at $18, and Saturdays and Sundays feature morning hours for daytime skating.

Oasis Ice Rink at Fontainebleau Las Vegas

Another icy escape, the Oasis Ice Rink is all elegance at Fontainebleau this winter. Two rinks spanning 7,500 square feet will house perks like holiday cabanas and seasonal films, as part of the resort’s Winter Wonderland extravaganza. Bottle service of Veuve Clicquot Rosé and Yellow Label joins gourmet snacks in the rink’s Winter Village. After skating, warm up in a cabana or by the firepit and take in decor and drinks that balance the upscale and the festive.

Golden Tiki

This Las Vegas classic is going full Christmas with decked-out halls and several brand-new holiday drinks like a rum-punched gingerbread daiquiri and hot gin and cranberry punch, along with a couple boozy sharable fishbowls. A Santa shrunken head and skeletons and skulls wearing the big fella’s signature red hat make up the decor.

Nightmare before Xmas at Más Por Favor Taqueria y Tequila

Más Por Favor is making spooky spirits bright with seasonal takes on classic drinks, like the Sandy Claws Manhattan. A side of Boogie Boys steak tacos or a Jack Skellington brown butter spice cake provide excellent pairings. Catch the fun through January 1.

Miracle on Spring Mountain at the Sand Dollar Lounge

Miracle on Spring Mountain is back with a stacked holiday cocktail list served in custom glassware. For more than 10 years, Miracle has been serving spirited specialties at the Sand Dollar. Wear your favorite Christmas sweater and enjoy cocktails like the tequila-based Krampus and the Jingle Bells Nog, a mixture of cognac, almond milk, cream and nutmeg. The regular lineup, including classics like the Christmapolitan will also make a comeback.

‘Tis the Season at Rosina Cocktail Lounge

Bartenders at the Venetian’s Rosina Cocktail Lounge have added a couple limited-time drinks to be served through Christmas day. These spirits include a refreshing coconut margarita, a white chocolate flavored Christmas cookie martini, and the S’mores Old Fashioned topped with a toasted marshmallow.

Miracle on Easy St.

This sweet speakeasy behind the Proper Eats doughnut stall is hosting a limited-time pop-up and cocktail series amongst Christmas-y decor. Miracle on Easy St. offers single cocktails alongside the Dasher, Dancer, and Prancer shot trio. Holiday bar hoppers can also opt for a Bumpy Sleigh Ride, consisting of a shot of Absolut Elyx with a caviar bump for $35.

Close Company Christmas

Those visiting the Via Via Food Hall can pop into Close Company for comforting holiday cocktails. Much like the Miser brothers in the cartoon classic The Year Without a Santa Claus, our two favorite drinks are hot and cold with a steamy apple cider-based Casamigos Reposado tequila wassail warming the soul, and a creamy peppermint nog to cool you down. Order with a Hotboi, a Sicilian slice of pizza topped with pepperoni, hot honey and jalapeno. And don’t forget to drop a letter to Santa in the mailbox on your way out.

Santa’s Saloon at The Palms

It’s a ho, ho, hoedown at Santa’s Saloon inside the Palms. This over-the-top Wild West wonderland is far from any holiday pop-up you’ve ever experienced. This theatrical, rowdy cowboy dive bar includes a wild cast of characters – including drunk Santa and hunky Rudy the Rudolph – plus burlesque performances, risque jokes and a Naughty Jail photo opp. Holiday-themed drinks get served in festive photo-ready glasses and shareable dishes include chicken wings, empanadas, and birria tacos. The saloon experience runs through December 28.

The Cabinet of Curiosities

Even under all the string lights and tinsel, it’s still the cocktails that shine at this Horseshoe basement bar, which specializes in teaching guests the tricks of mixology. Featured cocktails – all served in cartoony mugs matching their monikers – include the bourbon heavy Santa’s Night Cap, a Grinchy rum, peppermint eggnog, and Mrs. Claus’s Hangover Cure consisting of gin, lime juice, passion fruit, and hibiscus syrup.

Flanker Kitchen + Sports Bar

Flanker Kitchen and Sports Bar returns with its Christmas Parlor holiday experience at Mandalay Bay. The pop-up shows clips of classic Christmas films on bar televisions, among the lights and baubles hanging from the ceiling. Holiday cocktails range from a tropical Santa Colada to a coffee and bourbon flavored Nutcracker Punch; snacks include wings with a cranberry chili glaze and carne asada steak nachos topped with red and green salsa. Don’t miss the karaoke room in the back of the bar, and there’s a sneaky Elf on the Shelf to find as well.

Mariah Carey’s Holiday Bar

The Queen of Christmas has her own pop-up bar this season. Although her two-week Christmas residency has ended, Mariah Carey fans can still get in the holiday mood at On the Record inside Park MGM. The space has plenty of photo opportunities, including Santa’s sleigh and a little nook with the singer’s album covers displayed on shelves. A 90-minute experience starts at $19.90 and includes a welcome cocktail. But hurry in because the pop-up ends December 23.

‘Twas the Knight at Tournament of Kings

While the idea of Tournament of Kings isn’t a new one, its annual Christmas spectacular ‘Twas the Knight is worth at least one visit for locals and visitors alike. Join King Arthur and his knights in merry combat while enjoying a special holiday feast of Cornish game hen, roasted potatoes, vegetables, and a pumpkin pastry, all served sans silverware. Enjoy two showtimes nightly (except Tuesdays) at Excalibur until December 25.

Holiday Hideaway at House of Blues

The House of Blues is transforming into a wintery lodge with some après-ski charm. Through December 26 it will be known as the Holiday Hideaway where guests will sip mulled wine and cocktails like the Cozy Cabin Coquito, a blend of rum and coconut with star anise, cloves, and cinnamon. Visitors can fortify the experience with yellowtail tartare tacos and short rib grilled cheese.

Ethel M Chocolates Holiday Cactus Garden

Ethel M Cactus Garden has been welcoming guests to experience this outdoor wonderland for 32 years. Stroll among illuminated cactus displays starting at 5 p.m. (Christmas excluded) through January 3. A $3 entrance fee will be donated to the Three Squares Food Bank and HELP of Southern Nevada. Afterward, stop in the factory to take home chocolates, truffles, and liqueurs.

Todo Bien Christmas Pop-Up

This lively tequila bar and restaurant at UnCommons embraces the holidays with a mix of bright lights and flashy cocktails. Holiday drinks include the tropical Ubaes in Toyland, made with spiced rum, ube, pineapple and coconut, a banana bread carajillo, and the Nightmare Before Christmas, a tequila and horchata blend.

Bad Elf at the Silverton Casino Hotel

Silverton Casino’s Shady Grove Lounge is returning with its Bad Elf pop-up bar. The iconic Airstream trailer plunked in the middle of this festive enclave will sport its best green and red decorations, while the cocktails range from spiked hot chocolate to a peppermint-infused white Russian. Stop by starting at 5 p.m. Thursdays through Sundays until December 28.

Winter at the Terrace at Green Valley Ranch Resort Spa and Casino

This decadent outdoor experience at the Green Valley Ranch Lobby Terrace returns with even more sweets and sips for the holiday season. Relax in an igloo or by a toasty fire pit to enjoy seasonal cocktails and holiday-coded snacks. Winter on the Terrace features a decked-out hot chocolate cart with festive flavored marshmallows and Bailey’s cordial enhancements to go with classic s’mores, charcuterie towers, bacon-wrapped dates, Scotch eggs, and more.
