Tailgate Beach Club Debuts at Mandalay Bay with Snoop Dogg
Tailgate Beach Club, Las Vegas’ new sports and pop culture dayclub at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, celebrated its grand opening Saturday, with an all-day event featuring a live performance by Snoop Dogg, as well as appearances from some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment.
Located just blocks from Allegiant Stadium, Tailgate Beach Club debuted as a new kind of Las Vegas dayclub experience built for game day, fight night, finale night, and every major cultural moment in between. This 50,000-square-foot venue features more than 125 feet of LED screens, three heated pools, 25 luxury cabanas, and two premium bungalows, creating a sports-first poolside destination made for pool loving people together year-round, for the biggest moments in sports and pop culture.
“The idea behind Tailgate was simple: create a place where game day, music and Las 
Vegas daylife all live together,” said Andy Masi, Founder of Clique Hospitality. “Seeing the venue full for the grand opening, with fans watching games and Snoop performing, was exactly the kind of experience we set out to build.”
Just a few of the mix of athletes, entertainers, and reality personalities including Tony Hawk, George Kittle, Nick Bosa, Kyren Williams, members of the Love Island USA cast from various seasons, and more. Throughout the event, guests enjoyed the venue’s sports and pop culture dayclub experience, including live entertainment, athlete appearances, and more.
The event also featured surprise birthday celebrations for Tony Hawk and Claire Kittle with cakes presented on-site during the grand opening.
Love Island cast in attendance included Daniela N. Ortiz Rivera, Ciaran Davies, Charlie Georgio, Courtney “coco” Watson, Pepe Garcia, and many more.
Players from the San Francisco 49ers included Dominick Puni, Demarcus Robinson, George Kittle, Mac Jones, Nick Bosa, Luke Gifford, Jake Tonges, Drake Nugent and Ricky Pearsall.
The first day offered guests a first look at Tailgate Beach Club’s unique programming model, which blends the energy of a Las Vegas dayclub with the atmosphere of a stadium-style sports experience. Throughout the day, guests were able to catch professional basketball and hockey playoff action, fight-night programming, and live entertainment across the venue’s large-scale LED screens.
The weekend will bring live music, Latin entertainment, poolside sports viewing, live entertainment and the venue’s signature stadium-style atmosphere to one of Las Vegas’ biggest weekends.
Tailgate Beach Club is now open at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino and will feature ongoing programming tied to major sporting events, live entertainment, reality TV watch parties, playoff season, fight nights, and pop culture moments throughout the year.
