Las Vegas Nightclub & Casino Halloween Costume Rules:
- For security reasons, Las Vegas casinos won’t allow you to walk around the casino floors with your face covered, often times extending this rule to anywhere on property. Plan ahead accordingly.
- Avoid hot, complicated, or bulky costumes that will quickly make you uncomfortable in a crowded room.
- While you’ll sometimes see exceptions, club security will usually make you leave costume accessories (as in: swords, fake guns, pitchforks, etc) outside of the club. Plus, your hands will find much better use holding drinks than some fake weapon.
- If you can swing it, be a sport and dress in costume. It makes your night a lot better (even if you don’t expect it).
Costumes Las Vegas Locals Expect To See The Most Of:
- Slutty Harley Quinn
- Donald Trump & Hillary Clinton
- Harambe
- Any Marvel Character
Insider Advice On Costume Contests:
You can win some serious prize money in Las Vegas nightclub costume contests, with prizes ranging from $500 to $10,000, but having judged (or hosted) these contests for way longer than I care to admit, you should know that the winners usually: 1) have large, elaborate, and / or expensive costumes, or 2) are hot girls in slutty outfits.
If that’s not you, by all means participate, but don’t get your hopes up…
