Details

I’m changing this event to later in January since the holiday season is so hectic for most folks! I’ve moved this month’s event to the Downstairs bar at Viaggio on Eastern. I’m told it has a more cozy and quiet atmosphere that may better allow for folks to chat in larger groups.

Here is some information about the venue from

Not all the lights are bright in downtown Las Vegas.

Inside the Downtown Cocktail Room, you’ll be shielded from the blazing neon outside. Inside this sophisticated and swank gathering place there’s a low, inviting glow. It’s filled with stylish modern design and interesting art — and a clientele to match.

Downtown Cocktail Room is a place about conviviality. It’s where Las Vegans in the know come to enjoy a down-tempo musical soundtrack to their upbeat conversations.

The bar, along with cool neighbors like The Griffin and Beauty Bar, is in the leading wave of the revitalization of downtown Las Vegas. It’s a part of the new Fremont East District, a large-scale entertainment development that promises to bring new life to downtown.

The Downtown Cocktail Lounge is definitely a place to become acquainted with.
