Five Days.
One Place. All In.

The Night Las Vegas Shows Up

Saturday, May 23 is the centerpiece of Memorial Day weekend at Tailgate Beach Club. Hip-hop legend Fat Joe takes the stage for a live poolside performance that will be the talk of the weekend. One of the most iconic voices in the game, performing right on the Las Vegas Strip — this is not a show you sit out.

Tables and cabanas for the Fat Joe show are extremely limited. This is the most in-demand night of the entire Memorial Day weekend — book well in advance. The pool will be packed, the energy will be unmatched, and the playlist will be on point from the first beat to the last.

Conference Finals. Every Game. Every Screen.

Memorial Day weekend 2026 falls right in the heart of the most exciting stretch of the sports calendar. The NBA Conference Finals and NHL Conference Finals are both in full swing — which means five straight days of the best playoff basketball and playoff hockey of the year, all showing simultaneously at Tailgate Beach Club.

NBA Conference Finals

The New York Knicks have punched their ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals after sweeping the 76ers. They'll face either the Detroit Pistons or the Cleveland Cavaliers — a series that's going down to the wire. Out West, the Oklahoma City Thunder have swept their way to the Western Conference Finals, where they'll take on either the San Antonio Spurs or the Minnesota Timberwolves. Victor Wembanyama has been otherworldly — and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to be unstoppable. The NBA Conference Finals schedule runs through Memorial Day weekend and will be live on every screen at Tailgate Beach Club every day we're open.

NHL Conference Finals

The Carolina Hurricanes have been the most dominant team in the NHL Playoffs, sweeping both of their first two opponents and rolling into the Eastern Conference Finals. The other ECF spot will be decided between Buffalo and Montreal. Out West, the Colorado Avalanche — Presidents' Trophy winners — are cruising, while the Vegas Golden Knights are fighting for a chance to defend the city's hockey legacy. The NHL Conference Finals tip off May 22 — right as Memorial Day weekend gets started — and every game will be live at Tailgate Beach Club.
