Love Festival @ The Palms
Love Fest Memorial Day Weekend @ The Palms

We knew that the N9NE Group and Palms Casino Resort would go big for Memorial Day weekend but we didn't know it would be this big. In hosting The Love Festival, a tradition in major cities all over the world, they continue to live up to its name as the one-stop, unrivaled Las Vegas destination. The Love Festival is a myriad of events featuring entertainment by acclaimed DJs recognized throughout the world, Thursday through Sunday, May 21 - 24.

TIP: Ladies leave the purse at home cause you won't want anything to get in the way of your groovin'. Gents bring your wallets so you can pay for a table to reel in all the ladies who didn't bring their purses but brought their A-game on the dance floor.
