This summer, there’s no better place on the Strip to kick off the weekend a little early than The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas’ Sunset Cocktail Hour. Taking place every Thursday from 6:30 until 8:30 p.m., the poolside affair debuted last year and quickly made a splash with guests, attracting approximately 2,500 people during its inaugural season. Transforming the patio on the north end of the resort’s Boulevard Pool into a rooftop cocktail haven, the seasonal event invites hotel guests as well as the general public to enjoy live music from an eclectic lineup of DJs — including French DJ/saxophonist Natty Rico — while relishing a menu of tasty food and beverage offerings and striking Strip views. “Kicking off the weekend early on Thursday is fitting for guests traveling to Las Vegas on an extended weekend or locals who are looking to hit the Strip after a long week,” said Julian Griffiths, senior vice president of food and beverage at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. “With live entertainment, the best views of the Las Vegas
Strip and unparalleled food and drink offerings, Sunset Cocktail Hour is a can’t-miss event.” In addition to featuring some of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas’ signature drinks, Sunset Cocktail Hour boasts several exclusive cocktail offerings as well as a Summer Spritz Cart where guests can create their own margarita featuring Calirosa Tequila or a signature Campari Spritz with fresh fruits and house-made syrups. A mouthwatering menu of “casual fare with a twist” is also available, featuring such delectable new dishes as the Smoked Pork Belly Steamed Buns, Crispy Pizza Pockets and Shrimp Salad Lettuce Cups. Sunset Cocktail Hour runs until Oct. 27. Admission is complimentary, with most food and beverage items priced from $10 to $20. Guests must be 21 years of age or older to attend. cosmopolitanlasvegas.com/boulevard-pool
