In Las Vegas, the self-styled Entertainment Capital of the World, you’ll never struggle to find somewhere to party.
Sin City is packed with nightclubs, lounges, casino bars and party venues for every taste. But if you want a polished nightclub experience inside a luxury Strip resort, JEWEL Nightclub at ARIA remains one of the major options to know.
JEWEL is a Tao Group Hospitality venue inside ARIA Resort & Casino. It offers a two-level nightclub layout, a dramatic Dreamwall production feature, VIP tables, themed skybox suites and a rotating calendar of DJs, performers and special events.
If that sounds like your kind of scene, here’s everything you need to know about JEWEL Nightclub in Las Vegas.

JEWEL opened in 2016, replacing the nightclub formerly known as Haze. It is located inside ARIA Resort & Casino, one of the main luxury resorts in the CityCenter area on the Las Vegas Strip.
The club spans more than 24,000 square feet of designed nightlife space and is operated by Tao Group Hospitality. The venue is built around a high-energy but more compact nightclub experience than some of the huge mega-clubs in Las Vegas.
As soon as you enter, the atmosphere feels polished and modern. The club uses LED ribbons, VIP banquettes, dramatic lighting and vintage-inspired design details to create a room that feels sleek without being plain.
The main visual feature is the Dreamwall behind the DJ booth. Tao Group describes it as a first-of-its-kind production wall with dual-sided LED video screens and state-of-the-art effects lighting. It gives the club a strong visual identity and helps make the room feel more immersive.
JEWEL is especially good if you want a stylish nightclub inside ARIA without traveling to another resort. It also works well for bachelor and bachelorette parties, birthdays, private events and groups that want table service.
What Is The Layout Of The Club?
JEWEL covers two levels: the Main Club area and the Mezzanine Balcony.
The first floor includes the dance floor, DJ booth, main bars and VIP tables. The DJ booth is backed by the Dreamwall, keeping the performer close to the crowd and giving the room a strong central focus.
The Main Club area is where you’ll find most of the dancing, music, crowd energy and bottle-service activity. If you want the loudest, most social part of the club, this is where you’ll spend most of the night.
When you need a break from the main-room crowd, you can head upstairs to the Mezzanine Balcony. This level overlooks the Main Club and gives you a better view of the room.
The mezzanine is also where you’ll find JEWEL’s themed skybox suites. Current Tao Group materials list five VIP skybox suites: The Bling Tiger, The Studio, The G.O.A.T., The Prestige and The Gallery.
These suites are designed for groups that want more privacy, better views and a more customized VIP experience than a standard table.
When Is Jewel Open?
Current ARIA listings show JEWEL Nightclub open Friday and Saturday from 10:30pm to 4:30am, with Sunday through Thursday closed.
However, Tao Group’s own FAQ lists JEWEL as open Friday, Saturday and Monday from 10:30pm to close, with closing time typically around 4am. Because nightclub schedules can change for industry nights, holidays, EDC Week, private events and special programming, always check the current event calendar before planning your night.
Friday and Saturday are usually the busiest and most reliable nights for visitors. Monday events may be available on select dates, but they should be verified before you go.
To reduce the risk of long lines or guestlist issues, arrive early. If you are relying on guestlist, Tao Group recommends arriving as close to opening as possible and no later than midnight. Guestlist entry is not guaranteed and can close at any time.
What Music Do They Play?
The music at JEWEL depends on the night and the scheduled artist. The club hosts a mix of DJs, open-format nightlife, electronic music, hip-hop, Top 40 and special event programming.
Tao Group currently highlights Steve Aoki, Lil Jon and Murda Beatz as featured artists connected to JEWEL, while the events calendar rotates through resident DJs, special guest performers, holiday events and big-weekend programming.
If you are going for a specific DJ or performer, buy tickets early. When a bigger artist is booked, ticket prices, table minimums and entry demand usually rise.
What’s The Dress Code?
JEWEL’s official dress code is upscale nightlife attire.
Tao Group’s current FAQ says sports attire, athleisure, casual loungewear and swimwear are not permitted. The venue also reserves final discretion over whether an outfit is acceptable.
That means you should avoid athletic shorts, jerseys, gym clothes, flip-flops, swimwear, overly casual loungewear, torn or oversized clothing and anything that looks too casual for a luxury nightclub.
Men are safest in a collared shirt or stylish nightlife shirt, fitted pants or dark jeans and dress shoes or clean fashionable shoes. Women are safest in cocktail dresses, stylish sets, dressy tops, heels, fashionable boots or upscale nightlife outfits.
The old rule-by-rule wording around sneakers, hats and backless sandals is less useful than the current standard: dress upscale and do not look like you came from the gym, pool or couch.
Tip: Coat check is required for general admission and ticket guests when applicable, and it is available for table-service guests for a fee. Avoid bringing large bags or backpacks.
Items Not Allowed Inside
JEWEL has a strict prohibited-items policy. Oversized bags, backpacks, large purses and parcels are not allowed. Small purses are allowed up to a maximum size of 12” x 12” x 6”, and all items are subject to search.
Current prohibited items include:
- Outside food, liquids and gum
- Vaporizers, e-cigarettes and mechanical smoking devices
- Over-the-counter medications
- Illegal drugs and marijuana
- Selfie sticks
- Professional cameras with interchangeable or detachable lenses
- Video cameras, including GoPro, Google Glass and similar recording devices
- Personal computers
- Balloons, flowers, toys, props and inflatables
- Signs larger than 11” x 17” or signs attached to poles or sticks
- Weapons, including firearms, pepper spray and pocket knives
- Sharp objects
Prescription medication may be allowed at management’s discretion only if it is in a properly labeled prescription bottle and the name matches your ID. If medication is important, contact the venue before arriving.
What Is The Age Policy?
JEWEL is strictly 21+. Every guest must show a current, non-expired, valid photo ID.
Accepted identification includes U.S., Canadian, English, Irish and European driver’s licenses or DMV identification cards, passports, military ID cards and Mexico voter ID.
Student IDs, paper IDs, age cards, Mexico Matricula Consular IDs and many international driver’s licenses are not accepted unless specifically listed by the venue. If you are visiting from outside the U.S., bringing a passport is usually the safest option.
How Much Does It Cost To Get In?
JEWEL ticket prices vary by night, artist, demand and how early you purchase.
Older fixed pricing such as “$30-40 for men and $20-25 for women” should be treated only as a rough historical guide, not a current rule. On slower nights, cover may be lower or reduced through guestlist. On major DJ nights, holiday weekends and special events, pricing can be much higher.
The safest way to check current cost is to use Tao Group’s official ticket calendar for your date. If you want table service, request a VIP quote because minimum spends change by night, table location, group size and artist.
What’s The Best Way To Purchase Tickets?
The best way to purchase JEWEL tickets is through the official Tao Group ticket page or official venue links.
Buying tickets in advance gives you a better chance of smoother entry and avoids relying on uncertain door pricing. It is especially important for major artists, holiday weekends, EDC Week, New Year’s Eve and other high-demand dates.
Tickets may sometimes be sold at the door, but entry is not guaranteed if the club is at capacity or the event is sold out.
JEWEL may also offer guestlist on select events. Guestlist is an invite-only or promoter-based offer for reduced admission during certain time restrictions. It does not guarantee entry, and it can close at any time. If you are using guestlist, arrive as early as possible and no later than midnight.
What Are The VIP Options?
For those who want to make their night out extra special, JEWEL offers VIP tables, bottle service, private event options and themed VIP suites.
VIP tables are available on the main floor and mezzanine. Bottle service usually includes a dedicated table area, VIP entry benefits, cocktail service and standard mixers. Final pricing depends on the event, artist, table location and group size.
For more privacy, the club has five skybox suites around the mezzanine:
- The Bling Tiger
- The Studio
- The G.O.A.T.
- The Prestige
- The Gallery
The old article called this suite “The Blind Tiger,” but current Tao Group materials list it as The Bling Tiger.
The G.O.A.T. Suite has a sports theme and is decorated with memorabilia-style design details. Other suites offer different looks, making them useful for birthdays, bachelor parties, bachelorette parties, corporate events and private celebrations.
Because minimums change constantly, do not rely on old package pricing. Contact VIP reservations for current table minimums, inclusions, taxes, fees and gratuity.
