Meek Mill will return to Drai’s Nightclub for a multi-show Drai’s LIVE engagement beginning on Saturday, April 9. Drai’s spectacular Memorial Day weekend schedule will feature the Grammy-nominated performer, who will take the stage at Drai’s Nightclub on Friday, May 27, and at Drai’s Beachclub for a daytime performance on Saturday, May 28.

“We are proud to produce residencies at the forefront of music so it’s with great excitement that we welcome back Meek Mill,” said Dustin Drai, Vice President of Entertainment, Drai’s Management Group. “As one of the industry’s best and most powerful live performers, we look forward to welcoming him back to the Drai’s LIVE stage and continuing our great partnership.”

Expensive Pain, Mill’s most recent album, is a reflection of his life’s difficulties and accomplishments through bangers and emotional compositions. Championships, which opened at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums and earned him a GRAMMY nomination for Best Rap Album in 2020, is his second chart-topper. Mill’s portfolio includes audience favorites such as “Dreams and Nightmares,” “R.I.C.O.” (feat. Drake), “House Party,” “Respect The Game,” and “100 Summers,” as well as popular new singles such as “Hot” and “Sharing Locations.”

The sweeping 35,000-square-foot beach club, which is 11 stories high and surrounded by spectacular views of the Las Vegas Strip, is known for sensational pool parties, lavish cabanas and bungalows, and live entertainment. You can get tickets to Meek’s tenure here.

Check Out These Photos Of Life Is Beautiful’s Return To Las Vegas

I don’t know about you, but I really, really missed music festivals. And after a year and a half without them, music festivals returned big time this summer, and are now in full swing. Some favorites, like Lollapalooza, Rolling Loud, and Pitchfork Music Festival, all already welcomed fans back to their grounds (and you can look at what’s still to come in our handy hub that we built for you). But there is no festival quite like Life Is Beautiful in Las Vegas.

Taking over Downtown Vegas for the weekend, LiB shows visitors a different side of the desert oasis. It’s not held on the more popular strip area, but in what is commonly referred to as Old Vegas, featuring some of the classic area casinos and hotels as a backdrop and abundant street art on the side of nearly every building. In a city that already feels like a playground, Life Is Beautiful ups the anti, imparting fans with stunning views, top-tier cuisine, educational seminars, and, of course, music. This year saw an impressive slate, including Tame Impala, Green Day, Glass Animals, St. Vincent, Young Thug, ASAP Rocky, and many more. Check out some of the highlights, shot by our own Paul L. Carter, below.
