Nightclub & Bar have announced the results of the Nightclub & Bar Top 100. The list aims to reveal the nation’s highest-grossing nightclub venues.
The research found that 2014 broke records for nightclub revenue across the country, and that the top 10 list features many nightclubs in Las Vegas (shocked?).
The Top 10 were awarded to: XS Nightclub Las Vegas (#1), Hakkasan Las Vegas (#2), Marquee Las Vegas (#3), TAO Nightclub Las Vegas (#4), LIV Miami (#5), Surrender Nightclub Las Vegas (#6), LAVO New York (#7), Story Miami (#8), Hyde Las Vegas (#9), and LAVO Las Vegas (#10).
XS Las Vegas was named the top grossing nightclub in the country. This was the fifth time the nightclub has taken first place, earning a staggering $103 MM-$105MM in gross revenue in 2014.
“We are so proud of how XS has thrived over the past six years, and to be recognized by Nightclub & Bar for a fifth time is a great honor,” said Jesse Waits, managing partner of XS and Tryst Nightclubs. “Being included atop this list confirms what we have always known; the combination of our deep roster of talent and incredible staff makes for an incredible nightlife experience. We are so thankful to our guests for their continued support, and we look forward to maintaining our position as Vegas’ No. 1 nightlife destination for many years to come.”
SBE’s premiere nightlife destination in Los Angeles, Create Nightclub, was the only club in Los Angeles to break the top 20, with $15-$20 million in gross revenue. SBE’s restaurant/nightclub Abbey West Hollywood took spot 21 with $10-15 MM, Fluxx in San Diego earned $10-$15 million at the 25th spot and LA’s Avalon Hollywood took spot 27 earning $10-$15 MM.
