SkyBlu kicks off his Wet Republic residency on Sunday.

Welcome to Fabulous Yelp Vegas at Cathouse Although it definitely feels like summer outside, Yelp is throwing its Spring Break celebration this week. Thursday’s installment is a vintage Vegas-themed party at the Luxor lounge, and partygoers are encouraged to wear costumes and enjoy free cocktails and light bites. The best part? A green screen photo op completes this retro soiree. May 17, 8 p.m., free, RSVP required at yelp.com.

Soul Kitchen 9-Year Anniversary at Vanguard The monthly EDM party has been bringing an underground sound to Las Vegas for almost a decade, as it celebrates nine years of DJ-fueled dance parties this Thursday. DJs Pezzner and Sense join resident DJ Edgar Reyes. May 17, 9 p.m., free.

Benny Benassi at Marquee The Grammy-winning producer has worked with some of entertainment’s biggest names, recently collaborating with Chris Brown (“Beautiful People”) and T-Pain (“Electroman”). He returns for his residency at the Cosmo club Friday night. May 18, doors at 9:30 p.m., $30 men, $20 women, local ladies free.

Neon Night Swim at the Royal House Collective Zoo continues its traveling Pool Party Safari series with an after-sunset edition Saturday night. Dancing in the dark won’t be necessary, as neon lights will be scattered throughout the space, and a black light will illuminate the pool. Revelers are encouraged to match the decor with neon swimwear and can partake in an open vodka bar from 7 to 8 p.m. May 19, 7 p.m., free.

LL Cool J at Rehab Ladies love cool James; do you? If so, you’ll want to be at the Hard Rock Pool for its weekly poolside bash. The Grammy winner takes the stage on Sunday joined by mash-up master DJ Z-Trip. Check out the pair’s collaborative track, “Super Baller,” before you go. May 20, doors at 10 a.m., $50 men, $30 women, local ladies free.

Sky Blu at Wet Republic Redfoo isn’t the only LMFAO-er with a Strip-side residency, as Sky Blu returns to launch his own this weekend. This time around he’s at a dayclub, so enjoy the Party Rock revelry under the sun this summer at the MGM ultra pool—it all begins Sunday. May 20, doors at 11 a.m., $40 men, $20 women.

Night Swim at XS What happens when a nightclub neighbors a pool? Be at Encore Sunday to find out, as XS launches its moonlit party for the summer season. Providing the tunes: esteemed resident DJs Tiësto and Robbie Rivera. No sunscreen (or dress shoes) necessary. May 20, doors at 10 p.m., $30 men, $20 women.

Jack-N-Cake at Ghostbar Salt, tequila, lime—standard stuff. Jack Daniel’s and a cupcake? Now we’re talking! The special edition of Snitch is back, and so are its signature treats, served as chasers. Sweetening the deal is a shot at winning tickets to Electric Daisy Carnival, which rolls in to Las Vegas Motor Speedway in less than a month. May 23, 10 p.m., $20.
