Top Group-Friendly Pre-Game Spots in Las Vegas
Vegas isn’t just about the main event whether that’s a concert at the MSG Sphere, a DJ at XS, or a show on Fremont Street. For groups, the pre-game is part of the adventure.
It’s where everyone meets up, takes those first shots, laughs over shared plates, and sets the vibe for the night ahead. The right spot makes all the difference: it has to be fun, social, and big enough to handle a crew of 6, 8, or more.
Here are the top group-friendly pre-game spots in Las Vegas with one destination standing out as the ultimate all-in-one option.
Rooftop Bars – Big Vibes, Big Groups
Rooftop bars are a classic pre-game pick for groups. The open-air atmosphere, skyline views, and loud music create an instant party.
Why groups love rooftop bars:
-
🌆 Plenty of space for large crews
-
📸 Photo-worthy backdrops (hello, group pics!)
-
🎶 Music and DJs to get the night started
-
🍹 Pitchers and shareable cocktails
Great choice for: bachelorette parties and squads who want a lively, trendy vibe.

👉 At Atomic Golf, the rooftop bar delivers this experience with live DJs, panoramic Vegas views, and cocktails designed for groups.
Sports Bars – Laid-Back and Easy
Not every group wants a glam rooftop vibe. Some squads just want to keep it casual, grab a table, and enjoy beers before heading to the show. That’s where sports bars shine.
Why groups love sports bars:
-
🍔 Comfort food that’s easy to share
-
🍻 Buckets of beer & group specials
-
👯 Chill atmosphere where everyone fits in
-
📺 TVs everywhere to keep the energy up
Great choice for: bachelor parties or mixed groups looking for an easy hangout.
👉 Atomic Golf doubles as a sports bar with group menus, big screens, and plenty of beers on tap but with way more entertainment than your average bar.
Cocktail Lounges – Elevated Group Pre-Gaming
For groups who want to dress up and sip something stylish, cocktail lounges are the move. They’re sleek, vibey, and perfect for smaller groups that want quality drinks over quantity.
Why groups love cocktail lounges:
-
🍸 Signature craft cocktails
-
💃 A little more upscale than a sports bar
-
🕺 Great for photo ops and celebrating something special
-
🎵 Chill music that builds into the night
Great choice for: bachelorette crews or birthday squads starting the night in style.
👉 Atomic Golf’s signature cocktails, Atomic Slushies, and creative mixes give you cocktail lounge flair with way more room for bigger groups.
Interactive Group Pre-Game – Something to Do Besides Drink
Here’s the truth: sometimes groups need more than just sitting around a table with drinks. That’s where interactive pre-game spots stand out. Activities give your crew something to bond over, making the night even more fun.
Options include:
-
🎳 Bowling lounges
-
🎯 Dart bars
-
🎮 Arcade bars
But the ultimate? Golf bays at Atomic Golf.
👉 Each bay fits up to 8 people, complete with a private screen, full bar service, and interactive golf games. It’s the perfect icebreaker, especially if your group includes people meeting for the first time.
