Start Sin City Classic 2026 the way you mean to finish it: loud, late, and surrounded by winners. KICK OFF: Athlete’s Welcome Party takes over Gipsy and Piranha Nightclub on Thursday, January 15, serving as the official opening-night celebration for athletes, friends, fans, and anyone ready to make Vegas their home court for the weekend.

This night also coincides with Underwear Night at Gipsy, which means the dress code is basically “confidence.” Come as you are, strip down to your boldest self, and lean into the playful, high-energy vibe that only opening night can deliver. Doors open at 9 PM, and the party builds toward midnight—when Gipsy hits 12 AM with Underwear Night in full swing.

From there, head to Piranha for showtime moments that keep the adrenaline pumping: 12:30 AM on the Front Stagefollowed by 1:30 AM on the Main Stage. Expect packed dance floors, big beats, and an electric mix of competitors and nightlife regulars all celebrating one thing: being here, together, right now.

Make it easy to get there with a free shuttle from the Flamingo from 9 PM to 12 AM, and enjoy $10 wells with an SCC wristband. Consider this your official welcome—and your first victory lap.
