You’re in Las Vegas; it’s time to have fun. Check out a brand new food hall, go cosmic at the Space Prom, and more! Here’s what to do in Las Vegas this weekend (Jan 19 – 21).

1. Try a New Food Hall

Canteen Food Hall

Do you miss the old Rio buffet? We do, too. Sadly, we’re not getting it back, but we are getting Rio’s new Canteen Food Hall. The grand opening is Friday.

This new food hall follows the current Vegas trend and transforms the former iconic buffet space into six distinct culinary counters:

  • Attaboy Burgers
  • Nam Nama (sushi)
  • Tender Crush (fried chicken)
  • Tony Luke (Philly cheesesteaks)
  • Shogun Ramen
  • Southland Burrito Co

When: Opens Friday

Where: The Rio
