This month, we’re ready to celebrate – we celebrate Lunar New Year, Black History Month, Valentine’s Day, the Superbowl, and much more. From incredible museums to fun events, here’s everything you can’t miss this February in Las Vegas:
Rock’n’Roll Las Vegas
Ready to run the Strip at night? It’s such a cool experience, whether you’re a regular runner, or just in for the vibes. Go for the 5K, 10K, half-marathon, or all in: 42 kms. It’s the only race where you can stay out all night and sleep all day…let’s hear it for the fit party people! It takes place on February 21-22, and yes, there’s an afterparty.
Grab your coats (seriously, that desert chill is no joke): the Snow Moon is rising this weekend, and you don’t want to miss it. Signaling the beginning of February, this beautiful full moon will light up the Vegas sky on Sunday. While the moon officially reaches its peak illumination around 2 PM, it will still be below the horizon. The real show starts just after sunset! Read more about the meaning of “Snow Moon” here.
Catch a wonderful Candlelight concert
If you’re looking for a romantic night out – Valentine’s, anyone? – we have the perfect plan for you. Take your loved one and head to a Candlelight concert, where you’ll hear tunes that you know and love played in a unique way. This month, you can check out the Queen vs. Abba (tickets here) show, or the 90s Hip-Hop on Strings for a serious dose of nostalgia (tickets here).
The Super Bowl returns this month, bringing the biggest night in football back into the spotlight. Two NFL powerhouses will battle it out on the sport’s grandest stage, alongside a headline-making halftime show that always draws just as much attention as the game itself. Catch the New England Patriots vs. the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday February 8, 2026. And don’t miss Bad Bunny! If you’re in Vegas, there’s no shortage of incredible spots to watch it all unfold – find the best spots in Sin City here!
Lunar New Year Parade
Head Downtown for an amazing parade, celebrating the Year of the Horse. It kicks off in the late morning/noon, and it’s a vibrant explosion of lion dances, martial arts demonstrations, and firecrackers. Check it out on February 21. Other events:
- Downtown Summerlin is also kicking off the Year of the Horse with their annual parade
- Check out Bellagio’s display for Lunar New Year (free to visit)
- Fashion Show Mall has its center decorated with Lunar New Year lanterns
- See traditional dances and a gorgeously decorated atrium at The Venetian

ARTE Museum Las Vegas is the kind of experience that truly comes to life in person. This digital art exhibition places visitors in fascinating environments, immersive soundscapes, and sweeping projections that feel otherworldly.

Celebrate Valentine’s – or Galentine’s Day in Vegas this February
Whether we’re talking romantic or friendship, it’s definitely the month of love. And let’s be honest – there aren’t many more cities better fit to celebrate the occasion. From dinners to parties, small events and chances to connect, Vegas has it all. Below are our top recommendations for this special day!
See the 17th Annual Black History Month Festival this February in Las Vegas
This one isn’t negotiable, as it’s one of the best family events of the year! It features authentic African cuisine, local artists, history exhibits, influential speakers, and live music. It takes place on February 14 at Springs Reserve, and tickets are just $9.95 for non-member adults, and $4.95 for children. This year’s theme is “A Century of Black History Commemorations”.
Dream Asia Festival
The festival’s tagline says it all: “Bite-sized culture. Big-time flavor.” This event aims to bring everyone together through the magic of (and love for) food. From NYC’s hottest Asian street eats to family recipes, it’s a flavor-packed adventure that no foodie can miss. It takes place between 13-15 February at Downtown Las Vegas Events Center, and tickets start from just $15.
TITANIC – The Artifact Exhibition
Step aboard one of history’s most poignant stories with TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition – Las Vegas, an unforgettable journey into the world of the Ship of Dreams. This acclaimed exhibition brings over 350 authentic artifacts recovered from the Titanic wreck site together with meticulously crafted full‑scale re‑creations of the ship’s most memorable spaces. You can walk the deck, touch a real iceberg, and connect with powerful personal stories from that fateful night. Grab your ticket below!
Oh my god, they’re NOT back again…okay, not to be dramatic, maybe they will be. But for now, we’re saying goodbye to beloved Backstreet Boys, who have been the talk of the town for many months. The boyband performs their last shows this month at Sphere. If you haven’t partied like it’s the early 2000’s yet, this is your sign, and your last chance.
P.S.: no worries – there are so many exciting residencies coming up – check them all here.
Catch an NRL Rugby League game this February in Las Vegas
Allegiant Stadium hosts the The Australian National Rugby League this month, and we’re super excited. If you’re big into rugby, it’s obvious why you should attend. But, even if you aren’t – add this one to your list of February things-to-do. Last year this event brought a unique crowd and an amazing vibe. Even if you don’t know the rules, tickets are often more affordable than Raiders games, and the atmosphere is simply awesome. It takes place on February 28.
GYU+, known for their iconic Japanese steak and egg sandos, is growing! The popular Chinatown spot has just opened a second location on West Sunset Road in Southwest Las Vegas. The menu favorites are still front and center: the steak sando, packed with a half-pound of beef filet, onion jam, secret sauce, and shokupan bread, and the egg sando, made with diced jidori eggs, mayo, secret sauce, and shokupan bread. Check them out!
The Rat Pack is Back brings the golden era of Vegas to life with a tribute show set in the Sands Hotel Copa Room. Expect uncanny renditions of Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin backed by a live band, complete with the charm, humor, and swagger that defined the original Rat Pack. It’s one of those rare Vegas shows that leans into nostalgia in a way that actually feels fun, and is treat of a time capsule for anyone who wishes they could’ve seen Vegas in its heyday.
Nice and cool weather makes February an ideal time to explore the canyons and mountains around. If you wanna leave the city behind and spend more time outdoors, you’re in luck. Just 50 miles from the Strip, Lee Canyon Ski and Snowboard Resort at Mount Charleston offers winter fun for everyone, from thrill-seekers to kids who enjoy playing in the snow.
