XS Nightclub F1 Weekend 2026: Full Artist Lineup

August 27, 2026

Las Vegas nightlife shifts into another gear during Formula 1 weekend, and XS Nightclub is putting together four consecutive nights of major electronic music talent at Wynn Las Vegas.

From Thursday, November 19 through Sunday, November 22, 2026, the F1 Weekend schedule includes Hugel with special guest Alec Monopoly, The Chainsmokers, Calvin Harris, and RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET]. The lineup makes XS a natural late-night destination for visitors staying at Wynn or Encore and anyone building nightlife into their Las Vegas Grand Prix plans.

There is also an earlier reason to visit. XS Nightclub’s November opening weekend, November 5–8, brings another four-night run featuring RÜFÜS DU SOL, The Chainsmokers, Calvin Harris, and a Diplo B2B Hugel set.

For travelers deciding which weekend to visit—or those planning the complete F1 experience—here’s what to know.

XS Nightclub F1 Weekend 2026 Lineup

The XS Nightclub F1 Weekend schedule runs across the entire race weekend, making it possible to pair daytime and evening Formula 1 experiences with late-night performances at Wynn.

Date	Artist	Venue
Thursday, Nov. 19	Hugel with Special Guest Alec Monopoly	XS Nightclub
Friday, Nov. 20	The Chainsmokers	XS Nightclub
Saturday, Nov. 21	Calvin Harris	XS Nightclub
Sunday, Nov. 22	RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET]	XS Nightclub

Each night has a noticeably different musical identity, which makes the schedule especially appealing for travelers spending the entire race weekend in Las Vegas.

Thursday, November 19: Hugel With Alec Monopoly

F1 Weekend begins at XS Nightclub on Thursday, November 19, with Hugel and special guest Alec Monopoly.

Hugel has become a prominent name in international dance music, particularly through his blend of house rhythms and Mediterranean and Latin influences. That makes Thursday an energetic way to begin a weekend that will only get busier as race day approaches.

The addition of contemporary artist Alec Monopoly gives the evening another dimension, connecting nightlife, music, and visual culture.

For travelers arriving Thursday, the event offers a straightforward first-night plan: check into Wynn or Encore, have dinner on property, and transition into XS without needing another trip across the Strip.

Friday, November 20: The Chainsmokers

The Chainsmokers take over XS on Friday night.

The duo’s catalog crosses electronic, dance-pop, and festival music, making this one of the F1 Weekend lineup’s most accessible nights for groups with different musical tastes.

Friday also marks the point when Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend begins reaching full intensity. Visitors can spend the evening around the circuit before moving into the city’s nightlife scene later that night.

With The Chainsmokers at XS, Friday offers one of the weekend’s biggest crossover electronic performances.

Saturday, November 21: Calvin Harris

Race weekend Saturday belongs to Calvin Harris at XS Nightclub.

Harris has spent years at the intersection of electronic music and mainstream pop, building a catalog filled with globally recognized dance records and collaborations.

That profile makes his November 21 appearance one of the headline nightlife events of the weekend.

Saturday will also be one of the busiest nights in Las Vegas. Anyone planning to attend both race-related events and XS should think about transportation, dinner reservations, ticketing, and arrival times well in advance.

For Wynn and Encore guests, staying within the resort complex can simplify the evening considerably.

Sunday, November 22: RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET]

RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET] closes the four-night run on Sunday, November 22.

The Australian group has developed a distinctive electronic sound built around atmospheric production, melodic house, and emotionally driven songwriting. A DJ set offers a different experience from the group’s traditional live performances, with the focus shifting toward an extended club environment.

Sunday’s event also works as an unofficial finale for travelers who aren’t ready for F1 Weekend to end when the racing does.

After several days of track action, concerts, dinners, and parties, RÜFÜS DU SOL at XS provides one more major event before Monday departures.

Why XS Nightclub Fits F1 Weekend

F1 Weekend is different from a typical Las Vegas getaway.

Visitors aren’t simply choosing a nightclub for one evening. They’re often constructing a tightly scheduled itinerary involving racing, hospitality suites, concerts, dinners, afterparties, and resort experiences.

Location therefore matters.

XS Nightclub is located at Wynn Las Vegas, placing guests at one of the Strip’s major luxury resort destinations without requiring them to leave the property for nightlife.

That creates several advantages.

A guest can have dinner at Wynn, return to their room, change for the evening, and head to XS within the same resort environment. Encore guests have similarly convenient access.

During a weekend when road closures and increased visitor traffic can complicate moving around Las Vegas, reducing unnecessary transportation can be particularly valuable.

Stay at Wynn or Encore for F1 Weekend

Travelers attending multiple nights at XS should consider Wynn Las Vegas or Encore Las Vegas when comparing hotels.

The biggest benefit is convenience.

Instead of arranging transportation back to another resort after a late night, guests can remain within the Wynn and Encore complex.

That also makes it easier to create a complete resort itinerary around F1 Weekend.

A typical day might include a leisurely breakfast, pool or spa time, Formula 1 activities later in the day, dinner back at the resort, and XS at night.

For affluent travelers who prioritize both comfort and efficiency, having dining, accommodations, and nightlife in one location can be more valuable than trying to fit several resorts into every evening.

Make Dinner Part of the Night

One advantage of attending XS is the range of dining options available at Wynn and Encore.

Rather than treating dinner and nightlife as two separate destinations, visitors can build an evening around the resort.

A more relaxed plan might start with cocktails followed by an early dinner and then XS. Travelers looking for a bigger night can book a later dinner before heading directly to the club.

The key during F1 Weekend is leaving enough flexibility between reservations.

Restaurant demand is likely to be high, and race-related transportation can affect schedules throughout the Strip. Staying on property removes at least one major variable.

XS Nightclub’s November Opening Weekend 2026

F1 Weekend isn’t the only notable November lineup at XS.

Earlier in the month, the nightclub is highlighting an opening weekend from November 5 through November 8, with several of the same major artists appearing during four consecutive nights.

Thursday, November 5: RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET]

The weekend begins with RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET] on Thursday.

Travelers interested in the group but unable to visit during F1 Weekend have another opportunity just two weeks earlier.

Friday, November 6: The Chainsmokers

The Chainsmokers follow on Friday, November 6.

Their appearance mirrors the Friday slot they’ll occupy during race weekend on November 20, giving fans two November dates to consider.

Saturday, November 7: Calvin Harris

Calvin Harris headlines Saturday, November 7.

Like The Chainsmokers, Harris returns later in the month for F1 Weekend, when he performs Saturday, November 21.

Sunday, November 8: Diplo B2B Hugel

The opening weekend closes with one of its most interesting combinations: Diplo B2B Hugel.

A back-to-back DJ set allows two artists to share the decks, creating a collaborative performance rather than two conventional individual sets.

For dedicated dance-music fans, this may be the standout reason to consider the November 5–8 weekend independently of F1.

XS November Opening Weekend at a Glance

Date	Artist	Venue
Thursday, Nov. 5	RÜFÜS DU SOL [DJ SET]	XS Nightclub
Friday, Nov. 6	The Chainsmokers	XS Nightclub
Saturday, Nov. 7	Calvin Harris	XS Nightclub
Sunday, Nov. 8	Diplo B2B Hugel	XS Nightclub

Opening Weekend vs. F1 Weekend: Which Should You Choose?

The two weekends have considerable artist overlap but will offer very different Las Vegas experiences.

November 5–8 makes sense for travelers primarily interested in Wynn, XS, and electronic music. Without the enormous F1 Weekend schedule competing for attention, it can be easier to make nightlife the centerpiece of the trip.

November 19–22 is the choice for visitors who want the complete spectacle.

The city will be filled with race-related entertainment, hospitality events, concerts, dining experiences, and parties. XS becomes one piece of a much larger Formula 1 itinerary.

There are also differences in the lineup.

Opening weekend offers the Diplo B2B Hugel performance, while F1 Weekend begins with Hugel featuring special guest Alec Monopoly.

If you’re choosing based primarily on an individual artist, compare the two schedules before selecting travel dates.

How to Plan an XS Night During F1 Weekend

Planning ahead is particularly important during Formula 1 weekend.

Start with your non-negotiable event—the race, a particular XS artist, or another concert—and build the rest of the evening around it.

Consider these practical points:

Purchase nightclub tickets early. Major F1 Weekend events can attract substantial demand.
Confirm event details before traveling. Artist schedules, door times, ticket conditions, and event policies can change.
Allow extra transportation time. Race-week road closures and crowds can make traveling between resorts more complicated.
Reserve dinner in advance. Prime dining times at Wynn and Encore can be competitive during major weekends.
Check nightclub dress requirements. Plan your outfit before leaving for daytime race activities if you won’t be returning to the hotel.
Consider staying at Wynn or Encore. It can eliminate a late-night trip between XS and another Strip resort.
