Eight Lounge put a 10 p.m. DJ set at the center of its Saturday, July 25, 2026 lineup at Resorts World Las Vegas, turning its cigar room into a late-night stop after doors opened at noon. The setup fit the room’s own pitch: a polished space that is “sexy and energetic,” built to move from a classic daytime cigar bar into a lively “cigar-friendly” lounge after dark.

The event listing put the emphasis on inventory as much as atmosphere. Eight said it had more than 150 premium cigars on hand, including limited-edition selections, a key draw for smokers who still want the room to function like a serious humidor stop rather than a background lounge. That mix matters on the Strip, where cigar buyers often want a seat, a drink and time to talk, while other guests want music, a social scene and a night that can stretch past dinner.

Eight’s own calendar suggests the DJ night was part of a broader programming strategy, not a one-off experiment. The lounge has promoted live DJs every Friday and Saturday night, along with themed events such as Sticks & Kicks and a Longest Ash cigar competition. Taken together, those events show a venue trying to keep a cigar room active after dark instead of leaving it in the quiet, after-dinner lane that still defines many lounges.

That approach has been part of Eight since it was announced in August 2021 as a Resorts World opening for that fall. The launch promise was already clear then: more than 150 premium cigars, including exclusive and limited-edition smokes. The lounge opened on Nov. 4, 2021, and its grand opening featured drinks, limited-edition cigars and live music, while KLAS said the space spans 7,000 square feet of indoor-outdoor room overlooking the Las Vegas Strip.

Eight is at 3000 S Las Vegas Blvd inside Resorts World Las Vegas, and its programming keeps pushing the same message from launch to now: this is not just a place to buy a cigar. For cigar hobbyists, the draw remains selection and conversation. For visitors looking for a high-energy night out, the DJ slot makes the room feel closer to the Strip’s nightlife circuit than a traditional smoke shop, which is exactly where Eight seems intent on living.
