"The Palms takes over management and operations of Apex Social Club once America celebrates its birthday. “The Palms will be taking over operations and management of Apex Social Club beginning on July 4,” a spokesperson says in a statement. “The transition will allow us to provide a seamless and enhanced guest experience across all of our world-class nightlife offerings at the property. We greatly value our partnership with Clique and look forward to continued success with them at Greene St. Kitchen and Side Piece Pizza at the Palms.” That means the Palms now operates and manages all of its nightlife venues, including Kaos Dayclub & Nightclub, which opened in April. Clique Hospitality opened Apex last year in May, taking over the former Ghostbar space. The open-air social club features a 360-degree view of Las Vegas from the outdoor patio and terrace. A retractable glass floor-to-ceiling partition separates the club from the open sky. The space features four pieces of art by Brooklyn-based artist Dustin Yellin dubbed Pyschogeographies. The nearly 3,000-pound humanoid sculptures feature a collage cut from magazines and books, laid down on glass, and fused together with resin to create 3D paintings. All are part of a larger collection of 120 sculptures that are typically displayed like that of the ancient Terracotta Soldiers." - Susan Stapleton
"As part of the Palm’s $690 million renovation, Apex Social Club emerged to take over the former space of longtime Las Vegas mainstay Ghostbar. The destination remains a must for club-goers who seek out rooftop lounges as a part of their Vegas experience. The indoor/outdoor space also features sculptures from Dustin Yellin, local and national DJ entertainment, an upgraded cocktail list, and bottle service." - Krista Diamond
"In 2017, chef Lanny Chin joined Andy Masi's Clique Hospitality as the executive chef at Apex Social Club." - Susan Stapleton
"Diners can find it by departing Vetri Cucina through a stairwell to the 55th floor, home to Apex Social Club." - Susan Stapleton
