LIGHT Nightclub at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, the first nightclub turned on by the creative minds behind Cirque du Soleil, presents Hippie Chic: A journey of art, fashion and discovery on Wednesday, September 24. Fringe, feathers, flowers meet LIGHT’s state-of-the-art production for a theatrical night of art, fashion and discovery accompanied by epic sounds from house heroes Sultan + Ned Sheppard.

LIGHT, with event sponsors M.A.C and Parasuco Jeans, will be completely transformed to catch the essence of the “Hippie” lifestyle–vibrant colors, paired with the sophisticated style as seen at new age festivals such as Coachella and Lollapalooza.
Hippie Chic: A journey of art, fashion and discovery will also feature:
- The featured cocktail for this event is the Wanderlust, a liquid concoction containing Szechuan buzz button‘s, which has a numbing effect on your mouth, and 50 Bleu Ultra Premium Vodka.
- “The Bumbys,” an anonymous performance-art duo that compose what they call a “Fair and Honest Appraisal of Your Appearance” will have a station inside where party-goers will have an opportunity to get “Bumby’ed” while simultaneously enjoying drinks.
- Charmaine Olivia, whose illustrations, photography and paintings have appeared in publications, museums, galleries and private collections throughout the world, will contribute art pieces to event to be on display. Some of her clients and projects include Urban Outfitters, Lady Gaga, Hallmark, Volcom Stone, Element, Nylon Magazine, & Inked Girls Magazine.
- Los Angeles based artist, Sarah Sandin, will have a live mural on display.
