About We All Scream
We All Scream is a one-of-a-kind downtown Las Vegas venue that mixes club nightlife with an ice cream parlor and art gallery. Located at 517 East Fremont Street (the former Beauty Bar space) in Fremont East, it occupies about 10,000 square feet of indoor-outdoor space (vegas.eater.com ). The concept was launched by Corner Bar Management (the team behind Commonwealth and Park on Fremont) and officially opened in May 2022 (www.vegassidekick.com ). Local media describe it simply as “a nightclub and ice cream” (vegas.eater.com ) – a place where guests can dance to DJs by night and dig into ice cream treats by day. The aesthetic was designed to look like a retro 1950s soda shop (complete with brass fixtures, dark wood and old-time décor) that transforms into a vibrant club scene after dark (vegas.eater.com ).
Inside, the building is divided into multiple areas: a main indoor bar and dance floor, a back-alley patio under string lights, and an upstairs rooftop bar and dance floor with 360-degree views of Downtown Las Vegas (vegas.eater.com ). The walls are covered with huge colorful murals by celebrated street artists (for example, the international teams PichiAvo and Bicicleta Sem Freio) and dripping with neon lights, giving the space a “warren of wonderment” vibe (www.vegassidekick.com ) (www.vegas24seven.com ). One press release even highlights the whimsical decor: there’s a custom DJ booth shaped like an ice cream cone on the roof and an actual vintage ice cream truck converted into a DJ booth on the patio (www.vegassidekick.com ) (www.vegassidekick.com ). All of this combines to create a playful, artsy atmosphere – as one reviewer put it, We All Scream offers “an energetic vibe” as both a nightclub and art space (we-all-scream.restaurants-world.com ).
Another key feature is the in-house ice cream. We All Scream partnered with local craft brand Sorry Not Sorry Creamery to install a full-scale ice cream parlor. This creamery serves up eight classic flavors (six dairy-based and two vegan) right at the venue (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). The ice cream shop’s hours extend from midday through late night (typically 12pm–11pm Sunday–Wednesday and 12pm–close Thursday–Saturday) with indoor service opening at 9pm when the club gets going (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). Crucially, We All Scream operates its creamery as a not-for-profit: proceeds from ice cream sales are used to fund local arts projects (www.vegassidekick.com ). This focus on art – along with the dessert theme – makes We All Scream stand out as a nightlife destination that actively supports the local creative scene.
Events and Programming
We All Scream’s calendar is built around high-energy dance nights and special music events. On most weekends the club throws big Friday and Saturday dance parties featuring DJs playing EDM, house, dubstep, Latin beats and other genres. Promotional write-ups advertise, for example, that “every Friday and Saturday night, We All Scream offers a unique blend of clubbing, music, art, and ice cream in downtown Las Vegas” (www.vegas4locals.com ). These regular weekend events typically run from around 10pm until the early morning and draw a young, club-going crowd. The venue even takes part in Fremont East’s downtown bar crawl, The BLOCK, where one wristband covers several venues – We All Scream included – with a set number of drink credits (www.vegas24seven.com ).
Beyond the routine club nights, We All Scream also hosts ticketed concerts and themed events. In 2023 it partnered with Sorry Not Sorry Creamery for a special launch party; the local ice cream brand threw a Sept. 21 launch event featuring New York DJ Interplanetary Criminal performing from the vintage truck DJ booth (www.ktnv.com ). The club’s event schedule often focuses on electronic and bass music. For instance, an upcoming January 2026 listing was “RVLTN & Bassrush Presents: Eliminait” (a dubstep/bass lineup) with tickets around $66 (concerts50.com ). Other recent acts on the schedule included touring EDM artists like Simula and VRG for late 2025 dates (all age 21+ events) (electronic.vegas ) (me-ticket.com ). In general, regular club nights carry door covers in the $10–$20 range, while big-name DJ concerts or festivals can be more expensive – one press notice cites a $10 cover for a We All Scream launch party (www.ktnv.com ), whereas published listings for major events show ticket prices in the tens of dollars (concerts50.com ).
Themed promote nights also appear. We All Scream has tried genre nights – for example, one guest reported a lively “Latin Night” on a Thursday – and they run fun promotions. One popular party (the “Cherry Poppin’ Birthday Bottle Bash”) celebrates guests who turn 21: during their birthday week, they get a free bottle of vodka and free entry for up to six friends (with a drinks minimum) (www.vegas24seven.com ). In short, the programming is very nightlife-oriented: expect pulsing electronic music, lively DJs from Las Vegas and beyond (www.vegas24seven.com ), and a colorful party atmosphere intertwined with the venue’s ice cream theme.
Tickets and Booking
Tickets for We All Scream events can be purchased through the club’s official channels (website or affiliated ticket vendors) – particular concert nights are often listed on sites like Eventbrite or AXS with links to buy in advance. For example, a November 2025 Simula concert was advertised with a “Buy Tickets” link on an event page (electronic.vegas ). Standard club nights may not require advance tickets, but popular weekends can have a cover charge at the door. In practice, expect door prices of around $10-20 for ordinary club nights (price may differ by gender on some nights), and higher for special concerts. As examples from public listings, an upcoming hip-hop show was $20 (concerts50.com ), while a bass music event was set at $66 (concerts50.com ). Wherever possible, buy tickets early since big events can sell out.
Group bookings and VIP tables are an option, but advance reservation is recommended. We All Scream offers bottle service tables for parties, which secure a reserved area for your group. (These are usually arranged by contacting the venue directly or through their hosts.) For planning purposes, note that all events are strictly 21+, and a valid photo ID is always required at the door. There is no traditional box office at the venue, so online booking or promoter outlets are the main routes. Occasionally tickets may be available at the door, but the safest strategy is to secure entry in advance via official tickets or announced guest-list promos to avoid long lines (www.ktnv.com ).
Seating and Layout
There is no fixed theater-style seating – We All Scream is mostly general-admission open space. The ground floor has a large dance floor in front of the main ice cream parlor–style bar, and a few high-top tables and ledge seating along the perimeter. Upstairs, the rooftop deck is another open dance floor with a second bar. The patio (downstairs, behind the main floor) also functions as a dance area with its own DJ stage. In total there are multiple levels and dance areas, so patrons can spread out between the main room, the patio and the roof. Many guests recommend the rooftop when the weather is nice, since it tends to be less cramped. As one visitor noted, “there’s a dance floor on the roof. I hate how crowded normal clubs are and I like to have some room to dance” (concerts50.com ).
VIP sections are available: guests who reserve bottle service get allocated lounge space with tables near the DJs. Otherwise, expect to stand or dance wherever you can fit. Sightlines are generally good – thanks to the open layout, you can see the DJs from the main floor or from the roof deck. The venue’s sound system helps with coverage: according to press notes, high-end Void Acoustics speakers power the DJ booth and fill the room (www.vegas24seven.com ). In short, the layout is simple and open (think two connected dance floors rather than tiered stands) – the tradeoff is a lively, social environment at the cost of assigned seating.
Getting There and Parking
We All Scream sits in the heart of Downtown Las Vegas at the corner of 5th Street and E. Fremont Street. The official address is 517 E. Fremont Street (vegas.eater.com ). It’s just a few blocks east of the Fremont Street Experience canopy and near other Fremont East bars. If driving, the most convenient parking is the Fremont Street Experience parking garage (111 S. 4th Street). This garage is widely regarded as the best downtown lot – it’s on 4th St between Fremont and Carson – and it charges about $4 per hour with a $20 daily maximum (vegasexperience.com ) (vegasexperience.com ). Rates can fluctuate for big events, so be alert for any event-day flat fees. Other paid lots and street meters are also scattered around Fremont East, but the 4th St garage is usually easiest.
Las Vegas taxi or rideshare services can drop passengers off on E. Fremont Street near 5th or 6th. Rideshare drop-off/pick-up zones in the Fremont East area allow curbside access just a block from the club entrance. Several RTC bus routes serve the Fremont area (for example, the Downtown Loop and Strip/Template routes end nearby), and the new Downtown Grand or Fremont Street stations are within walking distance. If coming from the Strip, it’s often easiest to take Route 108 or the “Deuce” bus to downtown and walk a few blocks. In any case, plan for some foot crossing – downtown streets can be busy at night.
Inside the Venue
Expect a festive but active nightclub atmosphere inside. The music is loud (electronic and dance beats), the lights are bright and colorful, and people are there to party. Door staff enforce a strict 21+ policy – be sure to carry a valid photo ID. Security checks are thorough: visitors report very careful pat-downs and bag inspections at the entrance (we-all-scream.restaurants-world.com ). Once inside, you’ll find two bar areas staffed by friendly bartenders. The main bar serves cocktails, draft and bottled beer, wine, and specialty “boozy shakes.” A guest tip mentions the famous strong “AMF” cocktail as a must-try (concerts50.com ). Cocktails and drinks tend to be priced typical for the Strip (often $10–$15 or more each) (we-all-scream.restaurants-world.com ). We All Scream also boasts a notably wide “bottle service” menu for groups (www.mapquest.com ).
On the food side, aside from ice cream treats there is no full kitchen (the house ice cream booth is the main food offering). The Sorry Not Sorry Creamery station on the ground floor dispenses scoops, sundaes and boozy shakes through most of the night – with dairy and vegan options available (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). The ice cream station typically opens around noon, ramps up to full indoor operation after about 9pm, and stays busy until closing (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). If you’re hungry outside club hours, plan to eat before you arrive (see Nearby Amenities below).
We All Scream provides standard nightclub amenities: there are restrooms on the main level (including gender-neutral facilities) (we-all-scream.restaurants-world.com ), small coat-check areas (usually for a modest fee), and merchandise stands with club T-shirts. Wi-Fi is not typically advertised, and cell reception can vary, so don’t count on connectivity in the crowd. Photography with personal phones is common (since the venue is very photo-friendly decor), though professional cameras or video setups may be restricted by event rules. As a reminder, smoking is not allowed indoors; any cigarettes must be taken outside to the patio. Overall, inside the club you can freely dance with friends, grab art-inspired cocktails at one of the bars, and even swing by the ice cream counter without ever leaving the music.
Nearby Amenities
Being downtown, We All Scream is surrounded by plenty of restaurants and hotels. Within a short walk are many Fremont Street eateries – for example, Pizza Rock (artisanal pizza) on 3rd Street, Carson Kitchen (upscale comfort food) on 6th Street, and Nacho Daddy (Mexican cuisine in the Container Park) are all nearby. A few bars and lounges are also in the block, such as Commonwealth (cocktails) and Golden Tiki (exotic drinks a few blocks away). Most visitors eat on Fremont East before a show – lunch or early dinner at these spots then walk over for the event.
Hotels within walking distance include Fremont Street casinos like The D (Downtown Grand) and Circa (both under 0.5 miles away). The Golden Nugget and Four Queens are also a few blocks west on Fremont. For more lodging choices, the newer Circa and Plaza hotels, plus the old Resorts World casino, are a short drive away. If you’re staying on the Strip, expect a 15-20 minute taxi or Lyft ride (routes 108 or the Deuce bus also run from the Strip to Fremont Drive).
After the club, rideshares and taxis are readily available on Fremont Street. If you need a late-night snack, walk a block to grab pizza or street food — but note, most restaurants close around midnight. Fremont East is safe to navigate at night, thanks to heavy foot traffic and pedestrian-mall lighting. Just remember to always travel with friends and keep an eye on your belongings in the crowded club environment.
What Makes This Venue Special
We All Scream’s unique blend of elements really sets it apart on the Las Vegas nightlife map. No other club pairs a dessert shop with a dance floor – you can literally be ordering ice cream cones while standing next to a DJ booth (vegas.eater.com ) (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). The attention to theme and detail is remarkable (even innocent “sprinkles” décor on the ceiling catches people’s eye (concerts50.com )). It’s also socially conscious: as a non-profit ice creamery it funnels ice cream sales to local arts projects (www.vegassidekick.com ), making it as much a community venue as a party spot. Early press and reviews praised the “art-filled nightclub and not-for-profit ice creamery” concept (www.vegassidekick.com ).
The fact that Corner Bar’s Ryan Doherty and team chose this concept highlights its creative ambition. They’ve called Sorry Not Sorry Creamery “a Vegas-born brand” that fits their vision for a fun, guilt-free night out (www.ktnv.com ). Famous muralists were commissioned to cover the walls, so the décor feels like a gallery one minute and a neon nightclub the next (www.vegassidekick.com ) (www.vegas24seven.com ). From a cultural standpoint, We All Scream has become a talking point on Fremont Street — it’s often listed among the most instagrammable nightspots in Vegas thanks to the cone-shaped DJ booth and bright art. The mix of dessert, art and dark dance music attracts both locals and tourists looking for something fresh. As one venue summary put it, it aims to be “a go-to destination for both locals and tourists looking for a memorable experience,” offering “something for everyone” (www.mapquest.com ). In short, its imaginative design, local-art mission, and novelty factor make We All Scream a truly special Las Vegas club experience.
Visitor Tips and Information
Age and ID: All nights are strictly 21+ (or advertised 21+ shows). You must show valid government ID at the door. No children or teens are allowed in the club. If you’re celebrating a 21st birthday, remember to sign up for the birthday promotion in advance (it can score you a free bottle and entry for a group (www.vegas24seven.com )).
Arrival Time: We All Scream typically opens around 10:00–10:30pm (especially on weekends). For big events or opening-night parties, lines can form, so arrive early – typically by 10pm. Cover gives you in-and-out privileges for the night, but double-check if special acts allow re-entry. Since the club can fill up, early arrival is safest if you have a general-admission ticket or guest-list spot.
Dress and Gear: The dress code is casual but look presentable (“Vegas nightlife” attire). Avoid athletic wear, sandals or hats if you can; the club leans toward trendy club attire. Hats, hoods, large backpacks or suitcases may be restricted. You’ll go through security, so bring only what you need. Photography is welcome on your phone (spot nice photo ops everywhere), but professional cameras/tripods are typically not allowed without permission. Flash is generally fine if it doesn’t bother others. Tip: wear comfortable shoes since you’ll be on your feet dancing.
Accessibility: The ground floor is level with the street entrance and has an ADA-accessible restroom. The rooftop and patio are via stairs, so they may be difficult for mobility-impaired guests. If you need accommodation, contact the club ahead of time. Keep in mind it’s a very busy, packed club environment.
What to Bring: Bring physical or digital ID, and a credit card or cash for drinks. There’s no coat-check fee mentioned (but check at the door if needed). Small bags are allowed but will be searched. Smoking is only allowed outside on the patio. Typical nightclub rules apply: no outside food or drink, no weapons, and no glass containers from outside.
Nearby Transit: If you’re taking the bus or monorail, get off at the Fremont Street area and walk east to 5th Street. The SDX (Silver Line) and bus routes 108/211/214 stop near downtown. Taxis and rideshares can drop off right on Fremont near the club (Fremont Street is a limited-access pedestrian zone, so often the drop-off is one block away on Carson Avenue or a side street).
Atmosphere: Inside is loud (bring earplugs if you’re sensitive) and very busy on Fri/Sat. People are friendly and dance-ready. Staff are known to be helpful and the bartenders mix strong drinks (the venue’s signature “AMF” cocktail gets good reviews (concerts50.com )). Last call usually happens around 3:30–4:00am; plan your ride or exit strategy accordingly. Trust your instincts in a crowd and look out for friends. Finally, take breaks: the patio and rooftop offer fresh air if the main floor starts feeling crowded. Overall, a bit of planning (arriving early, dressing comfortably, and having ID ready) will ensure you enjoy this uniquely sweet spin on Vegas nightlife.

Is We All Scream wheelchair accessible?

The venue has gender-neutral restrooms on the main floor, but guests with mobility concerns should plan to stay on the ground level.
Can I bring my own camera or take photos inside?
Small personal cameras and phone cameras are generally fine. In fact, the venue’s colorful ice-cream-and-murals décor is very photogenic. However, professional photography (large DSLRs, flash photography, merchanid etc) may be restricted by club policy, so it’s best to check with staff before using heavy gear. Most guests share photos on social media from their phones without issue.
What makes We All Scream different from other clubs in Las Vegas?
Its concept. We All Scream is the first nightclub in Vegas to fully integrate an ice cream shop and art gallery into a nightclub setting. You can literally dance next to a working ice cream parlor (vegas.eater.com ) (www.sorrynotsorrycreamery.com ). Plus, it’s a not-for-profit creamery funding local art projects (www.vegassidekick.com ). The playful design details (ice-cream-cone DJ booths, ceiling sprinkles) and emphasis on vibrant murals make it feel more creative and indie than a typical disco. This fusion of dessert shop, art space and dance club makes it a truly unique Vegas experience (vegas.eater.com ) (www.mapquest.com ).
