The Nightclub & Bar Media Group have just released the annual Nightclub & Bar Top 100 List – a listing that ranks the top clubs in the US on a strictly revenue-based metric. The numbers here are staggering, with a combined total of $1.36 billion dollars represented on the charts in 2014. For the third year in a row XS tops the list, bringing in $105 MM followed by the MGM Grand’s Hakkasan with $103 MM in close second. Miami staples LIV and Story fall in the top ten as well, along with LAVO’s New York outpost — but it’s plain to see that the real money is in Las Vegas.

The record-breaking revenue numbers fall in line with some recent record-breaking booking fees. It’s a positive sign for the health and longevity of this booming industry – namely in Vegas – where 10 of the top US clubs call home.
