Rail bike tours

Why take the train when you can be the train? For $90, you and up to three others can ride a pedal bike along a track of railroad from the Nevada State Railroad Museum, 601 Yucca St. in Boulder City. The tour, about 8 miles and 90 minutes, is a leisurely ride with a guide. Now through Aug. 30, tours take off at 6 and 8 p.m., Thursdays through Mondays. Reservations are strongly encouraged; boulderrailroadmuseum.org/rail-bike-tours. Bring a snack for the picnic area at Railroad Pass.

friday

National Donut Day

From noon to 5 p.m. Friday, National Donut Day, Yo! Mochi in the Palms is offering buy-one, get-one-free mochi doughnuts in the shop’s signature bubble-ring shape. Look for flavors like glazed, churro, cookies and cream, crème brûlée, Fruity Pebbles, sprinkles and more.

Prowl celebration

From 5 to 10 p.m. Wednesday, Prowl Cocktail Hideaway, 1323 Commerce St., is presenting a first anniversary celebration featuring a Predator vs. Prey anniversary cocktail, free Naked and Afraid cocktail during the first hour courtesy of Bega Mezcal, free chips and salsa pairing with purchase of a Patron 100 margarita, a free For a Good Time pin with purchase of corresponding cocktail, and a guest book and postcard station. Tickets not required.

Natalia Lafourcade

Recorded live to tape with 18 musicians, “Cancionera” — the 11th studio album from Mexican titan of song Natalia Lafourcade — resonates with an organic pulse as lived-in as the emotions mined on this beatific, heart-stopping LP, which deservedly took home the 2026 Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album. See her at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Reynolds Hall at The Smith Center. Tickets start at $46; thesmithcenter.com.

thursday

The Kid Laroi

“What happens to the things that we planned?” The Kid Laroi wonders over a murky beat and sped-up soul sample on the opening cut of his latest album, “Before I Forget,” in which his heart is a piñata continually whacked at by former lover/fellow pop star Tate McRae — at least according to the Australian singer/rapper. It’s a breakup album of epic proportions — literally, the deluxe version of “Forget” spans 24 cuts — a dam burst of emotion drenching all in its path. See him at 8 p.m. Thursday at the BleauLive Theater at the Fontainebleau Las Vegas. Tickets start at $76; ticketmaster.com.

World Cup

Kick off the World Cup with celebrations at Circa and the new Tailgate Beach Club. Each match of the tournament will be shown at Stadium Swim and the sportsbook, with promotions, activations and soccer-inspired photo opportunities running throughout the tournament. The Tailgate Beach Club World Soccer Viewing Party, meanwhile, will offer immersive pregame and in-game viewing experiences, soccer activations and themed programming around marquee Mexico, USA and Brazil matches, Thursday through June 13, at the Mandalay Bay venue.

Gaetano’s anniversary dinner

Eastern Ave., Suite 111, Henderson, is celebrating its 24th anniversary with a five-course dinner featuring pours from Daou Vineyards of Paso Robles, California.
