Top 10 things to do in Las Vegas this week
Here are Neon’s top picks for things to do in Las Vegas from Friday, March 13, through Thursday, March 19.
friday
Feel Good Friday
Lee Canyon’s annual event is back for its 10th year, raising money for the High Fives Foundation, a nonprofit that promotes adaptive sports programs to support athletes who have suffered life-changing injuries. Friday’s event will celebrate adaptive sports as the Winter Paralympics are taking place in Cortina, Italy. Join adaptive athletes Shelby Estocado and Ryan Chen for some shredding and fun, all while supporting a good cause. Visit leecanyonlv.com.
Guerrilla Pizza grand opening
Guerrilla Pizza, 900 Las Vegas Blvd. South, No. 120, will celebrate its grand opening Friday with Detroit-style pizza, and a ribbon-cutting at 5 p.m. with Mayor Shelley Berkley and Councilwoman Olivia Diaz. Guests can expect free ice cream, a live DJ and special giveaways for pizza, gift cards, merch and more.
Peso Pluma
Synthesizing horn-fired traditional corridos with hard-eyed trap, Peso Pluma has reinvigorated regional Mexican music en route to becoming the most-streamed Mexican artist of all time — this, by the age of 26. Pluma’s latest album, “Dinastía,” again pairs him with cousin Tito Double P. They’ll bring that collaboration to the stage at 8 p.m. Friday at T-Mobile Arena. Tickets start at $75; axs.com.
Springfest
The inaugural Springfest at the Magical Forest offers roaming entertainment, scavenger hunts and arts and crafts stations. As part of the 10-day celebration beginning Friday at 6300 W. Oakey Blvd., all-ages events scheduled for 3 to 9 p.m. will have free admission and $5 ride wristbands. Evening events for guests 21 and over will have live entertainment and tickets starting at $25. Proceeds benefit Opportunity Village; ovspringfest.org.
saturday
303 in the Cut pop-up
303 in the Cut, the viral Las Vegas food truck with two locations open daily, will set up shop for one day at the Grid Iron Grill next to the sportsbook in Red Rock Resort. From noon to 7 p.m. Saturday, 303 will serve signature go-big dishes such as Philly cheesesteaks, green chile chicken burritos and Dirty Dogs. Visit 303inthecut.com.
sunday
Pennzoil 400
During last year’s Pennzoil 400, Josh Berry passed Daniel Suarez after a late restart en route to his first NASCAR Cup Series race victory. He’ll look to defend that title at 1 p.m. Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Tickets start at $66.40; ticketmaster.com.
wednesday
Marissa Nadler
Marissa Nadler’s poltergeist-of-a-voice is like a ghost that you look forward to being haunting by, her delicately delivered soprano floating above finger-picked acoustic guitar on songs that range from lullabies to laments. See her at 8 p.m. Wednesday at The Usual Place, 100 S. Maryland Parkway. Tickets are $28; dice.fm.
thursday
Nevada Women’s Film Festival
The Nevada Women’s Film Festival is back for its 12th installment, with a lineup of 72 movies from 15 countries.

Sacred Skin
It’ll be a new venue paired with a vintage sound when L.A.’s dark-hued, ’80-inspired synthpop troupe Sacred Skin christens the stage at Bizarre Bar, 1301 S. Main St., which occupies the former home of Swan Dive. Check out the club’s first show at 8 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $22; events.ticketleap.com.
