Every January, the world’s biggest tech show takes over Las Vegas—and so do the parties. CES 2026 will draw more than 165,000 people to the Strip, filling every ballroom, rooftop, and lounge with after-hours events that rival the show itself. From industry receptions and media mixers to exclusive invite-only parties, CES week is when business deals meet bottle service and networking lasts long past the expo floor.

The NetworkinVegas.com annual list of the hottest CES parties, after-hours events, meetups, receptions, and networking spots for CES 2026 in Las Vegas. The original and only real CES party list — others are just copycats.

CES 2026 Party List: After Parties, Receptions, Meetups & Invite-Only Events
