Highlights of this nightlife mecca:

Bowling, live music, nightlife and gourmet dining fuse together at The LINQ Promenade's hottest nighttime destination, Brooklyn Bowl, an offshoot of its popular New York location, which was dubbed as "one of the most incredible places on earth" by Rolling Stone magazine. The LINQ Promenade's 80,000-square-foot Brooklyn Bowl features 32 bowling lanes and a gigantic music venue, plus the famed Blue Ribbon restaurant featuring popular American comfort food. Items include everything from wings, pizza and barbecue to vegetarian fare.

The Brooklyn Bowl back story:

The original Brooklyn Bowl opened in 2009 in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighborhood. The building actually used to be an ironworks-foundry building in the late 1800s. Brooklyn Bowl stands out for its eco-friendly practices and even the concert stage is made out of recycled trunk tires. Brooklyn Bowl also conserves energy by using all LED lights. The Brooklyn-based 600-capacity venue hosts big-name music acts, including The Roots, electronic hip-hop DJ RJ-D2, Biz Markie, Guns N' Roses and Elvis Costello, to name a few. With the Vegas location more than tripling the size of the original, including a 2,400-capacity showroom, you can only imagine how awesome the concert headliners are.

Expert Tips:

• Take your bowling experience up a notch: VIP seating and bottle service are also available.
• Get some fresh air on the second level's outdoor deck, which overlooks The LINQ Promenade.
