North Strip at night
The STRAT anchors the north end of the Strip. As of this year it's three shows in one building: Rouge and Ikons of Rock share the theater; LA Comedy Club runs downstairs.
One building, three shows, two rooms
Rouge and Ikons of Rock share the same ~650-seat STRAT Theater, Tuesday through Sunday, dark Monday: Ikons of Rock earlier in the evening (confirm live), Rouge at its 9:00 PM curtain. LA Comedy Club is a separate room — the ~160-seat Dragon Room on the main casino floor — running three shows a night, seven nights a week, independent of the theater upstairs. The SkyPod and Top of the World sit in the same complex, so a night here can run several stops without leaving the property.
Ticketed show or club: know the difference
This stretch of the Strip mixes ticketed theater with adult nightclubs, and search results blur them constantly. Rouge, Ikons of Rock, and LA Comedy Club are all ticketed theater: seating, a fixed runtime, a printed lineup. A venue like Peppermint Hippo is a club: no set showtime, no seating chart, a different kind of night. If you want a start and end time you can plan dinner around, you want ticketed theater.
Pairing them up
A full STRAT night is realistic: an early or mid-evening LA Comedy Club set, Ikons of Rock once its showtime is confirmed, and Rouge to close at 9:00 PM. Not everyone will want all three. Treat this as a menu, not a mandatory itinerary — one parking garage covers any combination you pick.
