Stoney's Rockin' Country

Stoney's Rockin' Country is the city's serious country dance hall — a 2,500-plus-square-foot dance floor, a mechanical bull, a stage, and a patio at Town Square, the open-air mall about two miles south of the Strip, where it's anchored the nightlife corner since 2016. This is where Las Vegas actually line dances, as opposed to where tourists watch it happen.

The week runs Thursday through Sunday: free line-dance lessons at 7:30 and 8:30pm Thursday through Saturday (8pm Sundays), Thursday Ladies Night with $3 wells, wine, and Miller drafts, a live country band on Fridays, and Bikini Bull Riding the first Thursday of each month. Saturdays, military, nurses, teachers, and first responders get in free. Sunday is the early session — 3 to 10pm.

Plan for the geography: Town Square means a car or rideshare, there's nothing walkable about it from the Strip, and Monday through Wednesday the room is dark. The floor also starts slow — lessons at 7:30, but the hall doesn't properly fill until after 9. If country isn't your lane, nothing here will convert you; if it is, this is the one.
