NBA All-Star Weekend Club Events For February 17

The parties are in full swing for the NBA All-Star game by Saturday, February 17. Here’s a quick rundown of the notable club events around Vegas:

• Body English @ Hard Rock Hotel presents Paris Hilton’s birthday celebration with a “special surprise performance.”
• Jet @ The Mirage presents hip hop pioneer DJ Grandmaster Flash spinning the decks all night. Admission is $70.
• Pure @ Caesars Palace presents a red-carpet arrival party hosted by celeb couple Eva Longoria (“Desperate Housewives”) and Tony Parker (San Antonio Spurs).
• Rumjungle @ Mandalay Bay presents an All-Star party with Shaquille O’Neal and San Diego Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson (the 2006 MVP).
• Studio 54 @ MGM Grand presents Magic Johnson’s Player’s Party, hosted by Allen Iverson. DJ Kid Capri and Biz Markie are also scheduled. Admission is $100 or go VIP for $220.
• Tabu @ MGM Grand presents a performance by Asian rock guitarist Miyavi.

**Where possible, I tried to note any cover charges/ticketed admissions that were priced more than the normal cover charge for that club.
