Yes. Every day of the year, holidays included. Nevada has no last call and FLEX has no closing time.
Is there a cover charge?
No. There's no cover at FLEX for anything — the drag show, karaoke, the DJs, Underwear Night. If an event ever costs money, it'll say so on its page.

About two miles east of mid-Strip, five minutes by rideshare. FLEX is on Twain Ave, next door to Fun Hog Ranch and a half-mile west of Dust. Take an Uber or Lyft rather than walking, especially late.

Is there parking at FLEX?
Yes. Two free lots, one out front and one behind the bar, both shared with Fun Hog Ranch. There's no street parking on Twain Ave. If you're drinking, rideshare home.

When is happy hour at FLEX, and how does it work?
Twice a day, every day: 2–8 AM and 2–8 PM. Buy a drink during happy hour and the bartender hands you a card good for a free next round. Use it before the window closes or bring it back for any later happy hour — cards are only redeemable during happy hour.
