Week of November 19

Whether you’re a local or tourist, we always feature our favorite spots along with all the new and exciting things our city has to offer.

Three stories anchor this issue—and together they tell one truth about who we are and how we win. Billy Gilman’s return to Las Vegas for AFAN’s Blue Christmas is a reminder that art can be both joy and medicine. On Sunday, November 30, Billy steps onto the House of Blues stage with big-band sparkle and a bigger heart, offering the kind of holiday show that lets people laugh, cry, and feel seen. He talks openly about grief, chosen family, and why this season resonates so deeply—and he points that voice toward purpose: raising funds and visibility for people living with HIV. That’s not just entertainment; that’s community care with a spotlight.
