Babes In Toyland: The Party That Keeps On Giving
Babes In Toyland Las Vegas, 2024
If you’ve ever wondered how to make an entrance in Las Vegas, try walking into a casino with two dozen entertainers from Spearmint Rhino Las Vegas.
It’s not hard to imagine why casinos feel nervous about the possibility of entertainers stealing their patrons and towing them back to the club. It would be easy money.
Fortunately for The Park MGM, the mission at hand was to attend the Babes in Toyland Charity Party. This was about spreading holiday cheer, giving back, and indulging in some unforgettable moments at one of the year’s most buzzworthy events. No marriages were harmed during the course of this event.
The party took place at the speakeasy, On the Record. Spinning greats, from 90’s Hip-Hop to the latest tracks from Kendrick Lamar and Cardi B, the music carried the night with a bump that made more than just hands clap. The DJ didn’t disappoint. Neither did the dancers.
Our neighbors in Utah would have marked attendees to the Naughty List for the way things went down, but fortunately, Santa was there too.
With the reindeer left behind and Mrs. Clause overseeing the elves working hard at the North Pole, Santa swapped out his staple milk and cookies for something a bit stronger. Gingerbread Schnapps? I dared not try. Nevertheless, not many toys were made under Santa’s watch this evening. Though plenty of donations made up for any loss at this holiday season pregame.
Babes in Toyland: A Legacy of Giving
Since its inception in 2008, the Babes in Toyland charity event series has turned the concept of posh partying into a powerful philanthropic platform. What started as a single event has evolved into a multi-faceted initiative that includes the original charity, the Pet Edition, Support Our Troops, the Miami White Party, and even the Babes and Ballers Super Bowl event. This year, the event continued its Vegas chapter with the Christmas Toy Drive, combining high-energy fun with heartfelt giving.
Babes in Toyland stands out not just for the glitz and glamour but for its ability to rally over 900 models and influencers for meaningful causes. It’s a celebration where philanthropy takes center stage, backed by an atmosphere that’s equal parts electrifying and generous. Proceeds and donations from the event go toward supporting children and families in need, embodying the true spirit of the season.
Michael Sartain: The Man, the Myth, the Gentleman Host
The evening’s host, Michael Sartain, is no stranger to the spotlight. With a diverse background that includes military service, nightlife management, and social media mastery, Michael brings a unique blend of charisma and purpose to every event he touches. His expertise in high-status networking and his passion for giving back made him the ideal leader for Babes in Toyland.
Michael’s Las Vegas roots and reputation as a local Vegas celebrity added to the night’s allure. Between orchestrating shoutouts and engaging with attendees, he ensured that the mission behind the glitz—supporting children in need—was never overshadowed. As someone who has turned networking into an art form, Michael’s efforts exemplify how impactful connections can fuel philanthropy.

Final Thoughts
This was an expedition that not even Magellan could dream of. The evening began with a Santa bag stuffed full of plush rhino dolls in tow behind 20 ladies from Spearmint Rhino Las Vegas - all dressed to the nines - in the posh MGM Park and ended from the windows to the walls…in a blizzard of dollar bills, glitter, and empty bottles.
Babes in Toyland wasn’t just a lavish event; it was a celebration of generosity, community, and holiday cheer. From Santa’s lively corner to the bumping dancefloor to the extended and VIP afterparty, the night was a reminder of the impact we can have when fun meets philanthropy.
