Hugh Hefner is about to turn 83 years old and he’s gearing up for a day of birthday parties that would make men half his age jealous.

The resilient Playboy mogul will celebrate in advance of his big day with a pair of parties at the Palms this Saturday. His actual birthday falls a week from now, on April 9.

The birthday boy’s day will start at 2 p.m. with a pool party at Palms Place. His trio of current lady friends, Crystal Harris, 22, and 19-year-old twin sisters Karissa and Kristina Shannon will be there, as will former live-in flames Kendra Wilkinson, Bridget Marquardt and Holly Madison.

While the names of those lucky enough to be invited to the exclusive poolside party have not been released, but Palms owner George Maloof is among those expected to attend. Not expected to make an appearance is Criss Angel, Vegas local and Madison’s recent ex.

After some fun in the sun, Hef will take his partying public later that night, with two celebrations in the resort’s Fantasty Tower, at Moon and Playboy nightclubs. Those parties are open to the public, though standard cover charges apply.
