Christmas Beatles Tribute The local scene pays homage to the Fab Four, with Dreaming of Lions, Dude City, The Pandas, Same Sex Mary and more performing their favorite Beatles tunes. Anyone up for “Revolution 9”? December 23, 9 p.m., free, Royal House.

California at UNLV Men's Basketball The 21st-ranked Runnin’ Rebels are 12-2. The almost-ranked Bears are 10-2. Somebody (cough, Cal, cough) gets loss No. 3 in this one, UNLV’s final nonconference home game. December 23, 2 p.m., $18-$80, Thomas & Mack.
LV Wranglers at Midnight Twenty-four-hour living is a hallmark of Las Vegas—all-night restaurants, no last call, perpetual poker. But hockey? The 16-8 Wranglers take on the Stockton Thunder in this late-night game. December 27, 11:59 p.m., $17.50-$38, Orleans Arena.
