FISHER Honored With Official Day in Las Vegas

Australian DJ and producer FISHER just scored one of the most surreal honors of his career: his own official day in Las Vegas.

March 29 is now officially recognized as “Day of the Fish” in Las Vegas, following a city proclamation that was rolled out as FISHER played a headline set at the city’s premiere party hotspot, TAO Beach. The Aussie tech-house star signed the proclamation before taking to the decks to celebrate with fans.

“NO FKN WAY!!! THEY NAMED A DAY AFTER ME IN LAS VEGAS! MARCH 29th IS OFFICIALLY ‘DAY OF THE FISH’!! THANK YOU LEGENDS @taobeach,” he wrote on Instagram on March 31.

The proclamation reads: “We welcome [FISHER] to Las Vegas and thank him for bringing his energy and music to our fabulous city.”

This isn’t the first time FISHER has made waves in Sin City. His 2018 breakout track “Losing It” has become a dance music anthem, dominating festival stages and club sets around the globe. The track hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart and earned him a Grammy nomination for Best Dance Recording, solidifying his status as one of the genre’s most in-demand names.

“Losing It” marked a turning point in dance music, helping usher in a broader appetite for tech-house while launching FISHER from Holy Ship! fan favorite to Coachella and Tomorrowland mainstay. He’s since performed back-to-back sets with longtime collaborator Chris Lake, become a fixture on the Ibiza club circuit, and launched his own label Catch & Release.

FISHER’s honor in Las Vegas arrives just weeks ahead of the return of his homegrown festival, Out 2 Lunch. Taking place May 3–4 on the sands of Surfers Paradise, the two-day event sees him doubling as both host and headliner. The 2024 edition will welcome an impressive lineup of global names including Chris Lake, Patrick Topping, DJ Boring, Noizu, Hayden James, Little Fritter and Shimmy.

The festival follows the record-breaking success of last year’s edition, which drew 30,000 punters to Coolangatta Beach and generated an estimated $50 million for the local economy.
