2026 Best of the Badge Gala

Each year, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department honors its officers for distinguishing themselves in the line of duty. These are our dedicated officers who save lives, risk theirs, and make a difference in our community.

On this night, we will share the dramatic and harrowing stories that earned our “Top Cops” a commendation. Sheriff Kevin McMahill will salute the officers who represent the “Best of the Badge.”
