Las Vegas invented the modern dayclub, and the city still does it better than anywhere on earth: 60,000-square-foot party pools, world-famous DJs spinning in the afternoon sun, and cabanas that cost more than a weekend anywhere else. This guide covers the best pool parties and dayclubs in Las Vegas for 2026, grouped by the kind of day you want, with the resort, the vibe, the cover, the season, and the address and phone for each, plus the one thing most pool-party lists skip: how to move your whole group between them without a rental car, a rideshare surge, or a designated driver missing the fun.
- Match the club to your crowd. The scene splits into high-energy EDM mega-pools (Encore Beach Club, Ayu, Palm Tree, Tao Beach), year-round and sports-and-swim pools (Marquee, Stadium Swim, Tailgate), and calmer upscale or off-Strip escapes (Kassi, Liquid, Venus).
- Two venues beat the season. Marquee Dayclub runs year-round under a heated dome, and Stadium Swim at Circa is open 365 days a year, so a Vegas pool day works even in January.
- The scene changed a lot for 2026. Wet Republic is now Palm Tree Beach Club, Elia is now Kassi Beach Club, Daylight has reopened as the sports-themed Tailgate Beach Club, and Drai’s Beachclub closed with the Cromwell rebrand. Old lists are out of date.
- Almost every dayclub is 21-and-over and ticketed, not a standard resort pool. Cover runs from roughly $20 for women at a mid-size pool to well over $100 for men on a marquee DJ weekend, and tables are sold as bottle-service minimums.
- Getting there is the whole logistics game. Everyone is drinking all day at venues scattered across the valley, so a chauffeured vehicle or party bus keeps the group together and the driving off your plate.

Plan your pool day:
How the Las Vegas Dayclub Scene Works
A Las Vegas dayclub is not a hotel pool. It is a nightclub with the roof taken off and the sun turned on: DJ booths, bottle service, cabanas, daybeds, and a 21-and-over crowd that treats a Saturday afternoon like a Saturday night. The format was born here in the late 2000s, when venues like Wet Republic and Tao Beach proved that people would pay nightclub prices to party in the daylight. Today nearly every major resort on the Strip runs one, and they compete on DJ lineups, production, and pool real estate.
The season matters. Most dayclubs open in mid-March and close in late October, and the calendar peaks on summer weekends and holidays when the biggest DJs are booked. Two venues sidestep that entirely: Marquee Dayclub keeps its pool warm under a dome through winter, and Stadium Swim at Circa runs all year. Access is ticketed and tiered: general admission gets you in the door, and a reserved daybed, cabana, or bungalow (sold as a bottle-service minimum) gets you shade, a table, and a base of operations. Below, the venues are grouped by the kind of day you want, with the resort, the vibe, the cover, and the season called out for each so you can match the club to your group.

High-Energy EDM Mega-Dayclubs
This is the Las Vegas dayclub at full volume: festival-scale pools, headline DJ residencies, floating daybeds, and a wall of sound from the moment the gates open. These four are the biggest parties in the city, and they run the standard spring-through-fall weekend calendar. If your group is chasing the marquee DJ and the crowd, start here.
| Dayclub | Hotel | Vibe | Cover | Season |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Encore Beach Club | Wynn / Encore | Mega-club, top DJs | ~$30 women / ~$60 men, up on marquee dates | Fri to Sun, late Mar to Oct |
| Ayu Dayclub | Resorts World | Bali-inspired, high energy | ~$50 to $75 women / ~$75 to $100 men | Fri to Sun, Mar to Sept |
| Palm Tree Beach Club | MGM Grand | New, tropical, Kygo x Tao Group | Varies by event; premium for headliners | Wed to Sun, spring to fall |
| Tao Beach Dayclub | The Venetian | Design-forward, original pioneer | ~$20 to $30 women / ~$30 to $45 men | Thu to Sun, Mar to Sept/Oct |
Encore Beach Club
Encore Beach Club, universally shortened to EBC, set the template for the modern mega-dayclub and still runs the scene. The 60,000-square-foot space is built around a three-tier main pool, with lily-pad daybeds floating on the water, bungalows that come with private plunge pools, and a gaming pavilion off to the side. What separates EBC is the talent: its 2026 DJ residencies read like a festival main stage, with Calvin Harris, Diplo, Gryffin, Mau P, Hugel, and Dillon Francis all holding slots. Select “EBC at Night” events turn the pool into an open-air nightclub after dark.
- Hotel: Wynn and Encore, on the Strip
- Vibe: The biggest, highest-energy EDM party in the city; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission from about $30 for women and $60 for men, higher on marquee DJ and holiday weekends; cabanas and bungalows sold as bottle-service minimums
- Season / Days: Friday through Sunday, late March into October, plus select EBC at Night events
- Address: 3131 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Ayu Dayclub
Ayu Dayclub opened with Resorts World on July 1, 2021, and quickly became one of the Strip’s marquee pools. The 41,000-square-foot venue leans into a Bali-inspired look: tropical trees, carved shade structures, and cabanas arranged around a large central pool, with room for roughly 2,500 guests. The music is EDM, house, and open format, and the room is built to move a big crowd. Because Resorts World anchors the quieter north Strip, it pairs well with a stay up that end of the Boulevard.
- Hotel: Resorts World Las Vegas, north Strip
- Vibe: Bali-inspired, high-energy EDM mega-pool; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission around $50 to $75 for women and $75 to $100 for men; VIP admission roughly $100 to $200; higher for headliner and holiday dates
- Season / Days: Friday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., March through September
- Address: 3000 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Palm Tree Beach Club
The biggest debut of the last two years, Palm Tree Beach Club opened at MGM Grand on May 3, 2025, taking over the space that was Wet Republic for more than a decade. It is a partnership between Norwegian superstar Kygo’s Palm Tree Crew and Tao Group Hospitality, designed by Rockwell Group as a tropical, music-forward oasis. The nearly 60,000-square-foot venue features a ground-level performance stage, a saltwater pool, 12 bungalows, 10 cabanas, and rows of daybeds and chaise lounges. The ground-level stage makes live performances a real feature, not just DJ sets, so the marquee events are Kygo and Palm Tree Crew dates.
- Hotel: MGM Grand, on the Strip
- Vibe: New, tropical, music-forward with a ground-level stage; a Kygo x Tao Group venue; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission varies by event; premium pricing on Kygo and Palm Tree Crew headline dates; cabanas and bungalows bookable
- Season / Days: Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., spring through fall
- Address: 3799 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Tao Beach Dayclub
Tao Beach is one of the venues that started the dayclub era, and it came back better. After a full renovation, it reopened at The Venetian in 2022 as a 47,000-square-foot retreat that blends Asian-inspired design with a modern party atmosphere. Expect lush landscaping, a large central pool, plunge pools, cabanas, and the polished production Tao Group is known for, all a short walk from the heart of the mid-Strip. The central address makes it easy to pair with dinner and a night out afterward.
- Hotel: The Venetian, mid-Strip
- Vibe: Design-forward, Asian-inspired, from an original dayclub pioneer; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission roughly $20 to $30 for women and $30 to $45 for men, up on holiday weekends and special guest dates
- Season / Days: Thursday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., typically March through September, weather permitting into October
- Address: 3355 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Year-Round and Sports-and-Swim Pools
Not every Vegas pool day is about the headline DJ. This group is for the trip that lands outside pool season, or the group that would rather watch the game from the water than shout over a set. Two of these run when every other pool is closed, and two are built around giant screens and live sports.
| Dayclub | Hotel | Vibe | Cover | Season |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Marquee Dayclub | The Cosmopolitan | Rooftop, Strip views, heated dome | ~$20 to $50 women / ~$30 to $75 men | Year-round (winter dome) |
| Stadium Swim | Circa (Downtown) | Sports amphitheater, giant screen | General admission from ~$25 | 365 days a year |
| Tailgate Beach Club | Mandalay Bay | Sports-themed, wall-to-wall LED | General admission free with RSVP | Sports season (Mar Madness to Super Bowl) |
Marquee Dayclub
Marquee Dayclub sits on a rooftop deck above The Cosmopolitan, which gives it something no ground-level pool has: sweeping views straight down the Strip. The multi-level layout stacks pools, bars, and daybeds, and the sound system and DJ bookings carry the same weight as the Marquee nightclub downstairs. Its real trick is the dome: in the colder months a climate-controlled enclosure keeps the main pool warm, so the rooftop dayclub runs effectively year-round while the elevated views make it one of the most photogenic pools in town.
- Hotel: The Cosmopolitan, mid-Strip (rooftop)
- Vibe: Rooftop Strip views, high-energy in summer, heated dome in winter; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission roughly $20 to $50 for women and $30 to $75 for men, up on marquee dates
- Rating: 3.3 out of 5 (Google, 140+ reviews)
- Season / Days: Friday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.; open-air in summer, enclosed dome in winter
- Address: 3708 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Stadium Swim at Circa
Stadium Swim is a different animal from the Strip mega-clubs. Built as a multi-level pool amphitheater at the adults-only Circa in Downtown Las Vegas, it wraps six pools and two spas around a massive high-definition screen, so it functions as much as a sports-viewing venue as a party pool. It holds up to 4,000 guests across cabanas, daybeds, and hundreds of chaise lounges, with swim-up bars and sports-betting kiosks on deck. It is the most reliable year-round pool in the city, and if you are staying at Circa, the D, or Golden Gate, your room key gets you in free.
- Hotel: Circa Resort & Casino, Downtown Las Vegas
- Vibe: Year-round sports-and-swim amphitheater facing a giant screen; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission from about $25, higher on peak days and major sporting events; free with a room key at Circa, the D, or Golden Gate
- Season / Days: Open daily, 365 days a year; roughly 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. in summer and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. in winter
- Address: 8 Fremont St, Las Vegas, NV 89101

Tailgate Beach Club
The newest sports-and-swim concept is at Mandalay Bay, where the long-running Daylight Beach Club reopened in 2026 as Tailgate Beach Club. Operated by Clique Hospitality, it reimagines the space as a live-sports pool party with a wall-to-wall LED screen, five pools, 22 cabanas, and capacity up to 2,000, and it opened its 2026 season on May 16 with a performance by Snoop Dogg. It is a bet that the sports-and-swim formula proven downtown at Stadium Swim can work at a Strip mega-pool.
- Hotel: Mandalay Bay, south Strip
- Vibe: Sports-themed pool party with a wall-to-wall LED screen, five pools; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission free with an RSVP or walk-up; GA tickets, cabanas, bungalows, and group experiences bookable
- Season / Days: Thursday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.; open through sports season (roughly March Madness through Super Bowl Sunday), typically closed mid-February to mid-March
- Address: 3950 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89119

Upscale, Off-Strip, and Adults-Only Escapes
Sometimes the goal is a pool day where you can actually hear each other talk. This group trades the mega-club chaos for real sand, boutique cabanas, and a slower pace, and two of the three sit away from the wall-to-wall Strip crowd. The DJ and the party are still there; the volume just comes down a notch.
| Dayclub | Hotel | Vibe | Cover | Season |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kassi Beach Club | Virgin Hotels | Greek-island beach club, real sand | Usually no cover; varies by DJ | Spring to fall |
| Liquid Pool Lounge | Aria | Boutique, upscale, adults-only | ~$30 to $50 women / ~$40 to $100 men | Wed to Sun, Mar to Oct |
| Venus Pool Club | Caesars Palace | Intimate, adults-only, Greek-inspired | Often no cover; varies by day | Apr to Sept |
Kassi Beach Club
Kassi Beach Club at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas is a Greek-island-inspired escape with real sand, the reimagined venue that replaced the former Elia Beach Club in the same space and shares it with the Kassi Beach House restaurant. Set off-Strip in the Paradise area, it trades mega-club intensity for a more relaxed, resort-holiday feel: whitewashed cabanas, a large pool, and a laid-back party energy that still books strong DJ and event weekends. It is the pick when you want a genuine dayclub scene without the wall-to-wall Strip crowd.
- Hotel: Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, off-Strip (Paradise)
- Vibe: Greek-island beach club with real sand, relaxed and vacation-like; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: Usually no cover; pricing varies by event and DJ; cabanas and daybeds bookable
- Rating: 4.6 out of 5 (OpenTable, 770+ diners at Kassi Beach House)
- Season / Days: Seasonal, spring through fall
- Address: 4455 Paradise Rd, Las Vegas, NV

Liquid Pool Lounge
Liquid Pool Lounge at Aria is the intimate option among the Tao Group pools. It is a boutique adults-only lounge rather than a stadium-scale club, with a European-style feel, eight secluded cabanas and daybeds lining a 1,200-square-foot main pool, and a more manageable crowd. It runs Wednesday through Sunday during pool season, giving you a polished, upscale dayclub experience at a CityCenter resort without the sensory overload of a 4,000-person party. It is a good pick for a quieter weekday pool day.
- Hotel: Aria Resort & Casino, CityCenter
- Vibe: Boutique, upscale, European-style adults-only lounge; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: General admission roughly $30 to $50 for women and $40 to $100 for men, higher for bigger headliners; eight cabanas and daybeds bookable
- Season / Days: Wednesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., March through October
- Address: 3730 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89158

Venus Pool Club
Venus Pool Club is the calm counterpoint on this list. Tucked into the Garden of the Gods pool complex at Caesars Palace, it is a small, Greek-inspired, adults-only enclave with roughly 14 cabanas and a relaxed sunbathing crowd rather than a DJ-driven party. It is centrally located mid-Strip and works well as a lower-key day between bigger nights out. Note one 2026 change: Venus no longer allows European-style sunbathing, so swimsuit tops are required.
- Hotel: Caesars Palace (Garden of the Gods), mid-Strip
- Vibe: Intimate, adults-only, Greek-inspired sunbathing enclave; 21+
- Cover / Tickets: Often no cover with a free guest list; pricing varies by day, event, and headliner; cabanas and daybeds bookable
- Season / Days: Roughly April through September, about 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- Address: 3570 S Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109

Dayclub Size Compared
Square footage is not everything, but it tells you which venues were built to move a festival-sized crowd and which are designed to feel more intimate. Here is how five of the marquee pools compare on footprint.

Every Dayclub on the Map
These pools stretch from the north Strip down to Mandalay Bay and out to Downtown and the airport corridor. The map shows how spread out they are, which is the main thing to plan around if you want to hit more than one in a day.
Getting There Without the Hassle
Here is the part most pool-party lists skip: the logistics are the hard part. The dayclubs are scattered across different resorts, everyone in your group is drinking in the sun for hours, and driving yourself home after a day at the pool is exactly the situation to avoid. Rideshare works until it does not: prices surge hard on summer and holiday weekends, and apps drop you at a resort’s rideshare hub, which can be a long, hot walk from the actual club entrance. For a bachelor or bachelorette group hitting two or three venues, that adds up to a broken-up, stressful day.
Personal Sedan Services runs a licensed, professional, chauffeured fleet built exactly for this. A party bus or an SUV keeps the whole group together from the hotel to the pool, drops you at the door instead of a rideshare lot, and waits on your schedule so nobody is refreshing an app in a wet swimsuit. Your chauffeur knows the real drive times between Wynn, MGM Grand, The Cosmopolitan, and Downtown, so a two-club day actually works. Best of all, there is a sober professional behind the wheel all day, which is the whole point after hours at a pool bar.
Book a Las Vegas party bus for your group
Reserve bachelor & bachelorette transportation
Dayclubs are a favorite stop on any Las Vegas bachelorette weekend itinerary, and they pair naturally with a night out afterward, so many groups book a driver for the whole day and into the evening. They also slot neatly alongside a food day: see our roundups of the best restaurants on the Las Vegas Strip and the best off-Strip restaurants for local favorites. Personal Sedan Services is Las Vegas’s top-rated luxury transportation, with a perfect 5.0 Google rating from more than 900 reviews, so a pool-day booking is in dependable hands from pickup to last call.

How We Built This List
Methodology and sources
Venues were grouped by the kind of pool day they deliver (high-energy EDM, year-round and sports-and-swim, and upscale or off-Strip) rather than force-ranked, with the resort, vibe, cover, season, address, and phone verified for each so you can match a club to your group. Square footage, capacities, opening years, operating seasons, addresses, and phone numbers were verified against each venue’s official site, Las Vegas news coverage, and public listings; DJ residencies, pricing, and event calendars change constantly, so confirm current details directly with the venue before booking. Ratings are shown only where a real published figure exists and are labeled by source. Closed or rebranded venues (Wet Republic, Elia Beach Club, Drai’s Beachclub) are flagged rather than listed because they are no longer bookable under those names.
Primary sources: Wynn Las Vegas, Tao Group Hospitality, Resorts World, Circa Resort & Casino, Tailgate Beach Club, Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, Caesars Palace, and reporting from Las Vegas Weekly and Variety.
