Which pool party?

[nikki]

I'm really confused which pool party to do in September. I know it's ages away yet but I like planning. lol

We're staying in MGM and Mirage so I don't know if wet or bare are any good or if we should try another one.

We will probably only have time to do one so I want it to be a good one!

Can anyone make any suggestions please?

Hey nikki,

Well, it depends on what day of the week you want to go.

I'll copy some infos from other threads and the JC website here:

Thurs: Tao Beach, Liquid
Fri: Daylight, Wet Republic, Encore Beach Club, Tao Beach, Marquee Dayclub, Ditch Friday
Sat: Daylight, Wet Republic, Encore Beach Club, Marquee Dayclub
Sun: Daylight, Encore Beach Club, Wet Republic, Rehab, Marquee Dayclub, Tao Beach
Mon: Bare

***

Friday and Saturday: All pool parties are solid options on Fridays and Saturdays, so you should narrow them down using our guides based on what type of party best fits what you are looking for in terms of being the busiest, a megaclub, an intimate party, topless, or more relaxed.

Sunday: Wet Republic, Encore Beach Club, and Rehab.

Monday: Bare Pool (Topless), Hard Rock’s Relax

Tuesday: Not a great day for any pool party.

Wednesday Night: Daylight has a great nighttime pool party, Eclipse.

Thursday: Tao Beach, Liquid, Wet Republic.

***

Bare Pool: Located at Mirage, Bare Pool is an intimately sized topless pool that is best for drinks, lounging pool side, enjoying the music, seeing and being seen, and for casually enjoying the pool. Many enjoy Bare because it has all of the same major elements of a pool party, but within a much smaller and less hectic setting.

Daylight: Newly opened in 2013 at Mandalay Bay, Daylight harnesses the latest trend in Las Vegas daylife / nightlife by centering the party around their all star lineup of internationally known residents.

Ditch Fridays: As the name suggests, Ditch Fridays happen every Friday at the Palm’s Pool, and are a great destination for those looking for the mega-pool party, but who want to get in the water, splash around, and hang out. Compared to other Las Vegas pool parties, Ditch Fridays at the Palms caters more to a wider variety of poolgoers and is generally a less pretentious setting.

Encore Beach Club: Encore Beach Club is one of the newest and most luxurious megapool parties on the Las Vegas Strip, and is a frequent home to the world’s most popular DJs and headlining entertainers. If you are looking for one of the biggest and busiest, EBC is an excellent choice. Check out Encore Beach Club on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Cover starts at $30, but can vary depending on the scheduled event.

Liquid: Located at Aria, Liquid is the perfect blend of an intimate-sized venue that still packs a solid pool party punch. You can lounge around and work on your tan if you choose, but you can just as easily splash around, get sprayed with champagne, or dance around by the DJ booth.

Rehab: Now in their 7th season, Rehab is considered by most as the pool party that set the stage for all future Las Vegas Pool Parties. Rehab occurs on Sundays from April to September, and is best for those looking for a pool party resembling Spring Break in Cancun. Think sand, lots of trees, plenty of booze, and more college-aged poolgoers than at the other venues.

Tao Beach: From the geniuses behind Tao and Marquee nightclubs, Tao Beach is another excellent option for those looking to enjoy a smaller, but still high-energy, pool party atmosphere. You can expect to see just as many people partying as you see relaxing under the sun, which makes Tao Beach an excellent choice for those looking for both or something in between.

Wet Republic:*Featuring multiple pools – including many that are salt water, Wet Republic is one of the most popular Megapools on The Strip and is a frequent home to internationally-renowned DJs, celebrities, and sexy locals.

As for me, I'm going in May with a group of guys. We're going to try EBC and Liquid as well as Eclipse (they haven't announced their dates yet).

Hope this helps!

Thanks, I read a lot of that on the main site, I was looking for peoples recommendations as I'm like a kid in a candy shop.

[jp883]

I see. What are your dates?
People will be able to give you better recommendations if they know what days of the week you're gonna be in Vegas.

We're there from September 16-23. I was thinking of doing a pool party on maybe the 19th which is the Friday that's not set in stone though.

If you do one pool party, and one only... Go to Encore Beach Club on Sunday while you're there. EBC owns Sundays, and really, is the best party.

Second choice would be Saturday at Marquee Day Club or Daylight.

If you go Friday, you're missing out on the two better pool party days (Saturday/Sunday). Or, go Liquid on Friday, and still go to MDC on Saturday and EBC on Sunday
