What it is
Encore Beach Club (EBC) is the Wynn/Encore dayclub that's built a reputation as one of the biggest, most expensive pool parties on the Strip — 60,000 square feet across three pools, running Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. The DJ lineup is A-list EDM: The Chainsmokers, Calvin Harris, Marshmello and Diplo have all played the main stage, and the club is the only dayclub in Vegas with a full covered gaming pavilion, so you can duck in for blackjack or a sports bet without missing the set.
General admission gets your crew in the door; the group experience is really about the table. Beach couches and gaming-section tables start the lineup, then daybeds, L-couches, and lily pads/water couches sitting right in the shallow water, up to cabanas and bungalows with a private daybed, fridge, TV and misting fan. Every table reservation includes a dedicated server, unlimited mixers, and expedited VIP entry — no waiting in the general admission line that can run 30-60 minutes deep on a busy Saturday.
Why it works for the crew
This is the scale play for a bachelor party: A-list DJs, a genuinely massive venue, and a gaming pavilion that lets the group gamble mid-party without losing momentum. A table (cabana or bungalow if the budget allows) turns it into a home base — shade, a fridge for the group's own drinks setup, and elaborate bottle presentations (helicopter and motorcycle deliveries are real options here) if someone in the crew wants to go big for the groom.
It's also a straightforward group-ratio move: guys in an even-ratio group (same number of women as men) often get free entry before noon via the guest list, which can meaningfully cut costs for a mixed pre-party crowd. For an all-guys group, expect to pay full general admission or book a table outright.
Planning tips
When to book: EBC runs Friday-Sunday only, so anchor your trip dates around one of those days. Book tables 3-4 weeks ahead for a weekend slot in season (roughly March-October); Saturdays carry the highest minimums and sell out first.
Budget: General admission for men runs about $40-75, with expedited entry (skip the line) at $75-125 depending on day and DJ. Tables start around $1,000 minimum spend for a beach couch or gaming table on a Friday, up to $2,000+ for a cabana and considerably more for a bungalow — add roughly 40% on top for venue fee, tax and gratuity. Splitting a daybed or gaming table across 8-10 guys, plan on $150-250+ per person all-in.
Dress code: 21+ only, swim attire required — no jeans, athletic gear, jerseys, or basketball shorts. The door enforces this strictly, so don't show up in gym clothes expecting to talk your way in.
