The Full Picture

Detailed Experience Comparison

EBC at Night is the nighttime transformation of Encore Beach Club, Wynn Las Vegas's world-famous outdoor pool venue — a 3,500-person open-air nightclub under the desert sky where the pool itself becomes the dance floor backdrop. Operating on select Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday nights from 10:30 PM through 4 AM, EBC at Night replaces the daytime pool scene with a full concert production: the same outdoor stage and pool deck activated at night with world-class DJs, laser shows, and the full Wynn production treatment. The venue features 26 furnished cabanas with flat-screen TVs and Strip-view balconies, multiple levels of VIP daybeds, and a layout that lets you move between poolside dancing and elevated viewing areas. The 2026 Wynn Nightlife roster (shared with XS Nightclub) brings Calvin Harris, Kaskade, deadmau5, Subtronics, Odd Mob, and Hugel to the EBC at Night stage throughout the season.
