Dress Code Matters

Coming straight from the convention floor? Most nightclubs enforce an upscale dress code. Men should swap sneakers for dress shoes and lose the lanyard. Business casual from your convention day usually works, but avoid athletic wear and hats.

Plan for Surge Pricing

Thursday & Friday Are Peak Nights

Most IMEX America attendees hit the clubs on Thursday and Friday nights. If you want a more relaxed experience, try an early weeknight or a daytime pool party. Pool parties run Friday–Sunday during the March through October season.
