## Encore Beach Club at Night — December 2026 Complete Guide
Encore Beach Club (EBC) at Wynn Las Vegas operates in December 2026 in its EBC at Night outdoor nightclub format — the same outdoor venue as the summer daytime pool party, transformed into a late-night open-air club experience for the holiday season. The summer dayclub season at EBC runs March through October; December programming is exclusively EBC at Night, operating from 10:30 PM on select Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday evenings through the Christmas and New Year's Eve windows.
### December 2026 Context: XS Nightclub Renovation
XS Nightclub at Encore Wynn Las Vegas is closed for an extensive renovation from September 2026 through December 30, 2026, reopening only for New Year's Eve on December 31 with The Chainsmokers headlining the 18th anniversary. During this renovation closure, EBC at Night becomes the primary Wynn Nightlife venue for December — absorbing headliner bookings and audience demand that would typically be split between XS and EBC at Night on the same nights.
This concentration of programming at a single venue makes December 2026 EBC at Night dates more in-demand than typical EBC at Night events during the regular season when XS runs simultaneously.

Confirmed dates sourced from wynnsocial.com event calendar (December 3, 9, and 12 confirmed; additional dates extrapolated from standard EBC at Night programming pattern of Wednesday, Friday, Saturday). Performers announced 4–6 weeks in advance.
### The 2026 EBC Artist Roster
Wynn Nightlife's 2026 EBC lineup includes Calvin Harris, Diplo, Dillon Francis, Mau P, Hugel, Marshmello, The Chainsmokers (NYE at XS only), ODESZA (DJ Set), Gryffin, Subtronics, Two Friends, Acraze, Bob Moses (Club Set), Sofi Tukker, Sullivan King, and more. December EBC at Night headliners will be drawn from this roster, with possible additions of artists not in the regular summer circuit.
### What Is EBC at Night?
EBC at Night is the after-sunset format at Encore Beach Club, operating on the same outdoor pool deck that hosts the summer daytime pool party season. After 10:30 PM, the venue transitions: the pool remains lit and accessible as a nightclub feature, the DJ booth delivers the same production infrastructure, and the crowd shifts to the late-night nightclub audience. The outdoor setting provides an open-air experience that indoor Las Vegas nightclubs cannot match — Strip views, winter night air, and the spatial scale of an outdoor venue operating under open skies.
### Christmas & Holiday Week Programming
**Christmas Week (December 18–26)** Christmas week is one of the highest-demand windows in the Las Vegas nightlife calendar, with hotel occupancy and nightclub attendance reaching levels comparable to Thanksgiving Weekend. EBC at Night programs the Christmas pre-weekend (December 18–19) and the Day After Christmas (December 26) as the key holiday dates. With XS closed during this window, EBC at Night is the only Wynn Nightlife venue available for Christmas week programming — making guest list registration time-sensitive for these dates.
**New Year's Eve — December 31** NYE at EBC at Night is a premium event. The outdoor setting allows guests to experience the countdown under open skies with Strip views — an experience unique to EBC at Night among major Las Vegas New Year's Eve parties. The simultaneous XS Nightclub reopening with The Chainsmokers adds a Wynn campus double-headline dimension.
NYE at EBC at Night has historically been one of the highest-grossing single nights in Las Vegas outdoor nightlife. Tickets and guest list for December 31 release when the headliner is announced — typically October or November. Register early through NoCoverVegas.
