Venue Info
What to Know About Ayu Dayclub
Ayu Dayclub at Resorts World Las Vegas is a Southeast Asian-inspired luxury pool venue spanning 41,000 square feet across two levels — thatched-roof bungalows, natural stone waterfalls, and a six-foot wading ledge create a social experience unlike any other Vegas dayclub. Opened in 2021 as the centerpiece of Resorts World's entertainment complex, Ayu connects directly to Zouk Nightclub via an indoor corridor, making it the most seamless day-to-night venue on the Strip: arrive at noon and stay in the same entertainment corridor through the nightclub set ending at 4 AM. The 2026 programming calendar is anchored by Zouk Group residents Alison Wonderland, Duke Dumont, Mathame, MEDUZA, Wax Motif, and Ian Asher alongside curated bookings across the BASSRUSH, Interstellar, and AYU AFTERS event series — EDC Week bookings included Alison Wonderland (May 14), Noizu & Bolo (May 15), and Mathame w/ Cristoph (May 16). From Memorial Day through Labor Day, AYU AFTERS runs every Saturday with rotating resident DJs — confirmed June Saturdays: June 6, 13, 20, 27 (SAN PACHO confirmed June 27); confirmed July Saturdays: July 4, 11, 18, 25; confirmed August Saturdays: Aug 1, 8, 15, 22, 29. KROMI holds a day party appearance May 30. MDW 2026 (May 22–25): Zillamatic confirmed for Saturday May 23 (Memorial Day Weekend pool party at AYU); additional headliners TBC — check rwlasvegas.com for full weekend lineup. At 2,800 capacity across two levels, Ayu occupies a mid-tier scale between boutique dayclubs and the mega-venues, creating a crowd density that feels energetic without becoming unmanageable. For groups staying at Resorts World, Fontainebleau, or downtown hotels, the north Strip location reduces rideshare costs significantly compared to center-Strip dayclubs.
