Step by Step
How the Pool Party Guest List Works
01
Sign Up Online
Submit the form above. You'll need your name, phone number, the date you plan to visit, your group size, and which pool party you want to attend. The form takes under a minute to complete and there is no credit card required — the guest list is completely free.
02
Get Text Confirmation
Within minutes you'll receive an SMS confirming your guest list spot. Save this text — you may be asked to show it at the guest list window. The day before your visit you'll receive a reminder with the venue's address, parking details, and the cutoff time for your specific dayclub.
03
Arrive Before the Cutoff
Women on the guest list can arrive any time during the session. Men must arrive before the venue's cutoff time — this varies from 11 AM to 1 PM depending on the venue. Arriving 15–20 minutes before the cutoff gives you a buffer. Early arrival also means first access to the best general admission positions near the pool and stage.
04
Show ID at the Guest List Window
Every major Las Vegas dayclub has a dedicated guest list check-in line separate from the general admission queue. Show your government-issued ID and tell them you're on the NoCoverVegas guest list. The check-in window moves faster than the GA line — typically under 10 minutes even on busy Saturdays. Once inside, you have access to the full pool deck and all public bar areas. Cabanas and daybeds require separate reservations.
What the guest list covers:General admission entry — the cover charge is waived entirely. You have access to the full pool deck, all public bar areas, and the main stage viewing area. Cabanas, daybeds, lily pads, and bungalows are VIP reservations sold separately through the venue's bottle service team. The guest list does not include drinks. For groups who want reserved seating and table service, see our pool party bottle service guide for venue-by-venue minimum spends.

Special Occasions
Guest List for Bachelorette, Birthday & Group Visits
Las Vegas dayclubs actively cater to celebrations — the guest list process works differently depending on your occasion and group size.
Bachelorette Pool Parties
Bachelorette groups are among the most welcomed guests at Las Vegas dayclubs, and the guest list process reflects this. When you sign up through NoCoverVegas, note in the form that you're celebrating a bachelorette party — this flags your group for the venue concierge team, who may reach out with daybed or bungalow package options specifically suited to your group size.
Marquee Dayclub at The Cosmopolitan has the most structured bachelorette group packages on the Strip — reserved daybed sections on the main pool deck, dedicated service staff, and the upper bungalow tier for Strip-view photos. These start around $2,000 for groups of 8+. The EBC bachelorette experience at the Wynn centers on the lily pad sections — the most photographed bachelorette spots in Las Vegas. Most venues will comp the bride-to-be's entry on the guest list.
OMNIA Dayclub opened in May 2026 and is the top new bachelorette venue — the Mediterranean beach club design, plunge pool cabanas, and year-round Skybar make it the most visually impressive option for groups who want photos that stand out from the typical Vegas pool party aesthetic. The Ayu Dayclub wading ledge at Resorts World is the best group photo opportunity in a tropical setting. See our full bachelorette pool party guide for venue comparisons and package pricing.
Birthday Pool Parties
Mentioning your birthday in the guest list signup typically triggers: complimentary entry for the birthday person, in-venue DJ announcements at larger dayclubs, birthday shots or champagne depending on bottle service status, and priority consideration for daybed upgrades when availability permits.
For birthday groups that want genuinely memorable venue moments, EBC's lily pad sections put your group at the center of a 3,000-person pool during the headliner set — no equivalent spot exists at any other dayclub. Tao Beach's birthday packages include the koi pond arrival experience and the Main Stage cabana row directly facing the DJ booth. For venue-by-venue birthday packages, see our birthday pool party guide.
Groups of 10 or More
Standard guest lists are designed for groups of 2 to 10. Groups of 10 or more should note their size in the form — the venue's group coordinator will contact you directly about package options. Sign up at least 5 days in advance for groups of 10+.
The venues with the best physical infrastructure for large groups are: EBC's lily pad sections (10–12 per platform), Ayu's Mezzanine bungalows (6–12 per bungalow with private climate control), Tailgate Beach Club's cabanas (gaming consoles and beer pong included), and OMNIA Dayclub's plunge pool cabanas (private water access adjacent to main pools). See our groups guide for minimum spend details and booking contacts.
EDC Week Guest List (May 13–17, 2026)
EDC Week is the highest-demand pool party week in Las Vegas, and guest list slots fill faster than any other period of the year. OMNIA Dayclub's opening EDC Weekend (Fisher May 15, Rüfüs du Sol May 16, Martin Garrix May 17) is projected to sell out every capacity tier. EBC, Ayu, and Palm Tree (Above & Beyond, Zedd, Alesso, Chris Lake across 4 days) all run limited guest lists during EDC Week. Book 5 to 7 days ahead for any EDC Week date. See the full EDC Week pool party guide for venue-by-venue EDC lineups.
What You Get
Free Guest List vs. Paid Entry: What's the Difference?
The pool party guest list grants general admission entry at no cost— the cover charge is entirely waived for women all day and for men before the venue's cutoff time. Once inside, you have the same access as every other GA guest: the full pool deck, all public bar areas, and the main stage viewing area. The guest list does not include drinks, food, or reserved seating.
When you still need to pay:On sold-out headliner days — think Calvin Harris at EBC or the opening weekend at OMNIA Dayclub— the venue may suspend the free guest list and require ticket purchase for general admission. NoCoverVegas will send you a notification if this happens before your requested date. In that case, you can either purchase a GA ticket through the venue directly or opt for bottle service, which always includes entry.
Guest list vs. bottle service:The guest list gets you in for free but gives you no reserved space — you're in the general pool deck crowd. Bottle service (cabanas, daybeds, lily pads, bungalows) includes entry and gives your group a dedicated outdoor room with table service. For bachelorette parties, birthday groups, and anyone who wants guaranteed shade and seating, bottle service is worth considering alongside the guest list for entry savings. See our bottle service guide for pricing by venue.
Guest list vs. tickets: Some premium events at EBC, Palm Tree Beach Club, and OMNIA Dayclub operate on advance ticket purchase rather than a walk-up guest list — typically when a superstar headliner guarantees a sellout. For those events, buying a ticket in advance is the only guarantee of entry at any price. Check the 2026 pool party calendar to see which dates are guest-list eligible and which require advance tickets.
Insider Tips
Pool Party Guest List Tips for 2026
Arrive at opening for EBC on major headliner Saturdays
Encore Beach Club's guest list queue fills fastest of any venue on the Strip. For Calvin Harris, Gryffin, or Diplo Saturdays, doors open at 11 AM — the guest list window can cut off before noon if the venue reaches capacity early. Arrive at 10:50 AM.
Women: no rush, but earlier is still better
Women are on the free guest list all day with no cutoff at any venue. But arriving before noon on Saturdays still gets you the best position on the pool deck before the premium GA spots fill. Once the venue hits capacity, entry pauses for everyone including women on the guest list.
Dress code compliance is enforced at the door
The guest list does not override the dress code. Proper swimwear is required at every Las Vegas dayclub — no denim, athletic wear, or sports jerseys. EBC and OMNIA Dayclub are the strictest. At OMNIA, cargo shorts, chains, and hard-soled shoes are specifically prohibited even for guests on the list.
Sign up for the right date and venue
Guest list requests are venue- and date-specific. You cannot sign up generically for a weekend — you need to pick the exact venue and date. If your plans change after signing up, contact NoCoverVegas as early as possible to update your reservation.
Friday is the easiest guest list day
Saturday has the most demand and the highest chance of early cutoff. Friday guest lists at EBC, Marquee, and OMNIA are more reliably honored through noon. Friday features strong DJ programming with 20-30% lower crowd density than Saturday.
Book early for holiday weekends
Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day guest lists fill 5–10 days out. EDC Week fills within 72 hours of opening for OMNIA and EBC. Standard weekends can be booked 24–48 hours ahead without issue.
Pool Party Guest List FAQs
Is the Las Vegas pool party guest list really free?
Yes — completely free, no credit card required. The guest list grants complimentary general admission entry. Women get free entry all day. Men get free entry before the venue's cutoff time (11 AM to 1 PM depending on the venue). You save the full cover charge, which ranges from $25 to $100 per person at major dayclubs. The only thing you pay for once inside is drinks and any VIP reservations.
How many people can be on the pool party guest list?
Standard guest lists accommodate groups of 2 to 10 people. Groups larger than 10 should note their size in the form — the venue's group coordinator will contact you directly about group package options for larger parties. For bachelorette and birthday groups of 8 to 15 people, mentioning the occasion triggers a concierge outreach about daybed and bungalow packages. Sign up at least 48 hours in advance for groups larger than 6.
What are the cutoff times for each pool party?
Women are free all day at every venue with no cutoff. Men's cutoff times: EBC (11 AM–12:30 PM), Marquee (1 PM), OMNIA Dayclub (noon), Palm Tree (noon), Tao Beach (12:30 PM), Ayu (noon), Liquid Pool (1 PM), LIV Beach (noon). Always arrive at least 15 minutes before your venue's cutoff time.
Does the guest list work for EDC Week?
Yes, but EDC Week (May 13–17, 2026) guest lists fill significantly faster than regular weekends. OMNIA Dayclub's opening EDC weekend is the highest-demand pool party block of the year — book 5 to 7 days ahead. EBC, Marquee, and Palm Tree Beach Club (EDC Week lineup: Above & Beyond, Zedd, Alesso, Chris Lake) also have limited guest lists during EDC. Some EDC Week headliner events require ticket purchase rather than guest list; NoCoverVegas will notify you if your requested date is not guest-list eligible.
What is the best Saturday pool party in Las Vegas?
Saturday is the peak day at every major Las Vegas dayclub. The top three Saturday picks are: EBC on a Calvin Harris or Gryffin Saturday — the biggest production of any pool party in the world; OMNIA Dayclub on a Tiësto or Alesso Saturday — the newest and most technically advanced venue on the Strip; and Palm Tree Beach Club on a Kygo or Fisher Saturday — the most cohesive DJ-to-venue identity of any Las Vegas dayclub. All three require early guest list signup.
What is the best pool party for a bachelorette group?
Marquee Dayclub at The Cosmopolitan is the top bachelorette pick — group packages with reserved daybed sections and Strip-view bungalows start around $2,000 for groups of 8+. EBC at the Wynn has the biggest DJ energy. The newly opened OMNIA Dayclub is the most impressive new venue for 2026. Most venues comp the bride's entry on the guest list. See the full bachelorette pool party guide.
