The resort and the setting
Marquee Dayclub is at The Cosmopolitan in the center of the Strip, on a terrace level above the casino next to Marquee Nightclub, with which it shares an entrance area and operator (Tao Group Hospitality). The layout is a pair of pools on a stepped deck, a DJ stage at one end, a run of cabanas along the edge and a set of "grand cabanas" on an upper level with their own infinity plunge pools looking over the Strip. It is more compact than Encore Beach Club or Wet Republic, which makes it feel full quickly but also keeps the party close.
The Cosmopolitan's regular pools, the Boulevard Pool and the Bamboo Pool, are separate and free for hotel guests. A Cosmopolitan room key does not get you into Marquee Dayclub; it is ticketed. See our Cosmopolitan destination guide for the hotel.
Vibe and crowd
Marquee's crowd mirrors the hotel: a little more design-conscious and a touch older on average than Wet Republic, with plenty of couples and mixed groups rather than only bachelor parties. It is lively without being chaotic on weekdays and properly packed on headliner weekends. Because the deck is smaller, general admission feels crowded sooner, and the cabana tiers loom over the pool so there is a strong sense of who paid for what. The Strip and Bellagio views from the upper tier are part of the appeal.
Music and the Marquee Dome
Programming is open-format and EDM-heavy on weekends with hip-hop and house on other days, drawn from the Tao Group roster shared with Marquee Nightclub. Marquee's distinctive feature is the Dome: in the cooler months the dayclub is covered with a heated, transparent structure and continues as a "Marquee Dayclub Dome" party, which makes it one of the few dayclub experiences available in winter and early spring. The Dome dates are announced on the venue site each year; treat it as a bonus rather than a guarantee.
Typical cover, tables and cabanas
As of 2026, and check the official site: general admission is typically $30 to $75-plus for men and $20 to $50 for women, with headliner days at the top. Guest lists exist and are useful on weekdays and early on weekends. Daybeds start around a few hundred dollars midweek and $1,000 to $2,000 minimum on weekends; standard cabanas roughly $2,000 to $4,000-plus; the grand cabanas with private pools considerably more. Add tax, a service charge of roughly 20 percent and gratuity. Marquee tends to price a little under EBC and around Wet Republic for equivalent tiers.
Dress code and age
21 and over with valid government photo ID. Swimwear and resort casual only; no jerseys, baggy shorts, cut-offs or beachwear that looks like streetwear. Sandals or flip-flops are required. Bags are searched at the door, and outside food and drink are not allowed. Marquee's door is generally reasonable about cover-ups and sun shirts but strict on jerseys and hats.
Best days and timing
Doors open around 11 am and close about 6 pm during pool season. Saturday and Sunday are the big days, with Sunday often a strong close-of-weekend party. Friday is busy; Thursday and Monday tend to be relaxed. Because the deck is smaller, capacity is reached earlier than at bigger clubs, so arrive by noon on weekends. Marquee is central, so it pairs well with an evening at the Cosmopolitan itself or a walk to Bellagio and Caesars; you can be at dinner within fifteen minutes of leaving the pool.
How to book
Tickets, daybeds and cabanas are sold through the Marquee and Tao Group sites; table bookings connect you to a host who confirms the minimum and party size. Cosmopolitan guests can book through the concierge and may get a table hold on busy weekends. Third-party VIP hosts sell the same tables; confirm the all-in figure in writing. Never pay for a guest-list spot. The underlying system is the same as at the nightclubs, covered in our tickets and guest lists guide.
Insider tips and what to avoid
- Book a Cosmopolitan room facing away from the terrace if the bass will bother you; the fountain-view side is quieter.
- Use the Boulevard Pool instead if you are a hotel guest who wants a lively deck with a DJ but no cover; on weekdays it is nearly as fun.
- The grand cabanas are the most photographed spots on the Strip and are worth it for a milestone group; for four people a daybed is enough.
- Eat inside the resort first; The Cosmopolitan's food hall is a few minutes away and far cheaper than the deck menu.
- Watch the Dome calendar if you visit in winter and want a dayclub at all.
