Fisher set the tone on Friday, Rüfüs Du Sol made history on Saturday, and Martin Garrix closed the books on one of the most ambitious dayclub launches the Strip has ever seen.
The hype was real. After months of anticipation, renderings, and a lineup announcement that had the EDM world buzzing, Tao Group Hospitality’s OMNIA Dayclub & Skybar officially threw open its doors on the Las Vegas Strip the weekend of May 15–17, and the verdict is in: this place is the real deal.
We were on the ground for opening day Friday, and what we experienced left zero doubt that OMNIA Dayclub has immediately planted itself at the top of the Las Vegas daylife conversation.

Friday, May 15 — FISHER Opens the Book
There’s a reason Tao Group chose Fisher to christen OMNIA Dayclub’s very first afternoon in existence. The Australian house music icon doesn’t just play a set — he commands a room. And on Friday, May 15th, he commanded 46,000 square feet of brand-new Las Vegas Boulevard real estate like he’d been performing there for years.
Walking in for the first time, the scale of this place hits you immediately. The grand staircase from the Strip drops you directly into the action, and the view from the pool deck — looking out over Las Vegas Boulevard with the L-Acoustics L2 sound system already thumping — is genuinely something else. This isn’t a pool tucked behind a casino. This is a statement.
The staff on opening day were exceptional. For a venue launching on one of the highest-pressure nights imaginable — opening day, EDC Week, a sold-out crowd — the service was smooth, professional, and genuinely warm. Cabana attendants, bartenders, and floor staff all delivered at a level that reflected serious preparation from Tao Group. It’s the kind of hospitality detail that separates a great venue from a truly great experience, and OMNIA Dayclub nailed it on day one.
After DJ Lema’s perfect warm-up set getting the crowd ready for liftoff, Fisher’s set was everything his reputation promises: locked-in grooves, relentless energy, and a crowd that never let up. The 8K LED stage screen in full daylight is a flex that works. Visuals popped in the afternoon sun in a way that most indoor club setups can’t touch.
The location on Las Vegas Boulevard is an absolute knockout. You’re not buried in a resort tower or tucked into a back corner of a casino. You’re on the Strip, elevated above it, with the energy of Las Vegas Boulevard feeding directly into the atmosphere of the pool deck. On a perfect May afternoon with Fisher on the decks, it felt like the city was performing alongside him.
Saturday, May 16 — Rüfüs Du Sol Makes a Rare Appearance
If Friday was about raw energy, Saturday was about emotion. Rüfüs Du Sol took the decks for a rare and exclusive DJ set on Saturday, May 16, and given how seldom the Australian melodic trio accepts DJ bookings, this was a moment the crowd understood they were witnessing something special. Instagram
Reports from Saturday painted a picture of a more elevated, atmospheric afternoon — the kind of set where the crowd is as locked in emotionally as they are physically. Rüfüs in a poolside setting, with the Strip as your backdrop and the Ibiza-inspired design wrapping around you, is a pairing that simply makes sense. The organically shaped pools, the teak and woven hyacinth design details, the custom daybeds — the space was built for exactly this kind of moment.
Sunday, May 17 — Martin Garrix and a World Record
Sunday brought the exclamation point. Dutch phenomenon Martin Garrix closed out opening weekend on Sunday, May 17, setting the stage for 12-time X Games medalist Colby Raha’s world-record motorcycle jump attempt over the Caesars Palace Front Fountains at 2 p.m. Instagram
Raha’s ascent carried him visibly above the venue itself, giving the opening weekend crowd a front-row view of history from within the venue — merging world-class music with world-class spectacle. On a Martin Garrix afternoon at a brand-new dayclub on the Las Vegas Strip, a guy on a motorcycle flew over the same fountains that put Evel Knievel in a coma. That is Las Vegas operating at its absolute peak. Instagram
The Verdict
The location is unmatched. The production is festival-grade. The design is genuinely beautiful. And if opening day is any indication, the staff and service culture Tao Group has built here is something the competition will be trying to replicate all summer.
Tao Group Co-CEO Jason Strauss noted:
“This opening marks a major milestone in our continued investment in Las Vegas, We are all in. OMNIA Dayclub & Skybar expands our OMNIA ecosystem into an unmatched day-to-night experience, reinforcing our commitment to shaping the future of hospitality and global entertainment, and our commitment to Vegas as an entertainment capital of the world, for all guests, day and night.”
With a resident roster that includes Tiësto, Chris Lake, Alesso, Steve Aoki, Afrojack, and Elderbrook still to come throughout the season, OMNIA Dayclub & Skybar has only just begun to show what it’s capable of.
Las Vegas has a new crown jewel. We were there when it opened, and we can’t wait to go back.
