Palm Tree Beach Club Makes a Dazzling Vegas Debut with Kygo, Jessica Alba, Patrick Schwarzenegger, and More

On Saturday, May 3rd, the shimmering new Palm Tree Beach Club made its highly-anticipated debut at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, ushering in a new era of daylife entertainment on the Strip. A bold collaboration between Palm Tree Crew — the global lifestyle and entertainment brand founded by world-renowned DJ, producer, and tropical house pioneer Kygo, alongside manager and entrepreneur Myles Shear — and nightlife juggernaut Tao Group Hospitality, the grand opening was nothing short of legendary.

In a city known for its unapologetic excess and larger-than-life parties, Palm Tree Beach Club immediately made a name for itself as a next-level oasis. The 60,000-square-foot venue masterfully blends lush, vibrant tropical energy with luxury poolside dining, panoramic Strip views, and world-class entertainment. Guests can soak it up in style with a saltwater pool, 12 exclusive beach villas, 10 breezy coastal cabanas, and a sprawling ground-level stage primed for A-list talent and day-to-night revelry. And party they did.

The venue’s launch weekend was a full-throttle celebration of sun-drenched opulence and celebrity sparkle. A stacked roster of VIPs turned up to christen the space, including Sydney Sweeney, Jessica Alba, Patrick Schwarzenegger, J. Balvin, Alesso, Machine Gun Kelly (now MGK), and many more. It wasn’t just a party — it was a statement.

The festivities also marked a monumental moment for Kygo, as the globally beloved producer kicked off his first-ever daylife residency on the Las Vegas Strip. And he didn’t hold back. The Norwegian superstar brought his signature uplifting energy to the decks with a meticulously curated full-scale production that incorporated everything from soaring grand piano solos and dynamic drummers to live orchestras and powerhouse vocalists.

If Kygo’s own set wasn’t enough to leave jaws on the floor, his parade of surprise guests ensured this party would be remembered as one of the most electrifying opening weekends in Vegas history. Ava Max appeared for a show-stopping duet of their track “Whatever”, while global heavyweights Zedd, Steve Aoki, Justin Jesso, Parson James, Victoria Nadine, and more kept the energy sky-high.

As cocktails flowed and beats bounced off the surrounding palm trees, the club’s immersive atmosphere transported attendees from the neon glow of Las Vegas to a coastal paradise tailor-made for summer escapism.

The arrival of Palm Tree Beach Club isn’t just another addition to the Strip — it’s a game-changer. With its beachy, modern-luxe aesthetic and nonstop high-energy performances, the venue raises the bar for what Vegas daylife can be. Bespoke bottle service, VIP villas, and panoramic views blend seamlessly with top-tier electronic music curation, promising a summer season loaded with can’t-miss events.

And this debut is only the start. The upcoming summer roster boasts an electrifying list of headliners including Tiësto, Martin Garrix, Fisher, Chris Lake, DJ Pauly D, and many more, ensuring that Palm Tree Beach Club will remain one of the hottest tickets in town.

If the opening weekend of Palm Tree Beach Club is any indication, Vegas has officially found its new daylife crown jewel. Equal parts luxury escape and euphoric beach party, it’s a place where world-class artists, celebrities, and music lovers collide under the sun, soundtracked by the shimmering sounds of the world’s best DJs. And as Kygo himself proved — this is only the beginning. Palm Tree Beach Club is open now at MGM Grand Las Vegas. Plan your next escape accordingly.
