Following the likes of Vegas hotspots Marquee and OMNIA, DAER will be made up of a nightclub, a poolside dayclub and a rooftop club.

The Dayclub
Because dayclubs and pools basically go hand in hand, the 21,130 square-foot dayclub will feature a resort-style pool.  But that’s not it – it’ll also have alongside that two dipping pools.  Add some hot tubs, sun beds, 13 private cabanas, bungalow VIP sections and a DJ booth featuring a 40-foot LED screen, and voilà.  You have yourself the perfect afternoon.

The Nightclub
The sun may go down, but the party never stops.  DAER will boast 18,800 square feet of indoor space, but what good that without some epic visuals and audio?  The designers clearly thought the same, because the nightclub will have a state-of-the-art Function One sound system as well as feature a high-performance LED centrepiece designed by world renowned lighting designer Steve Lieberman.  And finally, to top things off, the millennial favourite: the rooftop!  This will be a 4,000 square-feet space overlooking Hard Rock Hollywood’s lagoon and pool area as well as the Bora Bora villas.   

With the opening slated for Fall 2019, you can already sign up for your VIP experience here!

For Steve Lieberman, the whole concept of impressive stages is anything but strange. He and his company, SJ Lighting, have been producing intricate festival masterpieces for quite some time now. With events such as EDC New York and Las Vegas, Coachella, and Ultra under their belt, they are arguably some of the best stage designers in the game. Lieberman has worked every Ultra Miami since its inaugural edition in 1999, and this year he will be creating stages for the Carl Cox & Friends Arena and Worldwide stage. In addition to that, he is also the lighting designer and production coordinator for the main stage.

“It’s a total immersive experience. I want people to walk in there and feel like you’re part of the whole — that we’re not necessarily individuals. You are part of something bigger.”

One interesting thing to consider is that the production of Ultra’s main stage today costs more than the entire festival itself did back in the earlier beginnings. Although it may be hard for many ravers nowadays to imagine, EDM events were not always as popular as they are now. In regards to the costs of production, Lieberman stated, “It’s gone from a subculture to a mainstream environment. And with that comes funding.” And indeed, funding has come, and along with that funding is the immersive experience of attending festivals such as Ultra. If you are lucky enough to be partying it up in Miami this weekend, take a moment to remember that painstakingly hard work was done to create such a wonderful environment full of love and joy.

“I want it to almost give you whiplash… You feel the intensity from the pressure of the sound system to the movement of the crowd — it’s all of it.”
