DJ Pope.
Straight from Colombia.
The takeover continues. Friday night got you dancing at the stadium — Saturday, J Balvin's touring DJ gets you dancing in the sun. DJ Pope lands from Colombia for the biggest Latin pool day of the summer.
The DJ behind the biggest name in reggaeton.
DJ Pope tours the world as J Balvin's DJ — the sets that move stadiums, now poolside at Tailgate. The morning after the biggest Latin night of the Vegas summer, the party doesn't go home. It comes to the water: five pools, 22 cabanas, and a 145-foot LED wall turned all the way up.
Saturday, turned up.
A headliner-tier set
This is the takeover's marquee booking — a full set from a DJ who plays the world's biggest rooms, in the open Vegas sun.
The concert afterglow
Half the stadium is still at Mandalay Bay on Saturday. This is where the weekend's energy collects — same crowd, new daylight.
Vegas Latin heat
Support sets keep the deck moving from doors to close — come early, the water's the best seat before the headline set.
Three days. One story.
The Pre-Party
Exile, !amLou, and i5 set the tone before the stadium show. Day one of the takeover.
Friday's Party →DJ Pope
J Balvin's touring DJ, flown in from Colombia. The marquee day of the weekend.
Be here when Pope drops in.
Saturday of a stadium weekend is the hottest ticket on the deck. General admission covers the day; cabanas and daybeds put your crew in the middle of it with service all afternoon.
Everything you'd ask.
