WRISTBANDS

Your wristband is your pass to KAABOO, and activation is required. Note that waterproof wristband is impervious to both shower and swim pool, but it CANNOT be replaced if stolen.

REFRESH

And speaking of refreshing, dive into BASK, which is a Vegas-style Day Pool + Night Club presented by Coors Light. Grab a drink from the bar, unwind by the pool or challenge your amigos to some friendly games. BASK also features red hot performances from DJs that will keep you hopping.
