How It Works

  • Weekend Passes: If you are not staying at Casa Oliver, passes are available at the Casa Oliver lobby for a special rate of $35 cash if you register here by September 18th; otherwise you may be required to pay the normal rate of $60. (ATM onsite)

  • Check-In & Raffle Details:

    • We have a suggested donation of $20 (Venmo: @vic_redux)

      • Donations enter you into our Supporter Raffle with chances to win big prizes.

      • Everyone is also included in our Wildcard Raffle — no donation required.

    • Check in with our friendly staff at a poolside table.

    • Waivers, wristbands, raffle tickets given here.

    • Raffle draw: Saturday 7:00 PM at Casa Oliver (Must be present to win).

  • Flex Vibes: All events are come-and-go. If things feel packed, the pool or maze is always waiting.

  • Photos: Always ask first. Respect, consent, and good vibes only.

  • Questions?: Look for someone with a red wristband and they’ll be happy to help.

Tips for a Good Time

  • Hydrate: Palm Springs heat is no joke. Forecasted to be 100 Degrees.

  • Sunscreen: Reapply sunscreen often — the desert sun hits harder than you think.

  • Footwear Tip: The concrete gets hot. Slippers are a must for walking around Casa Oliver.

  • Lock: Bring a lock so you can stash your stuff safely in a locker if you’re not staying at the resort.

  • Towel: Pack your own towel — it’ll save you from renting one at Casa Oliver.

  • Safety: See something? Say something. Let the crew know.
