Electric Daisy Carnival rolled into Las Vegas this weekend, but not all the action was out at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Back on the Vegas Strip, plenty of daytime, poolside parties were taking place to keep the EDM masses cool during the hottest part of the day. We visited Drai's Beachclub at the Cromwell Hotel in Las Vegas, where Canadian duo Adventure Club provided the soundtrack for a huge party on the rooftop. All photos by Hannah Verbeuren
