Event Essentials & What You Need to Know

The party is going down at a private estate in beautiful Encino, California.

When it comes to parking, valet service will be available for around $15–$20. If you’re able to carpool, that’s a great way to cut costs and keep things green—and you might even score a parking discount. Street parking is limited, so valet is definitely the move.

General Admission tickets get you full access to the pool party: we’re talking music, vibes, community, and curated vendor magic. If you’re feeling a little extra (and we love that for you), VIP and cabana options come with upgraded lounge seating and a few luxe surprises to help you party in style.

To keep things cute and comfortable, don’t forget your plus size swimsuit, a large towel or blanket, sunscreen, and maybe a sun hat or umbrella for good measure. There will be some shaded areas, but it’s summer in SoCal—so come prepared to soak up the sun.

Coming solo? Totally welcome. Bringing your squad? Also perfect. This space is intentionally inclusive, fat-positive, and welcoming to allies and friends of all identities. Whether you’re showing up with your crew or flying solo, you’re in for a beautiful time.

The pool itself is a spacious wading-style setup—perfect for lounging, cooling off, and snapping content. It’s not a diving pool, but it’s just right for a chill, social vibe with 100+ of your newest friends.

Hungry? Thirsty? You’ll be covered. Food and drinks will be available for purchase onsite, with a mix of cocktails and mocktails to keep everyone refreshed. Outside food and drink isn’t allowed, but if you have dietary needs, just reach out through Eventbrite ahead of time and the team will do their best to accommodate.

Lastly, yes—there are all-gender restrooms available. Just note that a few of them do have steps, so if you need assistance or specific accessibility info, it’s best to connect with the organizers beforehand.

This milestone celebration brings together a fabulous crowd to honor 10 years of plus size empowerment, fashion-forward vibes, and authentic community connection.
