The Desert Air Is Calling
Are you ready to escape the norm? Head out to the beautiful California desert as you escape the chaos of the city. This November, Desert Air returns to Palm Springs one of the neatest venues in the country.
Desert Air, presented by Splash House and Goldenvoice, will bring an eclectic mix of avant garde tastemakers and genre-bending DJs to two of the region’s most idyllic open-air venues. It’ll be a decadent treat for anyone who is able to attend this iconic festival!
By day, music and cultural programming set the stage at Palm Springs Surf Club. You’ll get to immerse yourself in poolside sets, cultural programming, water activities, and expansive food offerings. By night, the party lands at the iconic grounds of the Palm Springs Air Museum, a destination known for positioning electronic music amidst its open-air tarmac and industrial hangers, set beneath the wings of vintage aircrafts and backdropped by the picturesque San Jacinto mountains. It is BEAUTIFUL, to say the least.
Billing highlights include innovative super producer Jamie xx, the genre-defying Kaytranada, and special guest Club Heat, the newly formed collaborative project from Grammy-nominated artist Tove Lo and British singer-songwriter/producer SG Lewis. The lineup also features British icon Shygirl Presents Club Shy, underground queen VTSS, electropop star Slayyyter (DJ Set), and fast rising UK bass and garage phenom Sammy Virji.
The lineup continues with one of North America’s most respected selectors, Avalon Emerson, and the inimitable Joy Orbison whose recent track ‘Flight FM’ has rivaled even his most prolific archival efforts. Genres continue to be crossed and melded with the likes of Swedish pop phenom COBRAH, Partiboi69 and KETTAMA’s KETBOI69, Australian standout Mall Grab, French trio Bon Entendeur, the ethereal soundscapes of Sofia Kourtesis, and an electrifying performance from Sam Gellaitry (Live).
Dedicated to shining a light on left of center movement leaders, Desert Air boasts sets from multi-hyphenate Pretty Girl (Live), Punjabi garage leader Yung Singh, Italy’s okgiorgio, London duo JOY (Anonymous), and underground rising stars Anish Kumar and ATRIP.
Fans can also expect a series of to-be-announced after parties, top-tier food programming, and more, offering an experience that reflects the multi-faceted landscape of global nightlife and the cultural hotbed of Palm Springs. If you haven’t been, it’s time for you to check it out!
