Art & Music in the Coachella Valley
Art & Music in the Coachella Valley
Every April, Palm Springs hosts 750,000 music fans for three weeks of cultural experiences. This year, Life House offers exclusive events away from festival crowds, featuring top artists and serene retreats.
Every April, Palm Springs emerges as a pivotal hub of art and culture across the United States, drawing in over 750,000 music enthusiasts over the course of three weeks to experience the desert’s creative embrace. Inspired by the work of the nearby artist community, Life House, Palm Springs has teamed up with three entertainment powerhouses to deliver on our mission – providing meaningful artistic experiences, tucked away from the festival crowds, to our network of travelers across the globe.
Programming will begin on April 12, with our first weekend packed to the brim with performances curated by the international music platform, Mahogany. Opening with an intimate, poolside performance from a Rolling Stone-featured guest, this weekend of daily Swim Sessions will feature artists "Earth's Only Paradise," Le Youth, Rinzen, Model Man, and Mojave Grey alongside surprise headliner acts beginning each day at noon. Los Angeles’ Silverlake Flea will take over our garden clubhouse on Saturday and Sunday with local, vintage goods for prime festival-wear, while Minerva’s Bar and Restaurant will be serving signature YOLA cocktails alongside crisp glasses of La Coste's Lady A by the pool. Supergoop sunscreen will be provided, as Mahogany’s Swim Sessions runs through April 14, with limited reservations available on Eventbrite for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Over the course of Coachella’s second weekend, Secular Sabbath will be slowing things down with sets from RHYE, Niia Rocco, Illangelo, Angelfire, and additional well-known guests. Throughout the experience, guests will be invited to unwind and take a beat from the magnitude of the festival, with a more mindful and creative retreat. Each day begins with wellness ceremonies and journaling, followed by yoga and breathwork from Open Studios’ Lihi Benisty. Poolside sets from Secular Sabbath’s artist community take place both day and night, with signature dishes served from Life House Palm Springs’ restaurant and bar, Minerva’s. Ozone therapy, tintype portraits from The Alchemistress, and live-drawing classes will round out the weekend for a full multisensory immersion.
Beyond Coachella, Life House will transform into Los Angeles’ Winston House, presenting the “Dive Bar,” an all-day poolside concert series featuring the best of country music. The lineup will soon be announced.
Limited tickets are available on Eventbrite, with hotel guests receiving priority seating. Book yours while availability lasts.
