Neon Carnival, the legendary late-night dance party synonymous with high-energy entertainment, electrifying performances and a star-studded guest list made its triumphant return to the desert on April 13.

The brainchild of famed LA nightlife king Brent Bolthouse and producing partner Jeffrey Best, Neon Carnival is a strict, invite-only event, spanning three football fields of carnival-style games, rides, bars, brand activations dance floor and, of course, the party’s iconic light-up ferris wheel.

Taking place at the Desert International Horse Park in Thermal, CA during Coachella Weekend One, Grammy winner Anderson .Paak headlined this year’s late night party as DJ Pee Wee. Viral TikTok sensation DJ Hunny Bee and Vanderpump Rules star DJ James Kennedy also jumped behind the decks playing sets that made the crowd go wold.
