The event, which has remained independent since launching in 2012, was unable to move forward with the 2024 edition due to “rising production costs and the current volatile festival market,” according to the announcement. 

“Desert Daze is more than a festival or business venture to us,” said Desert Daze co-founder Phil Pirrone in a release. “The community that we’ve cultivated together means so much to us and is the reason we will work to find a way to keep this beautiful thing going for many years to come.” 

The 2024 edition of Desert Daze was set to take place Oct. 10-13 in Lake Perris, Calif. Headliners for this year’s event were to include Jack White, Cigarettes After Sex, Alex G, The Mars Volta, Thundercat, Liz Phair and De La Soul.

“With each year, we do our best to serve the Desert Daze community,” added Pirrone. “We are always learning and working diligently to improve the experience, and we tried everything to find a way forward this year. While we hit pause for now, we will be working in the background to deliver another special experience for all of us to share in the future. We thank you for your support.” 

All pass holders for the 2024 festival will be refunded and will be contacted directly via their point of purchase. While the main event will not take place this year, side shows under the Desert Daze Presents banner will go forward as scheduled.
