Sold-Out 'Splash House' Music Fest Opens Friday

PALM SPRINGS, CA -- The first weekend of the sold out Splash House music festival begins tomorrow, bringing electronic artists and swimsuit-clad partiers to the desert for a three-day event held at three different Palm Springs venues.

The 21 and over event begins with an after hours party Friday night, and then performances throughout Saturday and Sunday on two stages at Riviera Palm Springs and one at the Saguaro. Around 15,000 people are expected to fill the pools and rooms at both hotels.

After hours events will be held from 9:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights at the Palm Springs Air Museum.

Headliners include Jai Wolf, Justin Martin, Lee Foss, Nora en Pure, Odesza and Guy Gerber, who are among more 40 performers scheduled for the 4th annual Splash House.

Free shuttles will be available to transport attendees from one venue to the other throughout the festival.

Other activities will include the "Bitchin' Balconies" contest, encouraging festival goers to decorate their hotel balconies at the Riviera and Saguaro under the categories of "Best Group Theme," "Best Pool View Room," and "Best Mountain/Garden View Room." Five winners will be selected and awarded with tickets to next year's Splash House, while one group will take home the grand prize of a room package to the 2017 Splash House plus a signed artist poster.

Tickets are also currently available for Weekend 2 of the Splash House, slated for Aug. 12-14.
