The desert's definitive poolside house-music weekender returns across two August weekends — August 7–9 and August 14–16 — spanning three Palm Springs resorts that become one connected festival. The Renaissance, the Saguaro and the Hilton host DJs spinning from midday to sunset over the pools, shuttles running between properties, and after-hours sets moving to the Palm Springs Air Museum once the sun goes down.
Splash House isn't a big-field rave — it's a boutique weekender built around the pool. Think house, disco, tech-house and dance music programmed for people who'd rather be knee-deep in water with a drink than packed into a photo pit. The vibe is grown, curated and unapologetically hedonistic, which is exactly why it's become a rite of passage for the SoCal dance crowd.
The 2026 lineups are already out. Weekend One (Aug 7–9) is anchored by The Chainsmokers alongside Ship Wrek, Biscits, SLAMM, ALLEYCVT, Layton Giordani and WHIPPED CREAM. Weekend Two (Aug 14–16) brings Alison Wonderland, Prospa, D.O.D, Tiga, Whethan, Riordan and OMNOM, with after-hours sets from Gorgon City and friends at the Air Museum. Each weekend is its own ticket and its own lineup, so plenty of people do both.
This is a 21+ event start to finish — Palm Springs, resort takeovers, pool decks and all. It's peak summer-in-the-desert culture, and it lands right in the lane our community loves: sun, water, serious sound systems and a crowd that knows how to keep it moving all weekend. Consumption rules are set by the resorts and the promoter, so check the official policies before you pack.
Logistics matter here: passes include the inter-hotel shuttle, rooms at the host resorts sell out first, and Palm Springs in August is genuinely hot — hydrate, plan your pool time and book lodging early.
