Time Out says

UPDATE: Barely a month after its lineup reveal, Desert Daze announced that the 2024 fest has been canceled “due to rising production costs and the current volatile festival market.”

Desert Daze is your antidote to the typical desert gathering (think a noisier, more indie lineup than Coachella and less dirt than Burning Man). Though it’s close enough to L.A. to go just for the day, the fest caters to campers with easy access to hiking trails and a bazaar of mystics and wanderers.

After last year’s series of closer-to-home concerts, Desert Daze is back at Lake Perris from October 10 to 13 in full-blown festival form. Jack White, Cigarettes After Sex, Alex G and the Mars Volta headline the 2024 edition, with additional sets from Thundercat, Fleet Foxes, 100 Gecs, Sleep, Liz Phair, De La Soul, Marc Rebillet and more—including a Gold Diggers-curated jazz tent and a set from Death From Above 1979 playing You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine in full. It’s not just music, either: You can see Bikini Kill’s Kathleen Hanna read from her memoir, in conversation with the Mars Volta’s Cedric Bixler-Zavala.
