Make tracks to the Mojave Desert this October for the 10th RISE Festival, the largest sky lantern festival in the world. This three-night festival will welcome an impressive lineup of musical acts, including Calvin Harris and John Mayer, combining top headliners with a range of art.
“The 10th anniversary of RISE Festival is by far our most ambitious, expansive and exciting edition yet,” said David Oehm, CEO, RISE Festival. “This new musical chapter brings an even deeper vibrancy and spirit to our gathering. It’s a celebration of shared energy, of artistic excellence and of our collective journey beneath the stars.”
Tickets start at $189 for a Silver Package, which gives you access to the sky lantern ceremony (and two sky lanterns), six musical performances, access to all art installations, unlimited water refills and a personal desert cushion. For an enhanced V.I.P. experience, though, you can purchase a Diamond Package, which further includes expedited entry, access to multiple V.I.P. areas including restrooms, complimentary dining, a complimentary open bar and more. Diamond Package tickets are $989.
Tickets only apply to one day of the three-day festival, so if you’d like to attend multiple days, you’ll need to purchase separate tickets.
