Justin Martin, Mark Farina, Destructo, OMNOM, Ranger Trucco, Drew Dapps, Tara Brooks, and more will play at the upcoming edition of Desert Hearts Festival.
Desert Hearts Festival has been on quite a ride over the past decade. From its humble beginnings in the desert and many years spent at Los Coyotes to an edition in Los Angeles and, more recently, finding its new home across state lines, nothing has stopped the DH crew on their mission of bringing house, techno, and love to the masses. Last year, Desert Hearts Festival teamed up with Walter Productions to make its stunning debut at Playa Ponderosa in Flagstaff, Arizona, and now they’re running it back this summer.
The community, creativity, and passion that Desert Hearts exudes help make this festival special, but the non-stop music as the soundtrack takes it to a whole different level. This year, Desert Hearts Festival has curated yet another solid lineup of artists who will take the stage from July 3-7. Some artists who immediately stand out include legends like Mark Farina, Justin Martin, and Destructo, along with rising phenoms such as Ranger Trucco, OMNOM, The Sponges, Kyle Walker, Nala, and Mary Droppinz.
That’s just the start of the depth that Desert Hearts Festival is bringing with its lineup this year. Sets that certainly shouldn’t be missed include those from Atish, Andreas Henneberg, N2N, Malcolm Brown, Chocolate Sushi, Tara Brooks, Ofier, MNTRA, and Evan Casey. Additionally, the back-to-back that brings DJ Minx and Kevin Knapp together on stage will surely have you feeling the groove. And you certainly won’t want to sleep on the closing set, which will feature all four Desert Hearts founders: Mikey Lion, Lee Reynolds, Marbs, and Porky.
I’ll put Desert Hearts Festival up against any party in the world. Nothing touches the vibe we’ve created. It’s 72 hours of non-stop house, techno and love on one stage, one vibe, in the great outdoors. And that’s not even counting the Thursday ‘Welcome Home’ party. We’ve built this independently for over a decade, with heart, intention and the best community on Earth. It’s more than a party. It’s a movement. If you know, you know. If you don’t, 2025 is the year to find out.

You never have to worry about missing a beat at Desert Hearts Festival. Their one-stage, one-vibe format brings the entire community together to dance the day and night away, all within the confines of art car arena. Of course, that’s not all that’s in store, as there are plenty of immersive art installations, theme camps, and even a forest of fire-breathing sculptures to explore throughout the rest of the festival grounds.
