Summer music festivals

  • Music
  • Dance and electronic
  • Palm Springs

Looking for another excuse to escape to the desert? Try this team-up from Splash House and Goldenvoice, which are putting together an electronic music fest at the Palm Springs Air Museum. Kaytranada, Jamie xx, Club Heat (Tove Lo and SG Lewis) and Slayyyter top the mid-November event.

  • Music
  • Rap, hip-hop and R&B
  • Echo Park

With its tongue exercise of a title, the Tyler, the Creator–curated hip-hop fest returns to Dodger Stadium for two days of live tunes, carnival rides, games, food trucks and more. The 2024 lineup isn’t out quite yet, but last year’s edition included the Hillbillies (Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem), SZA and Tyler, the Creator.
