The Desert Daze festival, slated from September 30 to October 2, has announced its lineup. The festival is celebrating its tenth installation of art and music in Southern California. Desert Daze will be headlined by Australian band Tame Impala, who had to cancel their set in 2018 because of a massive storm. The band was supposed to headline Desert Daze in 2018 as well. This year, Tame Impala will play in support of their second studio album, Lonerism.

Also set to headline the festival are Iggy Pop, and King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard. The festival venue will also host video artists as well.

The art installations will highlight work by Tarik Barri, Mad Alchemy Liquid Light Show and Slim Reaper, among others. Additionally, the festival will highlight screenings and talks with a screening of Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia, a conversation on Mysticism in the Music Industry with artist and occultist Micki Pellerano, among other guests yet to be announced.
