Desert Daze – the festival slated to kick off on October 10 at Moreno Beach in Lake Perris, CA – has been cancelled. Desert Daze featured a handful of metal acts including a rare appearance by Sleep, another Power Trip reunion show, Converge, Jesus Piece, All Them Witches, The Mars Volta, and Unwound.

According to festival organizers, the cancellation is due to rising production costs and a volatile market. Organizers promise refunds to ticketholders via their point of purchase.

“We are heartbroken to announce that Desert Daze – scheduled for October 10 – 13, 2024 in Lake Perris, CA – is canceled. Pass holders will be refunded, and will be contacted directly via their point of purchase.

“As an independent festival, an increasing rarity in today’s festival market, Desert Daze is run by a small team of people who love live music and this community. Unfortunately, due to rising production costs and the current volatile festival market, it is no longer possible to execute the weekend as planned.

“With each year, we do our best to serve the Desert Daze community. We are always learning and working diligently to improve the experience, and we tried everything to find a way forward.

“From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your support. Desert Daze is more than a festival or business venture to us. The community that we’ve cultivated together means so much to us and is the reason we will continue to work to find a way to keep this beautiful thing going for many years to come. While we hit pause for now, we will be working in the background to deliver another special experience for all of us to share in the future.”
