Framework In The Desert returns for its fifth anniversary with Armin van Buuren, Disclosure, Mochakk, and more
One of Coachella Weekend One’s most sought-after after-hours experiences is set to return in 2026.
Framework In The Desert has officially unveiled the lineup for its fifth anniversary celebration, taking place April 10-12, 2026, at the Atlantic Aviation airport hangar in Thermal, California, just minutes from the Empire Polo Fields in Indio.
Curated by Los Angeles event producer Framework, the three-night series has quickly become a staple of festival weekend, offering fans the chance to continue dancing long after the main stages shut down. Held inside a transformed aircraft hangar, the late-night experience has built a reputation for delivering immersive production and world-class electronic lineups during Coachella weekend one.
The anniversary edition kicks off Friday, April 10, with a headline DJ set from Disclosure, joined by KETTAMA b2b Prospa, as well as support from Azzecca and Riordan. On Saturday, April 11, the hangar will shift toward high-energy house and techno as Mochakk and Boys Noize take over the decks, joined by Max Dean b2b Luke Dean. The weekend concludes on Sunday, April 12, when dance music icon Armin van Buuren headlines the closing night alongside Marlon Hoffstadt, while Chloé Calliet and bullet tooth round out the lineup.
Since launching in 2022, Framework In The Desert has become one of the most talked-about Coachella afterparties, attracting thousands of festivalgoers each year who make the short trip from the Indio festival grounds to the nearby Thermal hangar. Adding to the immersive production, the event will once again feature the Long Feng Art Car, a striking stage structure originally created for Burning Man that combines LED panels, mechanized dragon heads, and performers to deliver a unique visual centerpiece for the dancefloor.
Tickets for Framework In The Desert 2026 are available now via DICE. VIP tables can be booked at WynnNightlife.com. Follow Framework on social media for future updates and announcements.
