Where’s the official Splash House 2025 afterparty?
After Hours, Splash House’s late-night programming, takes place at the Palm Springs Air Museum. The museum’s tarmac becomes a massive outdoor dance floor complete with lights, lasers, and vintage aircraft. Expect the DJs to push their sounds deeper and harder than they would during the day. The tag team of Diplo and Blond:ish kicks off the first weekend with Azzecca and Waxtroda (Wax Motif and Matroda), while UK dance favorites Disclosure and Cloonee hit the decks for weekend two.
After Hours runs from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Friday night, and from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Saturday night. Entrance requires a separate ticket from the daytime pool parties (unless you bought a combo or season pass), but shuttle transportation to and from the host hotels is included.
What is there to eat at Splash House?
Splash House offers a number of on-site dining options among its host venues, such as Riviera’s Palmetto Cafe, Saguaro’s El Jefe Desert Cantina, and Renaissance’s Rocks. If you’re feeling peckish on the dance floor but don’t want to leave the party, all three hotels have a poolside bar for ordering quick eats like burgers, nachos, and sandwiches. Drinks like margaritas, mojitos, beer, and wine will probably cost between $10 and $20.
If you want to venture off-site for a meal, grab New York-style sandwiches at Sherman’s Deli & Bakery, get lost in the gorgeous ambience of upscale American restaurant Bar Cecil, or enjoy Italian al fresco at Birba. For some of these, making a reservation will save you waiting time. Sometimes, though, you just want to stuff your face in the privacy of your hotel room. It’s not uncommon to have outside food delivered, but you’ll also want to load up on snacks and drinks for the inevitable late-night munchies when everything is closed.
If you want to make a ritual out of the weekend, diners like the Southern France-inspired FARM and Wilma & Frieda, which serves comfort food “with a twist,” are hot spots for a Friday pre-Splash breakfast or Monday hangover recovery.
