Neon Carnival takes place on the weekend of California’s most celebrated music festival and this year proved to be a lot of firsts! This year the fete is took over a new location – the HITS Desert Park, which proved to be a big WIN on all fronts! The location proved to be more spacious which means more room to hop, skip, frolic, and dance the night away!
“Through the years, we have been fortunate to see Neon Carnival’s popularity continue to increase and we have subsequently outgrown the Airfield that we have previously hosted the event at” said Brent Bolthouse. “We are thrilled about our new location, as the site will comfortably accommodate all our guests, who will also be able to park on-site this year. No more buses!”
