The city of Angels relocated to Palm Springs this weekend for an incredible weekend of music, friends turned family, and needless to say a memorable time and one for the books. Sure Coachella, a 3-day music festival in Indio, had the crowd hyped with incredible DJ sets, performances and surprise guests the real party was in Palm Springs. No ticket to the festival, no problem - a few brands came together to throw some mind-blowing invite-only bashes. Poolside, beverages, musical performances and more had attendees saying, 'Coachella Who'.

Taking place at the elegant boutique Ingleside Inn hotel in the heart of Palm Springs and paying homage to party city Las Vegas was 'What Happens Here Stays Here' (WHHSH) party. The Music Lounge, produced by BMF Media, witnessed the unveiling of #WHHSH Beer, an exclusive Las Vegas product and enjoyed highly curated Las Vegas experiences coming to Palm Springs for this weekend only, which featured VIP performances and top-tier celebrity appearances.

The event captured the energy and excitement that is exactly Las Vegas, (take a look HERE for the top 100 things to eat, see, and drink while in Sin City.) Guests at the event loved the WHHSH Beer on site that is crafted locally in Las Vegas by Tenaya Creek Brewery. The pale ale is packed with hints of citrus and pine and creates a cool, clean finish - which was done perfectly. The brew is only available at LAs Vegas sponsored events. “As the first endeavor to incorporate products into the WHHSH campaign, we wanted to make something fitting for Las Vegas and, most importantly, we wanted to convey what the Las Vegas brand stands for,” said Arnie DiGeorge, executive creative director at R&R Partners, the LVCVA’s integrated marketing agency of record. “What Happens Here, Stays Here has always been about the freedom to be and do in Vegas what you can't at home. We felt that #WHHSH Beer is the perfect embodiment of that and a reminder of what awaits when you embrace the Vegas lifestyle.”
