Framework In The Desert has quickly become one of the most sought-after afterparty events for festival-goers looking to keep the party going once the sun goes down.

The event’s unique venue at Atlantic Aviation, an airport hangar just a few miles from the Coachella festival grounds, offers an incredible setting for a desert club experience.
