Long embraced as a highlight of the spring calendar, this multi-day celebration of music, community and desert living is once again bringing out the best in country culture right here in Arizona. www.flyingeranch.com
At AZDCMA, we’re proud to support events like this that embody the spirit of the open West — where wide skies, good music, and genuine camaraderie are the order of the day.
Set on thousands of acres of classic Arizona landscape, Party in the Desert isn’t just a concert — it’s a four-day immersion into western lifestyle. From tent camping beside friends to gathering around campfires under the stars, this festival brings together the sights, sounds, and soul of country culture in a setting that only the Sonoran desert can deliver.
Festival Goers can expect great food, artisan vendors, and unforgettable live music as part of this year’s lineup. Already announced performers include Shenandoah (March 27), Corey Kent and Randall King (March 28), and Chancey Williams (March 29), with more AZ local talent still to be revealed.
Whether you’re a longtime country fan or new to this kind of gathering, there’s something magical about hearing live music echo across the desert plains — especially with legendary open skies overhead.
In true ranch style, both festival and camping passes are required for entry. This encourages a vibrant yet relaxed experience where people can fully enjoy every moment of the celebration. From general admission to VIP options that offer early entry and special stage access, there’s a pass for every level of experience.
Local accommodations in Wickenburg are also an option for attendees who’d rather rest off-site — but true festival lovers know that waking up steps from the music and camaraderie under the desert sunrise is part of what makes this event unforgettable.
Dates: March 26–29, 2026
Tickets and passes are required for entry, with options available for festival access and camping experiences.
