In celebration of Woogie Weekend’s second anniversary, Do LaB has revealed this whimsical 2016 Woogie Weekend Official Lineup Trailer displaying the abundance of fun found on the blissful grounds of Oak Canyon Park.
Attendees at this year’s Coachella Weekends 1 & 2 got a sneak peek of the musical and architectural magic Do LaB has up their sleeves for their upcoming spring/summer events when they hosted their namesake ‘Big Fish’ stage on the Indio grounds this past April to a resounding success! Woogie Weekend serves as one of the more colorful and intimate affairs Do LaB will host throughout the year.

A veritable adult-sized wonderland replete with an abundance of activities to further amplify the energy of the weekend, Woogie Weekend welcomes revelers with a plethora of water-themed installations designed to be both optically-dazzling and a functional way to cool off. True-to-form, Do LaB provides a complete festival experience beyond their stellar production, with sunrise yoga sets, live art from the Do Art Foundation, the finest selection of fresh cuisine for all campers, and an array of magnetizing vendors, bursting with tasty treasures.
