Where to Find Coachella's Hottest After-Parties

April 13, 2010 at 10:30 AM | by | Comments (0)

Coachella, the indie music fest out in the desert, is on from April 16 to 18, and right now the ticketed masses are flocking to set up camp in Indio. Of course the partying begins in the skies, but the one thing the Coachella throngs will be focused on aside from the music stages are the after-parties. It's hard to navigate the slew of bashes that are held in conjunction with the 11th annual festival. But we rounded up some of the best options that'll allow you to let loose and cool off in the desert.

See our top three Coachella party picks after the jump.

· Ace Hotel and Swim Club
The pool area of this hotel will be hopping during the fest. Last year, the nearby Palm Springs hotel provided music fans with booze sno-cones, a pop-up Levi's store, ping pong and, of course, lots of tunes poolside from live bands.

· Riviera Resort and Spa
For more poolside action, take a shuttle from the festival to the Riviera. Music Loves Fashion will have a party each day of the fest alongside the hotel's star-shaped pool. There will be more than 40 DJs performing (including Joel Madden) and some fashion shows. Paris Hilton partied at the '09 Music Loves Fashion shindig, so look for her here again.

· Campgrounds
If you were lucky enough to snag a spot at one of the now-sold-out campsites, the camping area will for sure be one big party. Although no glass liquor bottles are permitted, a "reasonable amount of beer" is allowed. So bring a case for yourself and mingle with the other music heads. The campgrounds will also host Down & Derby, an old-school roller-skating party. DJs will rock roller-rink hits from the '70s and '80s. Burlesque star Dita Von Teese was spotted around here in '09, and we hope she returns for 2010.
