"We’re ridiculously proud to share the lineup we curated for Desert Hearts Microfest.

Since Microfest is such an intimate gathering, we wanted every artist on this lineup to feel intentional. We brought together a healthy mix of house and techno legends, cutting-edge up-and-comers, some Europeans on the same wavelength as us, and a dose of Desert Hearts Family veterans who know the DH vibe better than anyone.

The result is a lineup that feels forward-thinking, deeply rooted, and made for the Desert Hearts community. We can’t wait to experience it all with you." — Mikey and Marbs

The announcement arrives alongside “A Place For Us,” the latest single from Desert Hearts’ Mikey Lion and Marbs under their newly unified artist project. Released today, the track extends the group’s recent creative evolution while reaffirming the sense of belonging at the center of everything Desert Hearts has built over more than a decade.

Set across the 132-acre Deloro Valley summer camp and retreat in the Sierra Nevada foothills, Microfest offers a more intimate way to experience the Desert Hearts world. By day, attendees can cool down by the pool, explore the property, join activities with friends, or find a quiet place beneath the trees. At night, the focus shifts to underground house and techno presented through a state-of-the-art Void Acoustics sound system, with additional curated experiences unfolding throughout the site.

While Desert Hearts has always approached its flagship gathering as a boutique festival, Microfest narrows the focus further, prioritizing intimacy, community and connection in a new natural setting. Whether dancing until sunrise or slowing down by the pool, the weekend is designed to bring the Desert Hearts community together in a way that feels both new and true to its roots.
