As the Mojave Desert turned gold at sunset, thousands gathered on the vast Jean Dry Lake Bed to mark the 10th anniversary of the RISE Festival — a landmark celebration of art, unity, and release. What began a decade ago as an experiment in shared intention has evolved into a world-renowned cultural phenomenon, blending music, mindfulness, and visual poetry into a singular experience of human connection beneath an endless desert sky.

This year’s edition, held October 3–5, 2025, marked its milestone with the largest production to date. RISE transformed the barren expanse south of Las Vegas into a radiant landscape of art installations, wellness sanctuaries, and a main stage alive deep into the night. When strong desert winds briefly halted setup on Friday, organizers swiftly adapted — a fitting testament to RISE’s enduring spirit of resilience, flexibility, and collective grace amid the elements.
