The Hilton Palm Springs Pool, Palm Springs
400 E Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs, CA 92262The G-Spot Pool Party opens The Dinah 2026's pool run on Friday, noon to 6 PM at The Hilton Palm Springs. It is the first of the weekend's three big Hilton deck parties, with the Dinah DJs running the afternoon and live performances layered in. The festival describes it as thousands of attendees poolside, dancing and splashing - and in practice it is the easier of the two Saturday-scale parties to actually move around in. The Hilton is at 400 E Tahquitz Canyon Way, with the festival Welcome Center in the lobby.
