White Party 2015 Palm Springs
An international showcase, White Party Palm Springs has become synonymous with setting the trends that other events follow. White Party producer, Jeffrey Sanker has planned a non-stop cavalcade of indoor and outdoor parties that will be nothing short of electrifying.
Superstars like Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, and Icona Pop have launched their careers at White Party. Keeping ahead of the curve, Sanker will again present the best, new cutting-edge talent, along with an epic, superstar-headlining performer.
This year, White Party Ambassador, Big Brother and Rock of Ages star Frankie Grande, along with tens of thousands of sexy men from all over the globe will ascend upon White Party Palm Springs happening April 24-27, 2015.
Upon being named White Party Ambassador, Grande said, “As a proud member of the LGBT community, being chosen as a White Party Ambassador is such an honor. I was blown away by the event last year and am excited to come back again this year to host the White Carpet arrivals and represent my community.”
Joining Grande on the White Carpet will be international fashion icon and star of E! Entertainment’s “Fashion Police’ Kelly Osbourne as the 2015 “Queen of White Party.”
Osbourne will be officially crowned at a special ceremony happening when she co-hosts the White Carpet arrivals.
Said Sanker, “With her haute couture style and outspoken personality, Kelly is a perfect fit as Queen of White Party. She will be on patrol for any fashion violations, so everyone make sure you’re ‘White Carpet Ready’ when you arrive Saturday night.” Adding, “This will be a weekend to remember for both her and all our White Party attendees!”
“To be crowned Queen of the White Party in a room full of queens is a dream come true,” states HM the Queen Kelly Osbourne. “I’ve been blessed my entire life to be surrounded by members of the LGBT family who support me as I support them. I am beyond thrilled and honored; now let’s dance!”
Things Just Got Easy
White Party has been given a high tech upgrade with “fast track” scanned wristband entry and paperless ticketing, as well as the new White Party smartphone app. This will reduce time in line and provide faster entry to all events. We’re also adding twice the number of bar stations for the fastest possible service
EVENTS
For its all-new Saturday event, White Party will completely take over Wet ‘n’ Wild Palm Springs Water Park, offering the entire 21-acre oasis exclusively for attendees. To make this aquatic experience complete, Sanker will bring in a custom stage and sound system to pump the grooves from DJ Gustavo Scorpio and DJ Grind throughout the park. Complimentary round-trip shuttle service will run continuously from the Renaissance Hotel. Ride all the slides (including the incredible new Flow Rider) or lay out and relax by the wave pool. Reserve one of 30 private poolside cabanas for you and 10 to 20 of your friends to get full view of all the wild festivities. This is White Party 2015’s only event for ages 18 and over and it will sell out.
Get ready to show some skin at the ADDICTED TO WHITE Underwear Party. Presented on Friday night by “Addicted,” from the internationally acclaimed ES Collection, this sexy party will sizzle like never before, fueled by the sounds of DJ Kitty Glitter – direct from down under, along with Spanish DJ and remix producer sensation Dani Toro and South Beach’s musical mastermind, DJ Kidd Madonny!
For those who can’t get enough Aussies, DJ Dan Slater, who blew up after winning the recent Sydney Mardi Gras DJ Spin-Off Competition, will hit the decks poolside at Saturday’s Renaissance Hotel Splash Pool Party to bring his own brand of musical “thunder from down under” along with DJ Casey Alva.
Later that night at the White Party main event, arm yourself for our own special Spanish-American invasion as American hit machine DJ/Producer Chris Cox leads the armada, followed by the beefy Barcelona beats of DJ/Producer Nacho Chapado, in his White Party debut. The evening culminates when Spanish DJ/Producer duo Chus and Ceballos ignite the Palm Springs Convention Center with an explosion of their signature “Iberican Sound.” Like in previous years, rumors are buzzing around about whom Saturday Night’s main event top-secret performer will be this year. No one will know for sure unless you go to the event.
Living DJ legends Ralphi Rosario, Wayne G., and yet another Aussie, Paul Goodyear, stand ready to work their sonic wizardry on Sunday at the Largest Outdoor T Dance in the World! Grammy Award winning Leann Rimes (check out her interview in this issue of The Standard Magazine) will take the stage on Sunday for a performance that should not be missed. Whether you’re out on the dance floor or taking it all in from the top of the world-famous White Party Ferris Wheels, there’s no shortage of eye candy or spectacular views. As the sun sets into evening, all eyes will be on the sky for the legendary T Dance fireworks display, choreographed to an exclusive musical remix by Wayne G.
Celebrating DJ Abel’s 20th anniversary at White Party, get “READY, WILLING & ABEL” for a very special Closing Party, the weekend’s final event. DJ Isaac Escalante – flying in direct from Mexico and fresh off his global tour – gets the action on the dance floor going. Then, as anticipation builds, hold on tight as the man of the hour, DJ Abel, hits the stage dropping a cannonball of infectious grooves and beats to keep the celebration pumping all night long.
As expected, Sanker will unleash some of the most ambitious and mind blowing audiovisual engineering ever conceived. By combining light, sound and state-of-the-art technology together like never before through eight mind-expanding parties over three amazing days! Venues will be transformed with cutting-edge design and spectacular décor. Performances will ignite the stage boasting the most elaborate and innovative production values ever.
The White Party experience is enhanced by the splendor and beauty of Palm Springs, which provides a truly unforgettable desert backdrop at the foot of the mountains. Offering unparalleled convenience, all White Party events are locate
within easy walking distance of each other – just steps away from all major hotels in the heart of beautiful downtown Palm Springs.
About the Man
The MIAMI HERALD dubbed him “the high priest of gay parties.” GENRE MAGAZINE lists him as “Circuit Master.” NEXT MAGAZINE describes him as “the sultan of soirees.” And CIRCUIT NOIZE MAGAZINE simply calls him “the man.” With every accolade, Jeffrey Sanker further solidifies his name as the premier producer of gay nightlife and entertainment.
Jeffrey Sanker is the founder of LA-based White Party Entertainment, Inc. and creator of such signature events as WHITE PARTY PALM SPRINGS; New Year’s Eve celebrations in Los Angeles, Miami & Rio de Janeiro and the One Mighty Party at Orlando’s Gay Days. Sanker has been credited by the MIAMI HERALD as being “the father of the modern gay event party.” Nowhere is this more evident than with Sanker’s trademark extravaganza: White Party Palm Springs, which has evolved into the nation’s largest gay dance music festival, attracting more than 30,000 attendees from every corner of the globe.
Sanker’s passion for parties began during the early eighties in New York City. Working at such legendary locations as Studio 54, Palladium and Private Eyes, he fine-tuned his skills as a promoter and special event producer. He has hosted parties for numerous celebrities over the years.
