SSBD 2026 IS 90% SOLD OUT 🏝️

And no this isn’t just a marketing tactic…We’re getting VERY close to a full beach.

We intentionally cap SSBD at 7,500 people. Keeping it small is part of what makes it special, and at 90% sold out, that means only about 750 spots remain.

At the rate tickets are moving, we fully expect to sell out again in 2026.

Swipe to see what’s officially gone, what’s almost gone, and what’s still available 👀

✨ LIMITLESS: Only 5 passes left!!!
⛺ 80×80 Group Camping: SOLD OUT
⛺ 40×40 Group Camping: 3 sites left!!!!
🛏️ Glamping: Almost SOLD OUT
🚐 RV with hookups: SOLD OUT
🚐 RV without hookups: Still available

If you’ve been talking about coming, waiting on your crew, or telling yourself you’ll grab a ticket “later,” now’s the time to get the group chat moving and lock in your weekend.

Less than two weeks until we’re back on the beach. About 750 more people get to be part of it.
See you at Lake Perris 🌴💃🕺

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: LEE REYNOLDS 🫶🏼

From BMX ramps to SoCal warehouses, Lee Reynolds has been part of the culture for decades.

He started collecting records at 10, picked up his first BMX at 11, moved to San Diego in ’88, and by ’92 was DJing and hosting chill-out rooms at early raves and warehouse parties.

Fast forward 34 years and Papa Lee has released dozens of records, played thousands of events around the world, and spent 14 years touring with the crew he helped co-found, Desert Hearts.

His sets pull from everywhere, always eclectic, always extended, always with plenty of room to get lost in the music.

And now, he’s bringing all of that history, heart and dancefloor energy to the little festival that could. 🌞

Welcome back to SSBD, Papa Lee. 🦋
