Here are all of the starry moments that couldn’t be caught on the livestream.

In the evening, Justin Bieber and wife Hailey bought out the Red Bull Mirage venue on the festival grounds to throw a private party with an A-list guest list including Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Tate McRae, Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire. The intimate party began around midnight, and Justin arrived around 1:30 a.m, says an insider.

Festival performer Yeat was also in attendance, and event napkins read, “Bieber x Yeat.”

Hailey curated a menu of custom cocktails, per the insider, including Hailey’s Glazed Margarita, BELLini mixed with Red Bull Summer Edition and SKYBEAM Red Bull vodka. Nobu, a pop-up omakase experience located within the Red Bull Mirage curated by world-renowned Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, served its signature flavors.

The soirée wrapped around 2 a.m., when the festival grounds closed for the night.

Revolve Festival took over a new location in Thermal, Calif. Guests enjoyed live performances from Lil Wayne, Tyga and special guest Cardi B, as well as immersive brand activations. Early during the party, Christina Milian walked through the grounds with her daughter Violet, and Normani was seen sitting in a VIP section near the stage holding a mini fan to her face.

Alix Earle arrived just after 4 p.m. with her sister Ashtin and stopped by the activation for her sparkling margarita brand SipMARGS. Around 4:30 p.m., Julia Fox was seen walking through the party with a group of friends.

At 5:19 pm, Charli D’Amelio said hi to Ariana Greenblatt in the VIP table area. They hugged, and Ariana introduced her friend, DJ Rio Amor. Cardi B took the stage a little before 6 p.m. with a large group of influencers joining behind her on stage. As soon as she got out on stage, she announced to the crowd she was taking off her heels.

Cardi then danced along as the DJ played her hits including “I Like It” and “Bodak Yellow,” stopping at several points to spray her Whipshots into the mouths of fans in the crowd.

At one point, Cardi said she had to stop for a moment because of her asthma. At another, the crowd chanted “Go Cardi” as Cardi danced.

Throughout the performances, sisters Charli and Dixie D’Amelio danced with their friends at a VIP table together. Lil Wayne took the stage around 6:30 p.m., and Wiz Khalifa served as his hype man, standing on a raised platform in the middle of the crowd and rapping along to every song.

In Palm Springs, Interscope and Capitol returned for their annual Coachella celebration this year, with a private event attended by Beabadoobee, Cara Delevingne and Reneé Rapp.

Also during the day, Sonic Desert returned for its third consecutive year. The invitation-only event drew Summer House star Kyle Cooke and actor Armani Jackson.

On the festival grounds, Kylie Jenner and boyfriend Timothée Chalamet hung out together with friends.

“They were in a great mood,” says a source. “Drinking and dancing with friends at several shows including Charli xcx and Billie Eilish. They were hand-in-hand, smiling and kissing.”

Also on the festival grounds, the Aperol Piazza hosted two trivia winners for a surprise meet and greet with Charli xcx around 4:30 p.m. Charli mentioned she was excited to perform at the festival.

A stacked lineup of celeb guests swarmed to watch Travis Scott’s midnight set at the Main Stage. Lori Harvey, the Biebers, Tate McRae and The Kid LAROI walked single file to the exclusive artists section at around 11:45 p.m.

During the set, Scott’s daughter Stormi, whom he shares with Kylie Jenner, watched her dad perform from someone’s shoulders.

Neon Carnival kept the party going after hours when it returned for its fourteenth year at the Desert International Horse Park in Thermal.
