MANILA, Philippines — Fresh off their Coachella debut, BINI made an appearance at Nylon House in the Desert, mingling with global artists and celebrities at one of the festival’s high-profile afterparties in Coachella Valley.
The group attended the event just hours after their performance at Coachella, where they made history as the first all-Filipino act to take the stage.
Held at the Desert International Horse Park, the return of Nylon House drew a star-studded crowd, including members of global girl group Katseye, as well as artists and personalities such as Rauw Alejandro, Big Sean and Rachel Zoe.
Also spotted were Olivia Holt, Damson Idris, NAV, Rich The Kid, Ariana Maddix, Rei Ami, Karrueche Tran, Michael Evans Behling, Ella Balinska, Kenzie Ziegler, Amber Rose, Chloe Cherry, Evan Ross, Montana Tucker, Kendall Washington, Andreina Santos, Madison Pettis, Gabi Moura, Brandon Edelman, Tiffany Baira, Kelly Berglund, Adam Sevani, Noah Fearnley, Shanina Shaik, Sheynnis Palacios, among many others.
Presented by Matrix, the event served as an unofficial kickoff to the festival’s celebrations, featuring a high-energy DJ set by Diplo and HUGEL, who performed back-to-back sets for guests.
This year’s theme, “Nocturna,” transformed the desert venue into an after-dark, fashion-driven experience inspired by moonlit rituals and instinct. The immersive setting blended music, movement and style, with curated lounges and brand activations throughout the venue.
Guests explored interactive experiences from participating brands, including beauty and lifestyle installations, product showcases and lounge spaces designed for relaxation between performances.
“What we’re building with Nylon — across membership, events, and a community rooted in music and culture — really comes to life in moments like Nocturna,” said Bryan Goldberg in a press statement.
“We turned the desert into something special after dark, but more importantly, you can feel how much the Nylon ecosystem is growing every time we activate,” Goldberg added.
BINI’s appearance at the afterparty capped a milestone day for the group, following their 45-minute Coachella set that featured Tagalog songs, Filipino-inspired fashion and high-energy choreography.
Also present at the festival and afterparty was Sophia Laforteza, a member of Katseye, who performed on the Sahara stage.
BINI is set to return for Coachella’s second weekend on April 17 (April 18 in the Philippines) as they continue a series of international appearances following their debut.
The group was named a Global Force awardee at Billboard Women in Music, where they will be honored alongside artists including Kehlani, Tate McRae and Zara Larsson on April 29 at the Hollywood Palladium.
In addition, the group is scheduled to appear at the Grammy Museum Global Spin Live on April 21.
