Danny Wimmer Presents

Danny Wimmer Presents (DWP) is an independent hospitality and live entertainment company based in Los Angeles, California, that produces rock, metal, americana and country music festivals in the U.S. Its festivals combine headline artists with creative production and curated local cuisine and culture. The company's flagship events include Aftershock, Bourbon & Beyond, GoldenSky Festival, Inkcarceration, Louder Than Life, Sonic Temple Art & Music Festival and Welcome To Rockville. Genre-focused festivals of this kind depend on a promoter's ability to secure headline acts and manage large outdoor sites, which places talent relationships and operations at the center of the business.

Beyond its own events, DWP offers integrated services to other operators, including talent buying for casinos, festivals and corporate events, along with marketing, ticketing strategy and customer service support. It also arranges brand sponsorships and onsite activations, supports event and venue operations with CAD planning, safety advisement and security management, and advises on new venue development and site selection. Its casino and venue partners include Foxwoods Resort Casino, Sahara Las Vegas, Thunder Valley Casino Resort and Tulalip Resort Casino, as well as venues such as Mercedes-Benz Amphitheater and Ocean Center Daytona Beach. Casinos and regional venues often contract outside booking specialists rather than maintaining full in-house entertainment programming teams.

Danny Wimmer Presents has operated for more than 19 years and aims to deliver entertainment experiences for fans, artists, sponsors, partners and host cities. Through the DWP Foundation, it supports local charities in the communities where its festivals take place and reports more than $2,500,000 donated to charity. Large festivals generally rely on cooperative relationships with their host cities, which makes local community engagement a common priority for promoters.
