A new 'dream team' takes the helm at legendary queer women's event The Dinah
""We came up with the idea that we would make an amazing dream team," Garcia says."
""I hit the jackpot with [Barkow] as a partner. She is the production queen,""
""[Garcia's] professionalism was amazing, and she was just so friendly and nice," Barkow says."
The Dinah, an annual sapphic event in Palm Springs, has been acquired by BellaRose Productions, founded by longtime team members Bella Barkow and Rose Garcia. Barkow advanced from pool party stage manager to operations manager and has produced large-scale queer events. Garcia leads a real estate firm and has experience as an emcee and reality TV personality. The new ownership secured The Dinah for September 30–October 4, ensuring the event will proceed this year and avoiding a potential 2026 hiatus. The festival will continue to feature women-centric pool parties, entertainment, and an inclusive atmosphere welcoming queer, straight, transgender, and nonbinary attendees.
