Palm Springs, CA (The Hollywood Times) 3/28/26 – Get ready to step back in time and sip something fabulous, because Roxanna Ward is bringing her signature style, soulful piano, and irresistible charm to Desert Legends 2026 for an unforgettable Speakeasy Night experience.
Details at the Hotel Zoso Lobby on opening night!
Taking place Thursday, April 2 from 7–9 PM at the chic Hotel Zoso, this intimate kickoff event sets the tone for a weekend of connection, music, and celebration at Palm Springs’ premier women’s 40+ getaway.
In her exclusive Zoom conversation with The Hollywood Times, Roxanna Ward shared her excitement about creating a unique, immersive atmosphere that blends vintage glamour with heartfelt musical storytelling.
“I love creating spaces where people can relax, connect, and feel something,” Ward shared. “This isn’t just a performance, it’s an experience.”
Guests will be transported into a swanky, speakeasy-inspired lounge, where Roxanna’s piano stylings and rich vocals create the perfect backdrop for mingling, laughter, and new friendships. Whether you’re sipping whiskey, wine, or a signature cocktail, the evening promises to feel both elevated and effortlessly fun.
Roxanna Ward is no stranger to captivating audiences. Known for her versatility as a musician, comedian, and entertainer, she brings a rare authenticity to the stage, effortlessly blending humor, emotion, and musical talent.
During our conversation, Ward emphasized the importance of connection, something that aligns perfectly with the mission of Desert Legends.
“Music is the bridge,” she said. “It brings people together in a way nothing else can.”
(Our exclusive interview will be posted shortly.)
That spirit of connection is at the heart of Desert Legends, a four-day celebration designed for women 40+ to come together through shared experiences, laughter, and meaningful moments.
As co-producer of Desert Legends, I can confidently say that Roxanna Ward’s Speakeasy Night is the perfect way to begin the weekend. It’s intimate, stylish, and full of personality, just like the incredible community we are bringing together.
From this elegant opening night to a full lineup of comedy, live music, poolside fun, and wellness experiences, Desert Legends 2026 promises to be bigger and more vibrant than ever.
But it all begins here, with a piano, a cocktail, and a room full of possibility.
