Pitbull, Shaggy, Ginuwine, and More to Headline Inaugural ‘Party in the Park’ in Gilbert This November
Get ready, Arizona! This November, the East Valley is turning into one massive dance floor.
Gilbert Regional Park will host the debut of Party in the Park on Saturday, November 8, 2025, bringing together an all-star lineup of hitmakers and nostalgia-fueled performers. The brand-new festival, produced by Activated Events (the team behind Boots in the Park, Coastal Country Jam, and The Smoke Show), promises a full day of high-energy performances, local food, art installations, and plenty of ways to keep the party going.
Mr. Worldwide Takes Over the East Valley
Leading the charge is none other than Pitbull, the Miami-born global superstar behind chart-toppers like Timber, Fireball, and Give Me Everything. Fresh off his “Party After Dark Tour,” Pitbull is bringing his signature energy to the Arizona crowd for a night that’s bound to feel like one giant world tour stop.
“Arizona has embraced Boots in the Park and The Smoke Show, and we knew it was time to bring something fresh, fun, and full of energy,” said Steve Thacher, CEO of Activated Events. “Pitbull is the perfect artist to kick things off. Arizona is in for a party it won’t forget!”

Joining Pitbull is a stacked roster of hitmakers who’ve soundtracked countless playlists and dance floors over the years:
Shaggy (It Wasn’t Me, Angel)
Ginuwine (Pony, Differences)
Ying Yang Twins (Salt Shaker, Get Low)
Baby Bash (Suga Suga, Cyclone)
MIMS (This Is Why I’m Hot)
Organizers hint there are “more exciting additions to come,” meaning this lineup is only going to get bigger.
