On the evening of Saturday, April 15th, iconic cognac House Rémy Martin teamed up with Amazon Music and popular reggae and hip-hop DJs Donavan’s Yard to host an exclusive Coachella after party. The party was held on Laguna Seca Estates, just minutes from the action of Coachella and featured top tier talent, including PinkPantheress, who treated guests to a surprise performance. The exclusive evening celebrates Rémy Martin and cognac’s long connection to music during one of music’s biggest weekends, Coachella.

Rémy Martin has always championed the connections between music and cognac: two cultures at the center of joyful celebrations that constantly honor their heritage, pass on their savoir-faire, and bring people together to create timeless memories. Through various campaigns and celebrations, Rémy Martin has supported the creativity, passion and dedication to excellence that can be seen through the work of the talented musicians they have teamed up with throughout the years. From their work to launch initiatives like "Ground's Melody," a two-part content series which revealed the parallels between music and Rémy Martin Cognac, and their long-standing partnership with the multi–Grammy award winning musical artist Usher championing Teaming up for Excellence, to most recently the third and final installment of Rémy Martin VSOP Mixtape Limited Edition, Rémy Martin has been dedicated to celebrating music; a culture rooted in excellence. The program culminates this year during one of music’s biggest milestones, the 50th anniversary of hip-hop.




During the exclusive evening’s festivities, guests were treated to a private concert by the group Donavan’s Yard, ahead of their Coachella performance taking place the next day. Guests continued to mingle throughout the night while sipping on the brand’s iconic cocktail, The Rémy Ginger, and custom cocktails, The Marley Marl and The Spinderella, which celebrate a few of the historic Mixtape DJs who are honored in Rémy Martin’s Mixtape Volume 3 campaign.
