Desert Smash 2026: P!NK, Serena Williams, and $1.5M in One Night
Desert Smash 2026 wasn't just another celebrity tennis event — it was a masterclass in what happens when entertainment meets purpose. With P!NK headlining the evening concert and Serena Williams returning as host, the event raised over $1.5 million in a single night for the fight against domestic violence.
Hello Good club member Ryan Macaulay has been producing Desert Smash for 17 consecutive years, making it one of the longest-running celebrity charity events in the country. Carson Ingle joined the team in 2018, providing brand consulting and design that helped elevate the event to new heights.
This year's edition featured a star-studded lineup that included professional tennis players, Hollywood celebrities, and music icons. The format — mixing competitive tennis with entertainment and fundraising — has proven to be an irresistible combination for high-net-worth donors and media alike.
The $1.5 million raised will directly support the Yentude Price Foundation's work in combating domestic violence. But the impact extends far beyond the dollars — the media coverage alone generated an estimated 50 million impressions, bringing critical awareness to a cause that affects millions.
Desert Smash is a perfect example of what Hello Good does best: bringing together the right people, the right cause, and the right creative vision to create something that's greater than the sum of its parts.
