Palm Springs VillageFest

Destinations

A desert street fair with flair

Every Thursday, downtown Palm Springs transforms into a pedestrian promenade of local art, music, food, and handmade goods.

VillageFest takes place in downtown Palm Springs on Palm Canyon Drive every Thursday night. The street is closed to vehicular traffic. As a result, it is transformed into a festive, pedestrian street fair.

Insider Insight

For an ultra-local experience, look for desert-grown dates and handmade midcentury homeware. Stay late—the street musicians get bolder, and the crowd more colorful, after 9pm.

Thursday nights, reinvented.
