Thursday Night Village Fest
Every Thursday evening, downtown Palm Springs transforms into a vibrant pedestrian street fair known as VillageFest. This iconic event features over 200 booths offering a diverse mix of handcrafted goods, eclectic art, unique food, and more. It's the perfect spot to enjoy live entertainment, explore local vendors, soak in the festive atmosphere, and take home some quirky souvenirs. Open 6-10pm. We suggest heading downtown after the welcome party concludes. 1.2 mile walk or drive from Palm Canyon Swim & Social.
