The Greater Palm Springs is famous for its restaurants, nightclubs, bars and it’s farmer’s markets. Every Thursday night the Palm Springs Farmer’s Market draws 1000’s of visitors.
Farmer’s Markets: These Coachella Valley farmers markets are open, and local purveyors have set up shop outdoors in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and La Quinta. Each of the markets features live music, a friendly information booth, and vendors from a variety of certified organic offerings — food, gifts, and flowers. With the holiday season upon us, farmers markets are the perfect place to shop for items to serve at home and a great place to buy unique gifts for your friends and loved ones.

Weekend jaunts to the desert are an Angeleno’s rite of passage. Sometimes they’re planned, other times it’s just on a whim: “Let’s get out of town. Now.” Fall and winter are great times to take in the area’s sites and indulge in leisurely spa treatments, while spring brings that craziness that is festival season with Coachella and Stagecoach. But thanks to Palm Spring’s constantly evolving food scene, any time is right to explore the city’s many great places to eat and drink.
Some of the culinary push in Palm Springs comes from a hotel resurgence, which only boosts the culinary options; after all, with hotels come restaurants and bars vying to become the next hot spot. Look for new offerings at several places around town, including at the luxe Arrive in the hip Uptown Design District; at L’Horizon Hotel, a fabulous refurbished 1950s icon that reopened with all the glamour one would expect from designer Steve Hermann; and at the tony Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage, which has some of the best service and best views in the valley, among others.
