Palm Springs Pride 2023 Drag Now Drag Forever Poster Trevor Wayne

Every time I drive to Acrisure Arena, I think about how we in Palm Springs proper narrowly escaped having the stadium downtown. The drive for me is a short 30 minutes door to parking lot. And it is becoming “shorter” in my mind as I attend more events.

So Friday’s Pride Night with the Coachella Valley Firebirds will be my second trek there in a week, having seen The Eagles and Steely Dan. And it’s a drive I’ll happily make knowing that thousands of autos are not clogging the arteries of our humble burg.

There are still tickets available for tonight’s game – including the $99 package including a pre-game drag show.  And speaking of humble, look for our KGAY award-winning morning host John Taylor riding the Zamboni in between the 2nd and 3rd innings – err periods.

Del Shores’ Sordid Lives

Palm Canyon Theatre presents Del Shores’ Sordid Lives playing from January 19–28. The playwright himself, Del Shores will be in attendance on Saturday, January 20 doing a Q&A with the entire cast after the show. When Peggy, a good Christian woman, hits her head on the sink and bleeds to death after tripping over her lover’s wooden legs in a motel room, three generations of a family gather in a small Texas town for her funeral. The sad, hilarious truth of their “sordid lives” erupts in this cult classic, a black comedy about white trash. Get tickets

Agua Caliente Cultural Museum

With clouds and a chance of rain in the forecast for this weekend, it’s a great time to visit one of the newest and finest attractions in the Coachella Valley, the Agua Caliente Cultural Museum in downtown Palm Springs, open Tuesday–Sunday from 10 am–5 pm. Dedicated to the history and culture of the Agua Caliente People, the nearly 10,000-square-foot Permanent Gallery is divided into five exhibition areas that each offer a unique piece of the Agua Caliente story, from legendary beginnings to modern times. More info
