February is one of the most vibrant months in the desert, offering a perfect blend of sun-drenched days and a calendar packed with world-class experiences. Our community truly comes alive this month, inviting you to explore the sleek history of Modernism Week, cheer on the Firebirds at the arena, or find inspiration among the masterpieces at the La Quinta Art Celebration.

We’ve rounded up the season's best events to help you experience the unique art and local soul that make life in the Coachella Valley so special.
Step back into the golden age of glamour during this celebration of midcentury modern design. It’s a rare chance to walk through the iconic "Pink Door House" or wander the sleek estates of legends like Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. Whether you’re touring homes from architectural giants like William Cody and Hugh Kaptur or experiencing designer Trina Turk showcasing her latest inspirations, the week feels like a living magazine. Whether you're sipping cocktails at a twilight bus tour or browsing the vintage trailer show, you’ll find yourself falling in love with the timeless style that put Palm Springs on the map.

There is a nostalgic magic to the Date Festival and this year’s "1001 Nights" theme invites you to wander through an Arabian-inspired oasis, where the scent of warm funnel cake mingles with the sweetness of our world-famous date shakes.

And don't forget to catch a performance on the historic stage—it’s community tradition at its most joyful..

There is a sense of unity in the air as thousands of cyclists gather under the desert sun to honor our military, first responders, and veterans. Led by cycling legend Frankie Andreu, this event isn't just about the ride—it’s about the heart. As you pedal through the valley with a choice of seven routes, more than 20 live bands cheer you on from the sidelines, turning the streets into a rolling party. Knowing that every mile helps support local charities makes that finishing medal feel even more meaningful.

For one beautiful weekend, you can be "Greek for a Day" without ever leaving the valley. The air at St. George Greek Orthodox Church becomes thick with the aroma of charcoal-grilled souvlakia and honey-drenched baklava, all handmade from family recipes passed down through generations. Watching the vibrant folk dancers in traditional dress is enough to make anyone want to join in, and the warm, welcoming spirit of the community makes you feel like family the moment you arrive.

Feel the electricity of the desert’s own "Fuego" as the Firebirds take the ice for an action-packed month at Acrisure Arena. February kicks off with Kraken Night, honoring our Seattle NHL affiliate with Kraken-themed jerseys and a collectible luggage tag giveaway. The energy stays high for Winter Games Night, a spirited tribute to the world’s elite snow and ice athletes. Finally, we join together for Cancer Awareness Night, an evening that focuses on hope, community fundraising, and honoring local heroes. Whether you’re cheering for the goals or the powerful stories of resilience, these games bring the heart of the desert to the ice.

Imagine over 1,000 of the world’s most beautiful "automotive marvels" parked across the green lawns of the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. From meticulously restored vintage classics to the sleek curves of modern McLarens and Lamborghinis, this show is a love letter to craftsmanship and history. Beyond the chrome and engines, the event is a powerful community effort to support the Desert Cancer Foundation. It’s a wonderful day of music, food trucks, and family fun, all driven by the desire to help our neighbors in need.

Enjoy the smooth rhythms of soul and jazz at the Cathedral City Community Amphitheater.

It’s an immersive, soulful experience that celebrates unity, culture, and the simple joy of a great melody.

Tucked away just minutes from downtown Palm Springs, the Backstreet Art District is one of our valley’s best-kept secrets.

It is an opportunity to step into the workspaces of nationally recognized artists—like photographer Stephen Baumbach or abstract painter Kevin Goddess—and see exactly where the "magic is made." Whether you’re chatting with a painter over a glass of wine or discovering a one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry, the energy here is wonderfully laid-back and inspiring.
