Palm Springs - Flea Market?

We are heading to Palm Springs next week with my in-laws. Someone told them there is a "Flea Market" in downtown PS on Saturdays? I've never heard of it - does anyone know about this? Is there a weekly festivle in downtown PS? Any other tips on unique or not-to-miss adult activities are greatly appreciated! (husband and father-in-law are golfers)
Thanks in advance!

There is "Villagefest" on Thursday nights downtown. Palm Canyon Drive is blocked to traffic and there are vendors, street performers and food.

There is an event every Saturday and Sunday at College of the Desert ("C.O.D.") in Palm Desert that is more of a "swap meet" type of thing. Hope this helps.

if they are planning on golfing, they should book now in order to get an EARLY morning tee time. it will be VERY hot by 9:30 a.m.
the tram offers a deal with the ride up and then dinner. i've heard this is really good and would get you out of the heat during late afternoon.

I would comment that it is not at all "very hot" by 9:30 am at this point. In another month perhaps, or if there is a heat wave. Days have been hovering just under 100 and the nights and mornings have been stellar. I would plan on teeing off by 7:30-8:00 and finishing by noon.
