The last posting on this street fair was in '02 - anyone's opinion on this event is requested...
thanks!
d

and mine was after September 2005

It's a street fair with somewhat unusual items, late at night, what else is there to do

the whole 7-towns valley is there, so many teenagers! where are they all coming from??

everything is opened during the fair: shops, restaurants. Don't go too early.

Village Fest is on Thursdays from 6-10 p.m. In season, a large stretch of Palm Canyon Drive is closed between Alejo and Ramon Road. A Farmer's Market is usually located at the north end. There are a variety of booths offering food, crafts, entertainment, etc. There are some interesting items you may not find in stores, like handmade glass, wood carvings, etc.

I am not sure it has changed much since the 2002. If anything, it has more character every year.

No question it has been tagged as a hangout for local teenagers, but I can't recall any problems as a result.

It's well worth a walk.

Oh---and for the record, there are 9 cities in the Coachella Valley--not 7.

PSL

which 2 have I missed? :-?

Coachella and Desert Hot Springs!

What time of year is Village Fest?

It was going on about two weeks ago when we were out there on a Thursday and it is fun to walk around and check out all the booths. I think it runs every Thurs. this time of year.

Absolutely year-round, absolutely great. Well worth a spin.

It's worth it if you are already in PS, but it's really just another "street fair" so don't feel like you have to add a night or go out of your way to see it.
