The festival capital of the southwest always has something going on.

Events Festivals Outdoors Nature Desert

It’s known as “The City of Festivals,” and for good reason – in addition to being home to the annual Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and Stagecoach Festival, two of the most popular music events in the world, Indio also hosts the annual Southwest Arts Festival, the Cabazon Indian National Pow Wow, the Palm Springs Kennel Club’s annual dog show, and many more. Needless to say, it’s a great community for folks who enjoy a lot of activity, but it’s also perfect for adventurous types who love the outdoors: Joshua Tree National Park, Mt. San Jacinto, and Anza-Borrego are all just a short drive away.
