June 1-August 31    Palm Springs Summer Splash 2008. Celebrate Summer in Palm Springs with Sun, Fun, Great Rates, and a whole series of Special Events!

It's all part of Palm Springs Summer Splash - a thirteen week Summer Celebration designed to put Palm Springs, California on everyone's Summer "To Do" List!

Famous for its Sunny Winter weather, Palm Springs used to slow down for the Summer, but not anymore! The Desert Gay Tourism Guild has worked with area hotels, restaurants, bars, retailers and entertainment Venues to create a vibrant (and varied) line-up of special offers and special events that last throughout the Summer.

There's something (and usually several things) to do every day, and, at night, all roads lead back to the pool for a midnight swim beneath the stars!

So come on! Jump in and join our "Summer Splash!" For more info click here.
