We had contracted this mariachi band for our daughter's quinceañera nearly six months prior to the…read moreevent. Regrettably, they canceled and breached our contract just three hours before the scheduled performance. This caused significant stress and disappointment. We cannot recommend their services. While our payment was refunded 48 hours later, their conduct was highly unprofessional. This is why I wrote this review because I wouldn't want anyone else to go through this experience. Habíamos contratado a esta banda de mariachis para la quinceañera de nuestra hija casi seis meses antes del evento. Lamentablemente, cancelaron e incumplieron nuestro contrato solo tres horas antes de la presentación programada. Esto causó un estrés y una decepción significativos. No podemos recomendar sus servicios. Aunque nuestro pago fue reembolsado 48 horas después, su conducta fue muy poco profesional.

The Desert Winds Freedom Band (DWFB) is a feast of both sight and sound. They play a wide…read morerepertoire of modern music and some classical. Each concert has a theme, such as the recent "Portrait of America" program. A very large video screen includes custom videos that accompany the music. All the band members are volunteers. A subgroup is the Jazz Band. The entire group makes up the Symphonic Band. With more than 80 performers, the sound is rich and immersive. Typically, a band doesn't have string sections. The different instruments provide the full tapestry of music. For example, the clarinets carry the music that might be played by the violin section in an orchestra. An important exception is that the Jazz Band usually has bass and guitar performers. Most concerts are presented at the Temple Isaiah in Palm Springs. The DWFB has also performed holiday music outdoors at the plaza in front of the Rowan Hotel in Palm Springs. In 2024, they awarded eight $1,000 college scholarships to Coachella Valley HS grads majoring in music. Another aspect of their school outreach is inviting guest composers who work with school music classes before performing at one of the regular concerts. 5-stars for repertoire/artistic direction. 5-stars for outstanding and dynamic concerts. 5-stars for community and school work.

Fantastic Pre-Season Soccer in Palm Desert…read more - - - - - - - - February, 2026 Visit We visited Palm Desert to see our St. Louis CITY Soccer Club (SC) play Austin in pre-season MLS soccer at the Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament, and we had a GREAT TIME!! The Coachella Valley Invitational Tournament is pre-season soccer for men (MLS) and women (NWSL), played at the Empire Polo Club in February each year. We have visited Palm Desert for many years, and have visited before and after the tournament the past couple years, but have missed attending; thankfully schedules aligned this year. After watching previous games on YouTube, this year we got to be there in person! The tournament's site offers some challenges on finding General Admission tickets; after some time we found that the Los Angeles Galaxy (LAG) were managing the tickets; a quick call with Miguel, who was very helpful, and we soon had our tickets in the app ready to be there for the soccer. Thanks, Miguel!! Parking for soccer was easy to find based on the online map and following the signs. For food, under the semi-permanent tent they have food trucks and an open bar. Here is little shade on the fields; some palm trees in the corners offer a place to cool off; otherwise if the skies are clear, the Palm Desert sun will provide copious doses of Vitamin D to lift your spirits. DJ Alf Alpha provided dance tubes all day and there were various soccer skills for fans to participate in. Even when the weather is not as nice as it was for us, this is still a great facility, with low humidity. Fun fact... the Salton Sea is the second lowest point in the US, after Badwater Basin / Death Valley; if I calculated correctly, the Empire Polo Club elevation is 5-20 feet. Thank you to everyone who makes the Coachella Valley Invitational possible! As Major League Soccer transitions its season to match the rest of the world, and to spread across two years, but no soccer in cold Jan/Fen nor hot July/Aug, we hope you'll continue the tournament as a mid-season break tourney. ----- ----- -----

The Polo Club is a big and varied place. They do actually have polo fields there. AND, they also…read morehave other areas. Today I was there for the soccer invitationals. I've been for others things. The dog show, for instance. It's a nice outdoor space. There are areas that are very rich in foliage and give plenty of shade. The staff has always been nice and helpful, from the parking people to the security and cashiers, I've never have anyone be ambivalent. Food is, well, epic expensive. If you plan to spend $30 on food and $10 on drinks, you can get by. Beer was not outrageous though, which was a surprise. I definitely recommend going. Parking has always been easy. Some events it's free parking, others it costs, so plan ahead.

We used this vendor for my wedding and let me just say... it was absolutely amazing!! I knew what…read moretypes of color flowers I wanted for my wedding, but I didn't know what type of flower arrangement I wanted- the team offered me different options that they had and showed me all the things they could do with their inventory in alignment with my color theme. I was also in shock with the quality of faux flowers they used! They honestly looked better than real flower arrangement and I didn't stress about pedals falling or breaking off. The day of the wedding, they showed up, brought all their flower arrangements, and set up so fast. Not to mention, they quite literally made my wedding dream come true!! They even moved even more arrangements to the reception (from the ceremony) themselves!! WHATTTT?? We used some of their other flowers at the reception, but when they added more flowers, it made it look even more dreamy and amazing. I would 100% recommend this company for any events where they would want flowers at their events. They did an amazing job and I will be booking with they again!
