First Friday on El Paseo

Celebrate the beginning of each month in Palm Desert on El Paseo with Art, Music, and Classic Cars!

First Fridays on El Paseo is a wondrous event that is free to participate in all afternoon long! Take a self-guided tour of all the art galleries that El Paseo has to offer and take glamorous selfies with the wall murals along the way through the ArtWalk El Paseo.

Keep the sights for sore eyes going with El Paseo Cruise Night. A classic car show and casual cruise starts atop the Gardens on El Paseo parking structure where the cars and drivers gather before taking to the street around 4:30 p.m.

Need a break from all the amazing sights El Paseo has to offer? Rest your eyes for a bit and enjoy the musical performance of Whitney Lyman on the Center Lawn of The Gardens on El Paseo beginning at 3:30 p.m.

Don’t miss February’s special event! Everyone is also invited to celebrate the official debut of the new biennial El Paseo Sculpture exhibition and meet some of the artists during a dedication ceremony at The Gardens on El Paseo, at 4 p.m. If you cannot contain your excitement until then, feel free to go to the City of Palm Desert’s website. On the Public Art page of the website you’ll find a link that will take you on a virtual tour of this renowned sculpture exhibition!
