So You're Gay and Thinking About Palm Springs

Palm Springs is the closest thing we've found to a fully gay town — and that comes with its own layers.

Our experience

That first-visit feeling is real: you walk into a bar and realize you're not the gay couple at the bar, you're just one of many, and no one blinks. A lot of people moved here after not feeling fully accepted elsewhere, which creates a kind of second-adolescence energy — liberating, joyful, occasionally over the top. We love how easy and welcoming it is. We also think it's fair to say some people are living the party version of themselves more than the grounded one, and that's worth knowing before you arrive.
