My last article was about how event tourism, starting with the Coachella Music and Arts Festival and Stagecoach Country Music Festival, put the Palm Springs area back on the map.  It really caused the Palm Springs tourism renaissance.

Coincidentally, a new event/festival was just announced that sounds rather interesting.  Like Coachella and Stagecoach, there is a large music element to the event.  Like Palm Springs, its all about the retro and pool parties.  The event is called "Vintage Vibe", and it takes place October 20 - 22 2017.    Here is how the event promoters describe it:

Set in glamorous Palm Springs, California, famed getaway destination of the icons of Old Hollywood, VintageVibe FESTIVAL is a celebration of the evolution of American style and pop culture, which we consider anything pre-1999. The 60k square foot indoor (air-conditioned) marketplace will include vendors who not only represent eras gone by, but also new and innovative vendors who nod to the stylings of yesteryear in their products and design. The show will also feature several renowned headliners that have the "VintageVibe" such as Shannon and The Clams, Generationals, Nick Waterhouse, Best Coast, and others each night of the 3-day festival.

  1. This sounds interesting! I love attending such events, I am going to one like this tomorrow in an event space San Francisco. I will try to share pictures online on my blog. I have just started a new blog, so I do have a craze of putting anything and everything there.
