Coachella Valley is perfect combination of intimate small town friendliness and chic urban sensibility. Music fans are treated every year to the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and Stagecoach Music Festival which are renowned for their cutting edge lineups. Tennis fans gather at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden for the PNB Paribas Open. Golf fans can enjoy playing golf at one of the more than 125 local golf courses as well as watch the PGA + LPGA events.
