Get some sun, swim, gamble, golf, play tennis or just relax in the beautiful Palm Springs resort climate. The Coachella Valley will be “in season” and the dry, balmy winter temperatures average in the sunny 70s everyday. You may enjoy renting a motorcycle or bicycle to spend some creative thinking time exploring the gorgeous desert surroundings. Or take a tram to the snow above 8,500 feet for a great restaurant meal or some cross-country skiing. Shop or dine on Palm Canyon Drive’s “Walk Of The Stars” or El Paseo, this area’s “Rodeo Drive”. Visit the Botanical Gardens or the Living Desert Zoo; see antique planes at the Air Museum or take a Celebrity Tour to ponder the lives of legendary entertainers like Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Dinah Shore and Bob Hope, who first brought their musical and movie star lifestyles to the Valley.

You will never forget your Coachella Valley Songwriter’s Experience.
