Arenas Road Β· 224 E Arenas Rd, Palm Springs, CA 92262
Palm Springs' first gay bar, open since 1991, and still the place to start an evening. It's a talk-to-your-neighbor kind of room with themed karaoke and live shows, and the regulars are friendly to newcomers.
Arenas Road Β· 302 E Arenas Rd, Palm Springs, CA 92262
The biggest room on Arenas, open from morning until 2am. Come for the long afternoon happy hour and ballgames on the screens, then stay as the dance floor fills up later.
Arenas Road Β· 315 E Arenas Rd, Palm Springs, CA 92262
A low-key cocktail bar with a real kitchen and a deep whiskey list. There's no dance floor, so it's a good spot for dinner and conversation before a night on Arenas.
Warm Sands Β· 600 E Sunny Dunes Rd, Palm Springs, CA 92264
A dim, friendly leather and bear dive bar away from the downtown bustle. Weeknights have themed gear nights, and during Leather Pride its parking lot hosts the Dark Alley party.
