With beautiful views of the mountains and the famous Arenas Strip, the front bar is perfect for relaxing with friends and a more casual drink.

Hunters Palm Springs

Hunters is a long-running gay club that's popular with a mostly male crowd. It's a stylish space where DJs provide your favourite music and there are regular drinks specials to keep you going as well as a daily happy hour. Cocktails are affordable and great quality so you can relax with new friends and truly enjoy your night in this unique and open space.

Toucans Tiki Lounge

This quirky and attitude free space hosts the city's longest continuously running drag show, as well as weekly themed nights and the Toucans Live on Stage event. Themes range from Latin Fever Monday to Neon Thursday, and you'll find some amazing talent in cabaret and performance taking the stage. Toucans' lively atmosphere saw it voted "The Desert's Number One Gay Bar", and for decades it's been a favourite hangout for cocktail-loving locals and tourists looking for world class drag.

Streetbar

Streetbar is known as one of friendliest gay bars in the city. Anyone can be a performer here, or simply sit back and enjoy quality entertainment paired with all the classic cocktails. There's always a show going on, plus regular karaoke so anyone can join in and make the most of the lively atmosphere. This where everyone gathers and gets involved in the Palm Springs gay scene, and the city's friendliest bartenders will make sure you enjoy yourself.

Tool Shed

Tool Shed is a leather and levi bar that's a lot more rustic than the modern gay bars on the scene. It's down to earth with equally unpretentious patrons, and a solid option for slightly older butch gays and their admirers to hang out. Chat up guys at the bar, or sit back and enjoy DJs, go-go dancers, weekly bingo, and a friendly atmosphere. Take advantage of a daily happy hour with an exceptionally cruisey crowd.

RetroRoom Lounge

RetroRoom's intimate atmosphere is slightly old-school but popular with a mixed crowd. If you want to escape the crowds of Palm Canyon or Arenas, you can come relax here and enjoy a handcrafted quality cocktail along with lounge style entertainment. Daily happy hours, regular karaoke, and 70's and 80's dance music nights keep people coming back. Due to Covid-19, RetroRoom has temporarily rebranded as an art bar, selling work by local artists.
