Where to Party With Your Bride Tribe in Palm Springs

Think Palm Springs is all pool floats, rosé and early bedtimes? Think again, babe. The desert nightlife scene is officially saying, we’re just getting started.

While Palm Springs will forever be iconic for poolside lounging and drag brunches, there’s a legit club culture happening after dark. So grab your girls, put on the tiny dress, the giant earrings and the shoes you swear you can dance in, because SQUAD has your late-night itinerary covered.

Reforma

Reforma is where you’ll find your desert besties dancing into the night. Expect DJs, special guests and a crowd that came to actually dance.

With names like Mike Sherm and DJ DTOMP popping up, plus events such as R&B Sundays, Reforma is giving “we said one drink” and somehow it’s 1 a.m.

BART Lounge

BART is where the retro girlies come to play. The themed nights are the main event, with everything from Hello Kitty Night and EMO Night to Girlie Pop Party.

And when drag shows, like Slumber Party by Creatures of Night hosted by Natasha Backwards, hit the calendar? Add to itinerary immediately.

They’ve even served up Pokémon Champions Double Battle and Latina Night. Basically, BART understands the assignment.

Hunters

Hunters Palm Springs

Ready for a little more chaos? Hunters brings drag bingo on Wednesdays, desert DJs, Yacht Rock Brunch and go-go dancers keeping the party going late.

Bring some dollar bills, tip your dancers and keep it classy, babes. The ultimate Palm Springs nightlife.

Because the perfect Palm Springs girls’ trip doesn’t end when the sun goes down. That’s when the real fun begins.
