80th and 40th BDs in May
Hi,
Six of us are staying for five nights in May and are looking for a drag brunch or bingo. Unfortunately, we won't be there on the weekend. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
Palm Springs is known for its lively LGBTQ+ scene and fun entertainment options, including drag shows and themed bingo. While many drag brunches and bingo events occur on weekends, there are still options during weekdays in May, especially in the downtown and midtown areas.
Drag Brunch Options (Weekdays)
- Chill Bar & Restaurant: Some midweek lunch events occasionally feature drag performers. Check their weekly schedule to see if your dates align.
- Tropicale Palm Springs: Known for hosting drag brunches or performances; midweek shows may be available by reservation.
- Tramp Stamp Grille: A local LGBTQ+ hotspot where drag events sometimes occur during weekdays. It's best to call ahead and confirm dates.
Bingo and Game Nights
- The Purple Room: This iconic venue sometimes hosts themed game nights or interactive events on weekdays, check their calendar.
- Village Pub or local bars: Several Palm Springs bars host bingo nights, trivia, or interactive evenings during weekdays, often with small prizes and a festive atmosphere.
- Special Event Booking: If your group is flexible, some venues will host private bingo or drag performances during weekdays for a group, especially for birthdays.
Additional Tips
- Since your trip is in May, the weather will be warm but comfortable, so outdoor venues with patio seating are enjoyable for daytime brunches.
- Make reservations where possible; weekday events may have limited seating or require advance notice for private bookings.
- Check local listings and Palm Springs visitor guides online for up-to-date weekday entertainment schedules.
With some planning, you should be able to enjoy a festive drag brunch or bingo celebration for the 40th and 80th birthdays during the week, even outside the weekend crowd.
