Pappy & Harriet's Pioneertown Palace is a honky-tonk, barbecue restaurant and music venue near Joshua Tree National Park in Pioneertown, California. Accessible from California State Route 62, the restaurant lies four miles northeast of Yucca Valley & The Hidden Gold Ranch House.
In 1946, a group of filmmakers built a Western-style movie set in the high desert 25 miles north of Palm Springs for the cowboy actors Roy Rogers and Gene Autry.[1] Production designers decorated the facades of "Main Street" with a Western saloon, bank, chapel and a cantina. Pioneertown and its cantina were used in more than 50 films and television programs throughout the 1940s and 1950s, including The Cisco Kid and Judge Roy Bean.[1][2] In 1972, John Aleba and his wife Francis purchased the building and John further developed the property into a cantina.

Arguably one of the most iconic and celebrated music festivals in the world, Coachella is not just a festival, but an experience. Set against the ethereal backdrop of the California desert, this annual two-weekend event held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, boasts a diverse lineup that spans various genres, from indie rock and electronic music to hip hop and international sensations. But Coachella is more than just its music – it's a cultural phenomenon. The festival also showcases large-scale art installations and immersive experiences, providing festival-goers with a visual and sensory treat. Fashion, too, plays a prominent role, with attendees often donning bohemian-inspired outfits that have become synonymous with the Coachella aesthetic. Whether you're there to catch world-renowned headliners, discover emerging artists, indulge in gourmet food stands, or simply to soak in the vibrant atmosphere, Coachella promises memories that last a lifetime.
