Village Fest Board Meeting | May 26, 2026

The City of Palm Springs Village Fest Board held a meeting on May 26, 2026, primarily focused on reviewing and approving vendor applications for participation in the upcoming Village Fest event. Various artisans and vendors presented their products, including natural body care items, specialty drinks, handcrafted art, 3D-printed sensory items, and pet treats. The board discussed compliance with vendor rules, particularly the requirement that vendors produce at least 75% of the items they sell. Motions to approve multiple vendors were made and passed unanimously.

No contract awards, RFPs, or budget allocations were discussed. The meeting concluded with plans to address rules and regulations at the next session.
