We are also featuring Jardesca California Aperitiva wines. Colony 29 is located at 147 S. Tahquitz Drive near the ends of W. Arenas Rd. and W. Baristo Rd. at the base of the mountain in downtown Palm Springs.

Avoid parking hassles: park at either of the two downtown parking garages and hop on the Buzz trolley to Colony 29. Shuttles leave every 5 minutes from special stops being established at the N-E intersection of S. Palm Canyon & Baristo Rd. across from the downtown parking garage and at the intersection of W. Tahquitz Canyon Way & S. Cahuilla Rd. in front of the parking garage by the downtown redevelopment project.

Visitors will be able to disembark the Buzz at the S-W corner of W. Arenas Rd. and S. Tahquitz Dr., which is right by the entrance to Colony 29. The Buzz will shuttle visitors back to their vehicles every 5 minutes throughout the evening.

The Expo is FREE to the public. Taste wristbands are $25 for food, wine & beer tasting. For more information or to purchase wristbands, go to pschamber.org or call the Palm Springs Chamber at 760-325- 1577.
