Ferris wheel takes Palm Springs Pride to new heights
KESQ News Team
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (KESQ) – Palm Springs Pride reached new heights this weekend — literally — with the debut of a 100-foot Ferris wheel that quickly became one of the festival’s biggest attractions.
Throughout the day, long lines formed as attendees waited for their turn to take in sweeping views of Palm Canyon Drive and the colorful crowds below. The towering ride offered a one-of-a-kind vantage point over the heart of downtown, adding a new dimension to this year’s celebration.
But many festivalgoers say the Ferris wheel is just part of what makes Palm Springs Pride so unique. It’s the atmosphere — the combination of community spirit, desert backdrop, and inclusive energy — that gives the event its signature feel.
From high above downtown to the lively streets below, the sense of connection and celebration could be felt everywhere. The weekend continues with a full lineup of performances, parties, and community events, all leading up to Sunday’s highly anticipated Pride Parade.
