Celebrate 40 years of art in the Coachella Valley at the 40th Annual Southwest Arts Festival®, January 29–31, 2027, at its new home at Acrisure Arena.
One of the region’s most celebrated annual art events, the Southwest Arts Festival® brings together talented artists from across the country for a three-day celebration featuring traditional, contemporary and abstract fine art, jewelry, sculpture, photography, ceramics and other quality handcrafted works.
For its milestone 40th year, the festival is moving to the east portion of Acrisure Arena’s main parking lot, providing greater visibility, easier access and a more central Coachella Valley location than its previous venue.
The new location also brings an expanded festival experience. OVG Hospitality (OVGH), the exclusive hospitality partner of Acrisure Arena, will oversee the festival’s food truck area, featuring a variety of Coachella Valley cuisine along with favorites from The Oasis Grill.
Guests will also be able to enjoy a beer and wine garden and a signature Southwest Arts Festival® desert-inspired craft margarita, adding another uniquely Coachella Valley element to the weekend.
Whether you’re a longtime festival attendee, an avid art collector or experiencing the Southwest Arts Festival® for the first time, join them as they celebrate four decades of art, creativity and community in the Coachella Valley.
