When visitors inquire about fun dancing spots in Palm Springs, a frequent reply is Toucans Tiki Lounge. During the past 13 years, the owners and staff have established this gay nightclub and bar at 2100 N. Palm Canyon Drive as an everyman (and woman) hangout.
It draws loyal patrons, including talk show host Ross Mathews, and is home to Tommi Rose and the Playgirls, a Sunday-night entertainment staple and arguably the most well-known drag revue in the Coachella Valley. In addition, Toucans hosts popular after-parties for plenty high-brow events, such as Palm Springs International Film Festival and Cinema Diverse screenings.
