Tourists enjoying White Party not deterred by wet weather
Thousands of men are in the valley for White Party weekend. The festivities and pool parties kicked off Friday in Palm Springs.
With blue skies peaking through gray clouds with occasional liquid sunshine falling, folks partying by the pool for White Party were not deterred from putting on Speedos and having a good time.
White Party brings thousands of gay men from around the world to the Coachella Valley.
“Tickets are ahead of last year; amazingly more tickets sold from around the world than ever before, the weather hasn’t effected the spirit or the energy of these boys, they love coming to Palm Springs,” said Phil Lobel, publicist for White Party.
Some tourists from colder parts of the country were a little disappointed they weren’t going to get as tan this weekend as they would have liked.
“This is actually a little mundane right now but it’s a relaxing time by the pool then tonight and tomorrow it’s going to really turn up and have a good time,” said David Bachman from Atlanta, Georgia.
Tickets are still on sale at the door for all the white party events this weekend.
