Join Brothers of the Desert in celebration of Black History Month, the Palm Springs Black History Committee, (PSBHC) and the City of Palm Springs are proud to announce the 39th Annual City of Palm Springs Black History Month Parade and Town Fair.

The 2026 national theme is: “A Century of Black History Commemorations” — honoring the legacy of Carter G. Woodson, who launched Negro History Week in the 1920s, which later evolved into Black History Month as we know it today. This month is a time to celebrate the resilience, achievements, culture, and historic contributions of African Americans.

Brothers of the Desert is invited to be a part of this vibrant celebration by joining our 2026 Black History Month Parade.

The parade will take place along Palm Canyon Drive in downtown Palm Springs, beginning at Baristo Road and ending at Amado Road. The parade route is approximately one mile long, making it an enjoyable and walkable experience for participants and spectators alike. Immediately following the parade, we invite you to enjoy the Town Fair at Downtown Park, located near the Palm Springs Art Museum.
