In addition to its scenic golf resorts, exciting new venues and attractions continue to open in Greater Palm Springs, like the 11,000-seat Acrisure Arena—home to the Coachella Valley Firebirds hockey team as well as concerts and live events—and the Spa at Séc-he in downtown Palm Springs, where attendees can experience the healing power of the ancient Agua Caliente Hot Mineral Spring.
