Agua Caliente Casinos and The Desert Symphony have announced a landmark partnership that brings the acclaimed symphonic ensemble to a new permanent stage: The Show at Agua Caliente Resort Casino Spa Rancho Mirage. This collaboration marks a significant milestone for both organizations, combining the symphony’s 36-year legacy of musical excellence with the state-of-the-art acoustics and luxury setting of the Coachella Valley’s premier concert venue.
“We are thrilled to welcome The Desert Symphony to The Show,” said Dan Van Ness, Director of Entertainment at Agua Caliente Casinos. “This new residency partnership allows us to elevate the symphony’s already exceptional performances with the acoustics, comfort, and experience that our venue is known for.”
