News from: City of Indio

As the City of Indio gears up for its vibrant festival season, preparations are in full swing, leading to the temporary closure of Avenue 50 between Monroe Street and Madison Avenue. The closure is effective from March 25-May 6, 2024.

Motorists and pedestrians are advised to adjust commutes accordingly and recommended detours during the festival period include Highway 111, Dr. Carreon Boulevard, Avenue 48, and Avenue 52.

“The closure of Avenue 50 is essential to ensure the safety of workers, residents, and commuters alike,” said Jim Curtis, Community Services Manager. “By using the recommended alternative routes, we can work together towards another exciting year where we showcase the City of Indio and greater Coachella Valley to those visiting from around the world.”

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will be held at the Empire Polo Club on April 12, 13 and 14 and April 19, 20 and 21, and Stagecoach will take place April 26, 27 and 28.
