Letting go of stress and setting your sights on a scenic La Quinta, California-bound adventure is always a good choice when you need to relax, reset, and unwind. This year, consider planning your getaway over Memorial Day when area festivities are underway, and you can celebrate in style alongside family and friends. The following activities and events are just a few of the many you’ll want to be sure to add to your itinerary when you plan a 2025 Memorial Day in La Quinta getaway.
Get Ready to Enjoy Warm Holiday Weather Ahead
While summer temperatures have a way of soaring in La Quinta each year, those who travel this way for Memorial Day will find they can enjoy more comfortable temperatures and spend more time outdoors before those seasonal temperature spikes roll in. By May, daily highs typically reach the low to mid-90s in La Quinta, but evening temperatures dip down into the upper 60s. This means that you can extend your plans for time in nature throughout the afternoon and still make the most of evening patio dining opportunities as well this Memorial Day.
Attend a Family-Friendly Concert in the Park
If you’re spending time in La Quinta over Memorial Day Weekend this year with the entire family in tow, you’ll want to be sure to check out the community concert that will be hosted at SilverRock Park on May 24, 2025. The performances get underway at 7:30 pm and are slated to run until 10:00 pm. There’s no cost to attend, and SilverRock Park is conveniently located at 51900 SilverRock Way in La Quinta. Be sure to bring a chair so you can settle in by the amphitheater as soon as you arrive. If you get here early, be sure to take some time to explore the park’s lake and stream, stroll the walking paths, or admire the art pads and scenic open spaces.
Enjoy a Memorial Day Weekend Disco
For those who are looking forward to traveling to La Quinta over Memorial Day in 2025 and can’t wait to elevate the energy factor of their stay, the DaddyPop! Memorial Day Disco with DJ Matt Consola is a must this year. Plan on attending this fun and vibrant event on May 25 from 2:00 pm until 7:00 pm at REFORMA in nearby Palm Springs. Attendees are invited to come by and dance the afternoon and evening away in glamorous lighting, enjoying the best of remixed disco beats. Go-go dancers will most certainly be a part of the experience and those 21 and up can participate in the fun for $20 at the door. If you happen to have a thirst to quench after all the dancing, you’ll find domestic beers are on sale for $3 during the event, and wells are readily available for $7.
Explore Lake Cahuilla Veterans Regional Park
Memorial Day is a great time to reflect on those who have served the country and get into nature and appreciate time with family and friends too. You can do both activities with ease when you make time on your getaway itinerary this Memorial Day for a stop at Lake Cahuilla Veterans Regional Park in La Quinta. You’ll find Lake Cahuilla Veterans Regional Park located on Jefferson Street, and it’s a fantastic place to enjoy everything from boating and fishing to picnicking and strolling nature trails. In total, the park spans 710 acres of scenic terrain, and a highlight of a visit this way is always the stunning mountain views. Just 6 miles southeast of Old Town La Quinta, this park is easy to reach and a great place to enjoy time in the fresh air and sunshine with those you love most.
Take a Terrific Memorial Day Hike
La Quinta is packed with amazing hiking trails to check out all year long, but if you’re here over Memorial Day in 2025 and looking for a moderately difficult route to explore, the Boo Hoff Trail in tandem with the Bear Creek Trail Loop is always a good choice. This trail is 3.9 miles in length and takes about an hour and forty-five minutes to complete. While you’ll only have around 495 feet in elevation change to manage, you’ll enjoy making your way along a route that goes through Cove Oasis and right into the heart of the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountain National Monument. Desert scenery is on full display along this trail too, giving landscape photographers ample reason to bring their camera along for the journey.
