About Desert Mischief

Part gift shop, part adult store, Desert Mischief sits on North Palm Canyon Drive in downtown Palm Springs, having moved up from its longtime Arenas Road address. The front of the store is all daylight browsing: souvenirs, greeting cards, candles, Pride merchandise, and Palm Springs-themed gifts you can actually bring home to family. Head to the back and the inventory shifts to adult toys, accessories, and gear skewing toward gay and bi men, set apart for privacy. A longtime listing on the Gay Desert Guide, it's the kind of place that works for a quick magnet-and-postcard run or a more discreet shopping trip in the same stop. Open daily except Tuesdays, with late hours on Thursdays, so it fits around a downtown dinner or a stroll up Palm Canyon.
