This is a fun day out, particularly if you have a group and enjoy a tailgate experience. It is, you understand, a polo match. If you get there early enough, say by 10 am, you can pull up near the field, unload your tent, or umbrella and chairs and sit on the side lines and watch the event. People do it right, sometimes with three or four spaces adjacent and tables and kegs and lots of friends. We did it with a small group and some coolers and chairs and it was lots of fun.Your dog is welcome (on the leash). Your kids are welcome. Its just fun. Parking is $20 per car, no entrance fee to the event. There are two sides to the field, one is less expensive and has a place to buy beer and drinks and food as well as souvenirs. There is one portapottie. Ugh.Dress is a gamut from casual to coronation formal. Hats optional, but sun block is not optional, bring it.

Great entertainment for the price! Bring your wine and picnic items, and chairs or blanket to sit on. At the break you can walk or on the field and take pics with a polo pony and rider. Remember to stomp out those hoof marks! Facility is just beautiful. Really fun activity with friends.

Wonderful time at the Coachella Music Festival. The rose garden smells so good and looks beautiful. The grounds were clean especially considering the music festival. So, this is inside a desert bowl. It was windy. Very hot in the day. Very hot at night. Dust was everywhere. It was a cool time considering the festival, but I wonder if a wedding or a polo event would be like here.

I didnt really experience the Polo club but I will tell you this, it is a huge area with plenty of seating and space to watch whatever event is happening. I attended Coachella music festival and there was plenty of space! Everything was amazing and I can only imagine what the Polo club really looks like because they had a C-section for people in wheelchairs, a slight Hill where you can see the fields and a great setup for restrooms and entrances.

Coachella Festival of Arts is held here. It is a magnificent place to visit during the event and it is beautiful year round. I have even gone to see some of the polo horses play and that is so awesome. Those horses can really scramble after the ball. It is something to see if you have never seen a horse in action. They are awesome.

Live coming here for lacrosse tournaments. The grounds are huge and even with shuttles and tons of stuff giving directions you find yourself at times wishing it was a bit smaller. Nonetheless this is an outstanding venue and a can’t miss for bucket listing places to play lacrosse.

Enormous, grand, sprawling grounds, surrounded by mountains on all sides, lying beneath the hot California sun make this one of the best places in the world to see a concert. Or a polo match, too, I guess. I spent three magical days and nights there at the 2016 Desert Trip concert. Never to be forgotten.

Well it’s been 9 weeks now since my 12 yo daughter fell from a horse w your trainer, landed on her head as was unconscious. No one has returned my calls or emails. No one has even reached out to inquire if she is OK. Where is your integrity? You guys really should be ashamed.

The grounds are very well kept and there are obvious improvements made between one year and the next. The plant life and the various facilities that are on the property are fresh and well maintained. The only downside for the grounds is that the air tends to be very dusty. This causes a dry cough for a few days

This place is amazing, the grounds are always kept up and it can hold over 20,000 plus attendances. The festivals held here are always great. They have Coachella every year and I hope it stays that way. Its a must try if you are ever in the area. Coachella is happening this coming up weekend also. I hope to see you all there.

Coachella Weekend 2. Very dusty, lots of wind, pretty dang hot during the day. But thats the Coachella experience, and it was worth every dollar spent. If youve never been, go next year. Highly recommend, but bring a bandana or face mask to mitigate the dust and save your throat/nose.

Amazing concerts and the venue overall is nice. However the yellow trail is a huge negative as the ROCKY terrain is dangerous to walk on and is half mile long! The people are extremely self absorbed and rude! They walk all over you and your stuff.

Looking forward to the music, but the ADA experience has been less than satisfactory. Walk from ADA parking is waaaay to far from stages. Noticed once we were in there is a PAID area which is adjacent to Ferris Wheel that would be best for those who have limited mobility. Access is flat and straight from the Companion paid parking.Look, the State of California has finally cracked down on fake ADA placards, and the CHP has a station cracking down on ADA abuse at your venue, so how about FINALLY parking the ADA at the entrance, just like every other business in CA.Trust me, the folks who pay to park will still pay to park as close as their bucks will allow, even if its 1000 feet farther to walk past the ADA section.

Been a fan of polo for ever but didnt expect to see a quality game in America. Backdrop of mountains with snow on them unbelievable. UK backdrop would be rain. ..last time I watched a game. Bring your own food and drinks essential. Stupid prices for awful alcohol and food.

Here for Coachella. Having very bad experience with the staff here. We were waiting for at least 2 hours. And anyone can cut lines, let anyone in, stop anyone, pick a who goes first, especially if they are pretty and wearing revealing clothes. This was very horrible.
