About Palm Springs International Film Festival 2027 (38th edition)
Awards-season Hollywood decamps to the desert for 12 days of premieres, celebrity tributes and Best of the Fest screenings across Palm Springs. The 38th edition opens with the Film Awards gala on January 7 - the unofficial kickoff of Oscar season - with opening night screenings January 8 and closing night January 17. Stars, agents and film lovers fill town for nearly two straight weeks.
Villa life beats a hotel here: the festival is a circuit of venues across the valley, so a private home base with parking, a pool and room to host turns a hotel run into a proper desert retreat between screenings.

How we screen every stay
Every home we represent is someone's personal residence, in a real neighborhood, and we've committed to the owner and their neighbors that we'll place it only with guests whose plans fit the home. So, like most professionally managed homes, we confirm a few details with every guest before a reservation is finalized — who is staying, the purpose of the trip, and agreement to the house rules and rental agreement. This is the same for everyone who books with us, and it's meant to protect you too: it keeps the neighborhood quiet and welcoming, keeps the home in the condition you expect, and ensures the property truly matches what you need. Once confirmed with the homeowner, we'll send the final quote for signature within one business day.
- Maximum occupancy is the number shown for each home — no additional overnight guests, no day visitors beyond the registered group.
- No undisclosed parties, events, gatherings, dinners, or photo/film shoots. Any event must be disclosed in advance, approved by the homeowner in writing, and paid for (event fee/deposit), and must follow city ordinance and house rules.
- The primary guest must be 25+ (or the owner's minimum), must be staying on-site, and signs the rental agreement and provides ID.
- Pet policy: pets by approval only. Service and assistance animals are always welcome — tell us in advance.
- Quiet hours 10 PM–8 AM; this is a residential neighborhood.
- Every guest is screened and the homeowner has final approval on every reservation.
