Summer Schedule Begins May 26

Memorial Day Weekend marks the official start of the summer season at the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. Extended holiday hours, late-evening weekend trams and early-morning Friday trams are just a few of the ways the Tramway is helping to extend your mountain adventure.

  • In observance of the Memorial Day holiday, weekend hours will be extended through Monday, May 29 with the first car up at 8:00 a.m. each day.
  • Beginning Friday, May 26 and continuing through Saturday, September 2, evening hours will be extended on Fridays and Saturdays with the last car up at 9:00 p.m. and the last car down at 10:30 p.m. Enjoy over an extra hour in the Mount San Jacinto State Park and the sparkling nighttime views of the entire Coachella Valley. Also, Peaks Restaurant will remain open until 8:30 p.m. and Pines Café until 9:30 p.m. on those days.
  • Beginning May 26 and running through September 1 is “Early Fridays.” For those fifteen Fridays, the tram will open two hours early at 8:00 a.m.

According to Tramway Vice President of Sales & Marketing Nancy Nichols, “We are happy to once again offer our summer visitors an extended-hours program. Everyone seems to appreciate additional time to both escape the desert heat and enjoy our pristine Alpine forests.”
