Even though Coachella is over for 2024, Indio city officials issued an advisory for motorists. Amid the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and the Stagecoach Festival, the officials announced that Avenue 50 between Monroe Street and Madison Avenue will be temporarily closed from March 25 to May 6.

Motorists and pedestrians are advised to adjust their commutes accordingly. Recommended detours during the festival period include Highway 111, Dr. Carreon Boulevard, Avenue 48, and Avenue 52.

“The closure of Avenue 50 is essential to ensure the safety of workers, residents, and commuters alike,” said Indio's Community Services Manager Jim Curtis. “By using the recommended alternative routes, we can work together towards another exciting year where we showcase the City of Indio and greater Coachella Valley to those visiting from around the world.”
